Yeah...I initially had skipped the re-cap due to a really late viewing, but the show runners explain that he thought his daughter was at his side... What I got out of this also, was that as long as "someone"...bastard or not...had some Targaryan blood...they could fulfill his interpretation of the prophesy he swore to carry forward in his line of succession.....he really was OK with the truth about his grandkids....he just didn't know it would be a few more centuries for his "progressive" views to be vindicated....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) I really appreciate that the fandom has dubbed Daemon “The King of F*ck Around and Find Out.” He’s my favorite Targaryen from the histories, and I’m very happy to see how show watchers have fallen in love with the character.

Mog Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Dude was a punk-ass at the beginning. But has slowly become more interesting and nuanced. Still a bastard. But seems to have toned it down some, only bringing out the a-hole when necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Four seasons is what I was thinking. Seems right for this story. House of the Dragon will run for 4 10-episode seasons, George R.R. Martin confirms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

505thAirborne Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) I did not see that coming! With next week being the Season Finale, I hope it's not a super long wait until the next one. Spoiler I honestly thought Rhaenys was just making a run for it... getting her Dragon back and making a grand entrance/escape was not on my bingo card.

Mog Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Spoiler Guess someone let the cat, erm, dragon, out of the bag! Should’ve went full dracarys on the whole lot of ‘em. Dumb question: what place were they burning? The house with the kid snuff fights? The White Worm’s place. Or the servants’ quarters (where Alicent’s servant would possibly be)? Didn’t seem too clear.

Rhaenys didn’t roast them because she wasn’t about to commit regicide and become a kinslayer multiple times over. Never mind the septon and other lords there. It’s just not in her character. It also would have gone disastrously for the Blacks. Edited October 17, 2022 by Duke Togo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the whole rumored “Rhaenyra may have had a hand in your son’s death” bit might have kept her from being fully Team Black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Episode 10 leaked late in the week, beware of spoilers on social media. If you’re wondering what the leak is, it’s a low-bitrate HD copy with Hebrew subtitles. Me, I’m waiting for the Sunday release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) And that’s the season. Spoiler We have two seasons and change of action ahead of us, but, we’ll have to wait until 2024 for more. As for this episode, the two stand outs for me are multiple name drops for my favorite character, Cregan Stark, and the debut of my favorite dragon, Vermithor the Bronze Fury (the dragon Daemon is singing too).

Duke Togo Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) For the episode’s climax, Spoiler it seems pretty clear that the outcome is not what Aemond was going for. He essentially bullies Lucerys to death on his dragon. Didn’t grasp his own strength or the danger that comes with it. Truly tragic.

Mog Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Read this in an article, so can’t take credit for noticing it. . . Spoiler but the page that Rhaenyra tore out back in episode one does remind Rhaenyra of her old friendship. BUT it also is the story about Nymeria, a ruler who fought off her enemies and established her own kingdom where evens daughters can inherit the crown. Wonder if Alicent understands the irony in sending that particular story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
