), Weiss said it was the ****** of villainous characters that he was particularly fond of.

He said the show ******* so many good guys early on, with Sean Bean’s Ned Stark famously getting his head lopped off before the end of the first season. Later on, though, came Weiss’ favorite deaths: Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) and Ramsay (Iwan Rheon).

“We finally got to really ***** both Joffrey in season 4 and Ramsay Bolton in season 6. It was fun to go back to the old-fashioned joys of just ******** off a really bad guy,” he said. His ****** felt like it was “balancing the scales a little,” Weiss said as it relates to good guys vs. bad guys getting whacked.

Benioff said the scene is particularly powerful because instead of showing the hounds mauling Ramsay up close, the viewer sees the reaction of Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner)–which is a smile. As viewers no doubt recall, Ramsay rapes Sansa on their wedding night.

“It was all in one shot, and we did it seven times or something… She nailed it on the seventh or eighth time, and it was just that feeling of–that’s so epic. Sophie was so good. When she got that shot, I felt like I can now **** happy,” Benioff said of Ramsay’s ******.
