Oh there's plenty of hints that Tyrion might not be Tywin's son (you missed the clearest one, "Men’s laws give you the right to bear my name and display my colors since I cannot prove that you are not mine", Tywin S3E1). Whether that's a real possibility or wishful thinking on Tywin's part we don't know.
But there's nothing about the Aerys possibility in the show other than that Dany's dragons don't eat Tyrion. There's no way that would give rise to the theory if it wasn't for the other hints from the books. This is why the no bookreaders thing is kind of silly imo, even though I'm avoiding discussing certain things ITT now (for example, I deliberately didn't reply to antneye's post originally). The Tyrion theories are all over Game of Thrones media articles. Avoiding contact with the expanded universe involves not reading anything about Game of Thrones online ever.
