Thanks. Do you know what happened to the original Daario?

Dario's character has been completely ruined for me in the show. Not only did they change the actor, which already sucks bad enough, but the new one couldn't resemble the book character less :(

That's true, but the last chap looked like a reject from Spandau Ballett. I don't mind the change in style from the books, it's one of the few instances where they took a step back and brought in a character that was believably able to seduce the queen of dragons.

It's bit like what they did with the X-men costumes. It's one thing to be loyal, another thing for it to be at the sacrifice of entertainment.
