While i really loved what the younger cast did, i honestly dont miss them. The emotional span older and more experienced cast members have is exactly what this show needed and Emma D'Arcys characterwork with Rhaenyra is finally getting the attention it deservers. Amazing through and through, and the energy between her and Matt Smith is just perfection.
Boy, I never thought S1 would be this good. Its not surpringing that the show is breaking viewer number even good GoT eps got.
I expect it to rise ever further going forward och I couldnt be happier with what we got. Passing insanely high expectrations is really tough, but HoD really did it. Aplaude!

This episode is just perfect in every way.
More and more characters are showing their true colors, people claiming other dragons for themselves, stabbings and backstabbings, seeds of a civil war being sown, relationship dynamics of pretty much everyone changing.
This is the episode where ish really hit the fans and characters stop being coy and show their true intentions to each other, especially Rhaenyra and Alicent.
I really loved that the twists kept coming and multiple times throughout the episode, even till the end, the character we were rooting for just 3 minutes ago does something and becomes a pos immediately, and it shows that none of the characters here, at least the main ones, is that good and all of them are drowning in depravity as Rhaenyra herself said.
Last episode that we were introduced to the children, they were mostly side characters and had a less direct impact on the events of the episode and the show as a whole, but in this episode they're pretty much the main characters as they start a domino effect of a series of unfortunate events that escalates quickly and is gonna change the course of history.
Everything in this episode was pretty much perfect, from the direction and the pacing which got more intense and escalated as the episode went on, to the acting, music, and cinematography, and the great twists and the writing. Though the CGI isn't perfect, it is still acceptable and I'm sure this season definitely doesn't have the budget that GOT had for later seasons. It is still really good, but it's still noticeable in scenes where people are flying a dragon.
All in all, this was a great and enjoyable episode and the starter of a chain reaction that will presumably lead to even more intense episodes and events in the following episodes.

Many events have occurred in one of the strongest episodes since the beginning of the show, which includes many decisive situations and unexpected events that will lead to the continuation of the fire and blood conflict.
It seems that the series will take us further than expected, and this is what we always want." And by the end of the sixth episode, the indicators were leading to a successful seventh episode by all standards.
I hope you have a lot of fun and excitement for all the upcoming episodes .
House of the dragon each episode will evolve from better to better and we will have an enjoyable watching with the conclusion and these are my expectations.

To see the famous Eye for an Eye scene adapted so flawlessly on my screen was a sight to behold. I have been waiting for this scene since the show was announced 3 years ago and it does not disappoint. Everybody delivers in this episode, but for me the stand outs were Aemond, Alicent & Viserys. Watching Olivia Cooke in that episode was exactly how i envisioned Alicent to be, from the hair, to the costumes, to the dialogue, she truly shined tonight. The show looked gorgeous tonight, including the night scenes, i've seen some complaints about how dark it was and people couldn't see, i hate to tell you but those are your TV settings, not the show, these are the clearest night scenes they have ever done, it looked great on my TV.
Best episode of the season hands down. While i have enjoyed every episode of the season thus far, i can understand people's frustrations and confusion with the constant time jumps, the good news is that the time jumps are officially over next week and i'm ready for the main story to begin with the tensions at an all time high!

Well this part moved at very fast pace. The unusual relationship between daemon and rhenyra has been officialised in this part. The clear evidence of green vs black's war is shown in this season.
The prophecies are important part of the story and in this one you'll see one truelly happening.so from next time I ll pay more attention to Helena because everytime she speaks it will be the climax of next episode. The screenplay is very smooth.dialogues are compact and poetic while you are watching please focus the dialogue between daemon and rhenyra where daemon says "at least i got a chance to mourn " The only negative point was the lighting. There is already lot of comments and memes circulated about the bad lighting. Overall a joy to watch.
