They have made him seem a little more twirling-the-mustache villain, as opposed to the wittier, more subtle player-behind-the-scenes - though ulitmately not all that pleasant when it comes to getting what he wants - that he was in the novel.

Yup, pretty much exactly this. He seems to have had too many scenes in which he's being made to look foolish (Cersei, his plea to Cat in the last episode), and I'm wondering if it's not intentional.

Edit: He seems to be overdoing it in these scenes, is what I'm trying to say.
