As far as the books go, once Young Griff appeared and Varys did that bit with Kevan, it seemed that he was definitely working towards "Aegon" being put on the throne. Who knows though, but at least from the text I don't get the impression that Dany is who him and Illyrio actually want on the throne.

I pretty much agree with you about the show. I don't know what they're doing with Varys. Gonna assume you didn't watch the leaked episodes, so I won't spoil anything. All I can say is we were right. They are definitely not going to spoil the plot of the remaining books. This season is completely different than what was happening contemporaneously in AFfC and ADwD.

If you watched the leaked episodes:
 
WTF did they do to Sansa. And Mance...... if that dude is really dead, they took out a major part of the books. I guess it makes sense since he wouldn't be needed to steal back "Arya," but seriously...
