Addy was awesome indeed. No two actors on the show have had the chemistry and screen presence like him and Sean Bean had together imo
I agree about the shadow baby, I remember being underwhelmed when I read that. Also slightly confused lol. A Baratheon brother battle would have been epic.

Addy did make him so entertaining, though I thought Addy was very underrated in his performance of Robert and yes, he did make him more likable. I forgot who had the line (it was either Ned or Catelyn)...something to the effect of not knowing Robert the man but Robert the King, the implication is that he had obviously changed over the years and not for the better. I wish more was done with Renly in the books and the show. Renly had potential. I really thought at one point he and Stannis' armies would have a huge battle and it would be brother versus brother. I really hated that Renly died via shadow baby.Yep. It was very anticlimatic and... lazy, I think. I wish that George had explored a bit on the motivations of Renly, his relationship with Loras and his true feelings for his brothers. We never really got to know him. Renly, as a character, deserved better.
