Game of Thrones, everyone is basically a villain but some of them are actually alright (like the Hound and Jamie).

I think Jaime becomes a good guy. He starts out as a bad guy but he had a redemption arc.

He starts out as a nepo-baby and then has to actually do shit throughout the show.

Not everyone i thought jon, robert, ned, arya,hoddor and tyrrion was good and thats from the top of my head.

Did they make Jamie less of a tool in the show or something? Cause in the books he basically just goes back to doing what he was doing before, minus one hand and plus lots of moping.

Yes, very significantly. Jamie in the show introspected on the person he used to be and clearly grew. I think books Jamie was meant to feel the same way but got less focus to demonstrate that growth.

They did for a long time, having him gradually come around and begin to redeem himself, and then made an incredibly confusing decision to have him suddenly revert to his old ways right at the very end with no warning whatsoever
