Aegon (Alicent 1st son) real actor age is 27 years old.
Aemond (Alicent 2nd son) real actor age is 20 years old.
Team Blacks all the way, until Rhaenyra's son ascends the iron throne, thus, ending the Dance🤣
TEAM GREEN BABY🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is the final time jump, so you can rest easy.
I don't know why but the scene at the dinner table with Viserys looking at his family enjoying themselves was such a powerful scene. It made me cry.
same. His whole downfall made me cry. I actually liked him as a character
yeah that was heartbreaking. Its literally all this poor man has wanted his entire life and for him to finally see it at the end of his life, even if it was just a farce, was so emotional. The one good thing about him dying now is that he won't have to sit and suffer through watching his family tear themselves apart
It’s not really that hard to figure out why it would be emotional. Or is it just another thing people say now? Are people just becoming completely incompetent with their emotions and able to process them? If you would cry over the boat dying you might want to ponder a bit. But a dying grandfather, father and husband enjoying his dream before death is to me, extremely obviously sad. I especially since it’s an illusion
It killed me to know that Viserys hadn't seen Rhaenyra or Daemon for six years and that was the first time he got to meet their children.
Damn imagine if Viserys had made Daemon the hand in the first place. So sad
@@nkxseal8398 i like how daemon acted as his hand in that scene lifting the crown helping him to his throne and then executing vaemond nicely done.
daemon is his smaller brother, not son💀
@@sup9023 it’s the way you misunderstood his comment for me💀
@@rexibhazoboa7097 lololol i get it now but how can you blame me, honest mistake💀
When Viserys walked to the door, I started crying, he's not the best king but he loves Rhaenyra so much, has always supported her happiness, and would do anything for her, and Paddy's performance really touched my today.
Give the Emmy to Paddy Considine already 👏
He’s got other kids ya know. Maybe they wouldn’t have turned out like that if he spoke to them lol
That was so emotional 🥹
He's the best king we know.
@@Drpavel564 I got the feeling that he deeply loved them as well. I think Aegon and Aemond are the result of Alicent's influence.
@@gus9663 I agree with you
You'll be happy to hear that there are no more time-skips. The actors in this episode will be the ones who play the characters until the end of the show.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
End of the entire show or end of the season?
@@juwe7143 end of the show
@@juwe7143 Whole show (probably).
Let's go. That means my biggest gripe with this show is finally gone
The reason why Viserys lived so long (at least to me) is attributed to the death of the old maester and the new younger maester taking over his care. While the old maester was treating him, the young maester kept offering different treatment but the old maester kept denying him and sticking to his "maggot" treatment. After the 10 year jump, we see the young maester is the new Grand maester and in charge of his care and viserys is still alive
28:20 A little bit of clarification for you two, spoilers free. Viserys thought he was talking to Rhaenyra due to the recent event where he thought Alicent was the one visiting in his room but it was her, that's why he thought it was her again, but instead it's his wife.
And remember episode 1? on what Viserys told to Rhaenyra? what he's referring to that "dream" was from Aegon the conqueror not Aegon his eldest child. So that "you" was intended for Rhaenyra not for Alicent, now Alicent will take out of context Viserys' last wish of Rhaenyra taking the Iron throne, it will be Aegon his son instead.
Even though Viserys was too out of it to be liable this time, it's been Viserys time and time again, bringing everyone closer to war with his mistakes and decisions
She chooses to hear what she wants. She would do the same no matter what to the smallest provocation. She (and by she, I mean mostly her father through her) raised her children for this. She hated the queer Targaryen customs, yet she married her daughter to her own son, and she clearly suffers for it. Poor Helaena. He said the dream of Aegon, yet she knows her son is no dreamer, she probably doesn’t believe it, as her own daughter appears to have been saying all it could go wrong to their faces and they never acknowledged her. Rhaenyra also has now an Aegon, of purer Targaryen descent than any of her children.
This and future Aegons (cof cof IV) just show they should have retired this name lmao No one will live up to the first.
I'm pretty sure he was talking about Jon which makes it even Clearer how GOT butchered it's last season , lol .
The Aegon being referred is JON SNOW aka AEGON.
@@SeeFair23 comprehend my comment and also what Viserys said. We all know Jon Snow is Aegon VI.
Targaryens somewhat have the ability to prophesize future events just like Daenys Targaryen prophesize the "Doom of Valyria" by dreaming of it. Viserys mentioned to Rhaenyra at ep. 1 then at Alicent this episode, the "dream" of Aegon (conqueror) which is a prophesize event of the future war against the Night King and the rise of the "Prince that was promised" which is Jon. So NO, the Aegon he mentioned is ATC not Jon. Rewatch episode 1 last part for clarification.
