Not sure the show has done things better so much as some of the actors have brought the characters to life in ways that made me enjoy those characters sooooo much more in the show than in the books. Examples:

Khal Drogo: Jason Mamoa rocked that role and I became a fan of Drogo and his chemistry with Dany, whereas in the book I didn't give him a lot of thought.

Robb Stark: He seemed a minor character in the books to be honest, but I liked him MUCH better on the show.

Marjory Tyrell: Another one who did little for me in the books, but has been great on the show.

I'm sure there are others, but those came to mind first.
