Joffrey’s death at his wedding is a prime example of a widely shared, shocking moment, largely because everyone disliked the character so much. Some viewers might be disappointed to learn that the new A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms series introduces a similarly unpleasant character from House Targaryen.
