Me: "Uh oh...Myrcella is probably !@#$ed here..."

It really is incredibly obvious when they're going to off someone at this point. I'm talking 'nail it down to the minute' kind of obvious.
Even as a book reader who is pretty sure that Myrcella doesn't die, I could spot it. If you're going in without any pre-conceived notions as to who lives or dies, how could that have been even the slightest bit surprising?
The only thing that might have made it actually surprising/interesting would have been had Ellaria actually done it knowing that it would kill her. If she didn't have an antidote but just didn't care, killed Myrcella in an act of pure vengeance (and to start a war) and then died a martyr for it. That would've been surprising and awesome.
But nope...just another telegraphed dead person. I really REALLY hate the direction they took Dorne this season.
