Varys
The Spider has the wherewithal and the cold-blooded streak to poison Joffrey “for the good of the realm” but I don’t see him risking doing something this public; Varys is a plot in the shadows type of dude who plays the long game and murdering Joffrey at this point doesn’t really do much to further Varys’ own agenda of seeing a Targeryan back on the throne.

Probably could add all of King’s Landing to the suspect list to be honest.

Having read the books I know who killed him and that person is indeed on your list.

I am still wondering if the show will try to throw some curveballs and change things up this season.

Not a spoiler since we just saw it: If i reemmber correctly, there was zero mention of Theon in Storm of Swords, it wasn’t until the later books (not sure if it was feast or dragons) that you get introduced to some character named Reek and learn later on that it’s Theon. Same deal with Asha, no mention of her at all in the book. I thought it was a cool drop for the book nerds to end off with Ramsay coming up with Reek

I have to admit to enjoying the liberties the show has taken with the books…I am not that big of a hardliner when it comes to adaptations I guess.
And Martin had a bit of a penchant for taking characters we know and having them function under aliases for long stretches without letting the readers in on just who they really were. That definitely wouldn’t work as well on TV.
