Game of thrones really doesn't have much violence when it comes down to it. I've been far more shocked by vikings on regular cable than I have been by got on HBO.

While it doesn't have the quantity of violence that Vikings has, when it does have violence they make sure it is quality violence.
One question. Does Tywin "know" that Tyrion is innocent and is just pushing the trial as a way to get rid of his least favorite son? Tywin is so intelligent and seems to be such a good judge of peoples character that I can't help but wonder if his brain was running on all cylinders that he would damn well know Tyrion just isn't sloppy enough to assassinate someone in such an obvious incriminating fashion that would end with him holding the bag.

it hasn't been said, one way or the other.
that said, he's a smart guy and he could possibly reason that Tyrion doesn't really have anything to gain by assassinating Joffrey (tbh, Tywin is probably glad it happened)... but he did plan on using the trial to get everything he wanted, though, by sending Tyrion into exile at the Wall and getting Jamie to take his rightful place as the Lord of Casterly Rock.
how about:
he did the trial to force Jamie out of kingsguard and carry on the lannister name
you guys forget someone has to take the fall or the people who did it can never rest.
The only person that really seems to care about it is Cersei, and she is convinced Tyrion did it, evidence be damned!
That seems like a rather elaborate ruse to gamble Jaime would offer to spare Tyrion's life (if he truly believed he was innocent) to further taint his honor. Nobody, save for Jaime and Brienne, know why Jaime killed the Mad King. And it wasn't until Jaime confronted Tywin that Tywin even know Aerys commanded Jaime to bring him Tywin's head.
Did Varys know about the plot and murder of Joffrey?
Yeah, I'm thinking less and less that Tywin was involved--knowing LF plotted with the Tyrells, I don't see much room or need for Tywin in the plan (...unless holding the queen's seat open for Margaery, to relieve much of their debt, was part of it...); but Tywin seemed all too happy or, at the very least, completely ambivalent over the death of Joffs. It's pretty clear that he never liked the little prick anyway.
I'm still leaning 90% towards Tyrion picking Jamie to fight for him. Seems like the right play, because nothing would piss off daddy more than that. And Jamie will use his solid gold hand to club his opponent, as we saw in the Bronn fight.
