25 reasons we wish Robb Stark from Game of Thrones was still alive

5. Richard was Fun to Watch

Again, Richard Madden was just a joy to have on screen, as he always is. If you haven’t seen Cinderella yet, Richard truly makes that movie so enjoyable because he’s just fun to watch. And he brought that same energy and joy to Robb. Watching him as a Stark was really where most of his fans fell in love with him.

Richard is truly missing from the show. Not literally but in feeling too. For someone who loved Robb and everything Richard brought to him, the show just feels bland and darker now that he is gone. The only other light for a while was Pedro Pascal and we all know what happened to him.

So if Robb was still alive, Richard’s joy and energy would still be a part of the show. We’d get to enjoy having him around and remember what it was like to see Robb on our television screens week after week. Even having him come back in some flashbacks would be great. We’d get to still have that joy and wouldn’t have to completely change the events of the show!

Basically just get Richard back on Game of Thrones in some capacity. Do it for our sanity.