I love that Aegon is the one set up with this big role and responsibility but he's clearly Alicent's least favorite child
Yeah, you can see that Aegon is a fruit of neglectful parents, Alicent never educated him properly, especially because she was young and it was her first journey as a mother, Otto wasn't there to support and teach her, let alone educate the boys, from his scene with Aegon in episode 7, you can see that he doesn't like the boy's behavior and if he had been present, the education would have been better. And Viseys never cared about his new children, it's wide open that he has a favoritism for Rhaenyra.
You notice this when you look at Helaena, Aemond and Daeron, they all grew up better than Aegon, showing that Aegon was the typical firstborn failure, when the parents are inexperienced and end up not raising the first child right, but with their mistakes, they learn to better educate the next children. One perfect example of this is the fact that she beats up Aegon, but never raised her hand to her other children, showing that Aegon's education was different.
@@seiyajin8151 Viserys liked his children at first and seemed more excited over him than Rhaenerya. I think it's similar to how when people fawn over a puppy when it's so young and cute and full of promise, but when it gets bigger and less cute and harder to take care of they lose interest. I hate that people like that exist and treat animals that way, but some people are the same with humans, especially in Westeros where children are currency.
It definitely cannot be understated that Alicent was 16 when she gave birth to Aegon. And not an "accidentally got pregnant by her high school boyfriend and had to raise the child together" situation, it was a loveless marriage where she was only there to push out children. I don't blame her at all, in fact it's remarkable that Helaena ended up as she did, as well as Aemond prior to the clear trauma and rebirth that took place in the previous episode which changed him.
Also you can see Alicent comforting Helaena when Vaemond's head is chopped off -- she instantly knew that Helaena wouldn't react well to the violence and went to comfort her daughter. That was her first thought. She isn't the terrible mother people say she is, and the way people grasped at straws in episode 6 to say Helaena not wanting to be touched by her mother was proof of Alicent abusing her children is so false in retrospect.
@@secondeye1574
Yeah, like, he was happy to have a new child, but from what we're shown in the series, he doesn't care that much about them, in Episode 7, Aemond loses an eye and Viserys doesn't even care about the boy, and as soon as Rhaenyra enters the picture, he quickly sides with her to protect her, and ignores his injured son.
You notice the concern he had with Rhaenyra in the early episodes and then you see his treatment of him with his new children of him, and it's quite different, he even calls Rhaenyra "his only child of him".
I don't see Alicent as a bad mother, because Aemond, Helaena and Daeron grew up well, now I would say that she and Viserys were bad parents for Aegon, you can see from Rhaenyra, that Viserys spoils his children, mixes that with Alicent's inexperience with being a mother, and the result ends up being Aegon, who wasn't educated properly.
@@seiyajin8151 Aemond is clearly Alicent's golden child. He inherits her dutifulness but he has the classic Targeryen's fiery personality as well. It's clear that she taught him a lot about his role to serve his family, especially his brother, and what is going to happen.
Aemond always tell Aegon to treat Helaena with respect as she will be his queen one day. This is very important. Aemond always know he will have to fight Rhaenyra's children to put Aegon on the throne. It is most likely that Aemond is the only child Alicent sat down and had 'the talk' with, because he is the only one who has what it takes, and Aemond seems fully embrace his role as his brother's enforcer as he takes his training and education very seriously to the point that one could assume it is *him* who is preparing to rule.
@Adwig25 W They never had a scene of Viserys loving his own children (except for Rhaenyra) The closest we saw of Viserys even liking his children was during the hunt where he was quite happy with Aegon.
The show only depicts Viserys as loving Rhaenyra. Definite favouritism.
"I'll need a tissue on hand too" *wipes off sweat* haha. To be fair this episode was both emotional and nerve-racking
I think he meant used it to cover his eyes to subtly wipe away tears 😂
Daemon is the kind of brother who'll stand for you even if you dislike him... Loved the way he helped viserys get up, and definitely amazing acting by Paddy!
His council kept pouring poison into Viserys' ears warning him of Daemon's ambitions for the throne, which he does he have--he can't deny it. But Viserys knows growing up with him that his little brother genuinely loves him and will never do it at his expense. Even if he is jockeying for a better position to occupy it, he will wait as long as Viserys is the one sitting on the throne.
I love that this was actually an improv scene!!!
Daemon told the Sea Snake early in season that he was not allowed to speak ill of his brother (that only he can voice criticism there, not Corlys), and I recall how Viseerys would be the only one defending his bro at council meetings. Had Otto not poured so much poison about Daemon into the King’s ears for over 20 years, I believe he would be fine with Rhaynerya marrying Daemon, and may have even accepted him as his hand.
Yeah I really got that feeling especially because him and Rhaenyra only visited Viserys one time after 6 years and only when they needed a political favor
I love how Aemond defends his brother as well because they are family, even though Aegon bullied him.
