I understand why they're not showing much of Sansa in these previews.
Her entire storyline for this season is a BIG ASS spoiler, and considering most of her scenes are in the Eeryie it's difficult to show her without giving everything away for the non-book readers.
I'm so excited though, Sansa and Cersei are singlehandedly the BEST thing about a Feast for Crows.
How are they gonna manage to make up for Tyrion, Jon and Daenerys absenses in the future?
I haven't read A Feast For Crows yet but it had terrible reviews from the critics and the GP.

Okay so AFFC and ADWD occur simultaneously. They just have different characters and different settings. So their going to just fuse those books into one massive story spanning over 2 seasons.(after this one) So Jon, Tyerion and Dany won't be absent from the show.
“Your readers may be interested to know that the 15-minute presentation Game of Thrones Ice and Fire: A Foreshadowing will debut Sunday, February 9 at 8:45 pm (ET/PT), exclusively on HBO, just before the debut of a new episode of True Detective. Offering a look back and a look forward to the fourth season of the hit HBO series, the show features clips from upcoming episodes, behind-the-scenes-footage, interviews with talent, and cast members’ answers to questions posed by fans.”
Really? They are going to lose a lot of viewers with no Danny for at least more than 3 episodes tbh.
LMAO.
No.
Daenerys has already missed a couple episodes back to back and to be honest people love the show for the ensemble, not the one character.
Her storyline goes on a nosedive from now on IMHO so she peaked this last season. I couldn't care less if she misses the whole season tbh (she won't.).
I also hope they make the Queen of Thorn's character's storyline this season a little bit juicier, perhaps expand on her, ehm, plotting.
I love the character so much and Diana Rigg is absolutely amazing on it, specially considering it's most likely the last season for the character, at least for the foreseeable future.
Not to sound like a broken record, but A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons will not provide three seasons worth of material, two would be a stretch; a lot of the chapters are heavily descriptive travelogues that can be translated very quickly with visuals on screen.
How for example, would Brienne and Jaime's storylines last more than one year? Bran's will be almost finished by the end of Season 4, Dany's arc in ADWD is beginning this year and would be finished by Season 5 etc. Unless you want a lot of episodes like Dark Wings, Dark Words.
The Meereenese knot was Martin's toughest challenge in writing the books so far, and is the main reason why the manuscript for the original A Dance with Dragons had to be split into two, and delayed events that would have happened directly after A Storm of Swords (with the aid of a time jump) to the Winds of Winter.
The producers are going to do their best to get the myriad of plots and characters that center around the future conflict in Essos in place as efficiently as possible as to avoid the same criticisms of endless plot with no sense of forward momentum that the books had. We are going to start getting WoW material in 2015, there's no doubt about it.
