Not dead in the books.

In my opinion, the biggest mistake the show producers make is kill off Ser Barristan. He's like literally the most shitwrecking badass in the world in the book, even though advanced in age. And I love how he is portrayed. The face, the voice, the attitude, everything is perfect. As Kevin says, he really is Obi Wan Kenobi-ish.

The fact that a badass character like Ser Barristan Selmy only got 20 minutes of screentime reflects poorly on the directors.

sir barristan cut down 14 harpies like craving a cake.

"here boy" the man who talked down a king and lived.

"He was a painter, a painter who only used red."

The fact that we never actually see Ser Barristan Selmy in true action makes it more intense as to imagining how good he was.

honestly, Barristan died like he predicted: like a goddamn badass knight

He may not be one of the main characters, but Ser Barristan Selmy will always be one of my favorite characters.

I think the show are overdoing the fact that they kill off everyone. Barristan was supposed to be a fucking legend and we barely got to see that. Shame. The actor was great playing him too really wish we got to see more of him

In the books whenever Joffrey kicks him out of the King's guard, Selmy kills two City Watch on his way out of King's Landing - without a damn sword. lol

I always thought Selmy's death was badly done but re-watching he did take out at least 12 of them 1 after the other. Few fighters could do that.

The one caracter that should NEVER have died. I would have love to see him to the shows conclusion if a new king of queen would be crowned. A rightious and careing one, Befitting a Kingsguard who holds the same values.

Warriors rarely grow old , only the great ones do ...

Ser Barristan had honor at every step of his life. We should all be so bold.

Barristan Selmy.

I would've loved to see Sir barriston cut down the king's guard members in the throne room when daenerys takes the 7 kingdoms, would be such justice to see him destroy them, even at his age

Stannis may be the Mannis but BarriSTAN is the MAN.
