Well...hello there! Welcome back, and that recap video at the beginning of the episode saved me, because I had forgotten so much. Episode 1 was pretty awesome, maybe the best single episode of the entire series so far. As someone else online said, it should have been the finale of season 2, instead of that dud.
Good read here for a quick look at the new characters -

Tommy Flanagan as Ser Roderick Dustin. YES! For all of you Sons of Anarchy fans, this is very welcome news.
Overall, GREAT start, but let's see what happens now.

Re: House of the Dragon
Episode 2 was good, but not as good as episode 1, which would have been pretty tough to pull off. Still, solid start to season 3. Is this it? I cannot remember if they only plan 3 seasons or are we getting more?

Re: House of the Dragon
Apparently I am the only one watching this show. ha! 4 episodes in, pretty good, love the GOT world BUT I think the show has been lapped by A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms. That show just has more heart, and such an enjoyable storyline. HOTD sometimes is a slosh, slow, depressing watch, in-between dragon fights and naval battles. I assume we will have one more season, but I can't see this show going on beyond that.

Re: House of the Dragon
I’ve been watching. The premiere was one of the best episodes. The sea battle was epic.
Just like with GOT, I always have trouble keeping track of who everyone is. I know the faces but can never match the name when they’re being referenced

Say what - you can't tell the difference between Aegon, Aetron, Aerron, Aedon, Aeyon, Aeson, Aejon, Aenon, Aavon, Aeleron, Aemon and Aezon?
For a guy with a big imagination he sure does suck when it comes to naming people.

Re: House of the Dragon
So true, and so much worse with the Targaryen's only have like 3 names for their 27 kids and 52 grandkids. I forget who's mom is who's and kids and other people I forget even were in the show. It's wild.
BUT, this season has been better then season 2.

Re: House of the Dragon
I was watching last night and I had to pause a couple times to google who was who, because I cannot keep everyone straight.
For the love of all things dragon, couldn't you name a kid Brutus the Great, or Skippy the Spectacular, or Billy the Flying Dragon Guy? Good grief. ha

Agree - you need to have a 6'x6' family tree printout to keep everything straight.FrankTheTank wrote: ↑27 Jul 2026 16:39 pm I was watching last night and I had to pause a couple times to google who was who, because I cannot keep everyone straight.

Ser Criston Cole is the realm’s greatest warrior. Barely remembered who he was.
Spoiler
Armies emerge from both directions, arrow, arrow, arrow. That was a bloody scene

Re: House of the Dragon
Sadly, I don't think they are going to sing songs about Ser Criston Cole.