“What went wrong like Viserys is your dad, Alicent is your mom, explain yourself.” Exactly that 💀
‘He can keep his tongue’….. I was surprised by Daemon beheading Vaemond but Aemond seemed to enjoy it! Vicerys broke my heart, when he came to sit on the throne, then Daemon helping him with his crown, you could tell it was breaking his heart. Paddy Considine deserves an Emmy for his stellar performance!
He killed yet another noble cuz he simply doesnt give a fuck.
And people wonder why most of the realm hate this family and will start a civil war against them.
That 1st sentence is a tongue twister
After he was terrified look at the scene again everybody didn’t flinch only those with Hightower blood did. Aemond was terrified Aegon had the least shocked response out of all of them.
@@johnwalkeristhatdude3018 Wrong, wrong and wrong. Watch the scene again doofus, aemond has quick reaction, he sees a sword being drawn he readies himself for a fight, until he realizes that it was just a show of power, aemond looks at daemon in delight and in his eyes you see a glitter of inspiration and admiration
The ironic thing is that when Viserys was physically strong and healthy he was "weak", yet when he is physically ill and close to death he's at his strongest.
I love that, like you said, when Viserys left it was the younger generation who still had conflict, while the older generation in Alicent and Rhaenerya were actually rekindling. Showing that it was too late because they had already passed on their rivalry to the newer generation, so it will only continue because of their mistakes and there's no going back
I mean Aemon has all the right in being pissed at his fake nephews.
Its the oldest bastard that was acting agresive and slaming the table twice but i bet you ignored that.
And then the little shit smirking at him across the table.
And he hid his insult under a compliment yet the oldest bastard was again the first to resolve into violence.
See a theme there.
So Aegon is a dipshit no question about it but Aemon only ever made some insults cuz he knew the bastards are agressive monkeys and will atack him.
I despise the bastards not cuz they are bastards but cuz of their actions.
People seem to support the bad guys cuz of their titles and how bad ass they look in some scenes and completely ignore all the bad and vile shit they do.
Nah, alicent made a hard play for the crown as soon as viserys died. I think she wanted to take over without blood shed for sure, but that was never going to be possible in a house of dragons. She was still heavily responsible for the war that is to come.
@@ProperlyGaming She didn't lol, rewatch episode 9. She is powerless and does nothing. The whole green council left her out of their plans
@@secondeye1574 she could've easily stopped what was happening, but she didn't. She was the queen and the royal guard would've sided with her and beheaded anyone at her order who kept talking about crowning Aegon when everyone knew the kings wishes was for his daughter Rhaenyra to take the throne.
@ProperlyGaming She literally thought Viserys had changed his mind, I don't believe things would have played out the way they did if that wasn't the case. It was hard confirmed in season 2 btw, that's not speculation.
It is by design that aemond looks older than aegon. In the books he is described to look much older than aegon. Aegos is a lot like Viserys weak and too easily influenced by others where as Aemond is like Daemon, both strong figthers, leaders and had to grow up fast go be their brothers protector
That’s smart. I like that the second brother became the dominant one.
If I remember correctly, Aemond was described as half the size of Aegon at birth but twice as fierce. And in the years he caught up to his brother and even surpassed him in strenght and size, thanks to his character and his trainings. Aemond was made different since the day he was born, and that's amazing. Aegon and Aemond are such good parallels to Viserys and Daemon.
6:58 Just a tidbit of lore: Alicent got the name of that Kingsguard wrong because he has a twin brother who is also in the Kingsguard
I didn't know we were gonna get them. I thought they were cut from the show. I loved them both
@@Anakin_skywalkerr_ Which pains me even more because they kept the twin Kingsguard but its pretty much confirmed now that they cut Daeron, the most likeable Alicent son. Viserys was saying that he is glad that all the people he loves are in the dinner table, but yeah Daeron is not there. And it makes me suspicious and upset that they would cut him from the show. It seems like they dont want another likeable character in Alicent's side so that people would root more for Rhaenyra.
I'm soooooooooooooo happy so see them introduced.
@@iconoclast6555 That's not true. Isn't Daeron in Oldtown? He will be introduced in season 2 for sure.
@@iconoclast6555 bro open your eyes for 1 sec and you would see that there are 4 blood trails coming from alicent in the opening. he is in oldtown.
One of my favorite parts of this episode other than Viserys's entry was Daemon and Rhaenyra's relationship.
Both of them look the happiest that I have ever seen them be with each other.
The love in his eyes as he looks at her and their children is precious.
Forever team black.
YES ❤
Aemond got a growth spurt as soon as he got Grandmama Vhagar.
I love that you two show compassion seeing Viserys in his condition. I've seen some reactors laugh and I don't really get why. Viserys wasn't a bad guy. He tried to do right by everyone which is impossible. He did the best he could to keep the realm together and did for the most part.
There have been some people laughing?? Holy crap, I'm glad I haven't seen any of those reactions. All the ones I've watched, the only reaction has been sympathy. And like this video, a lot of people have really been affected by his walk to the throne
@@TheRAH14 Yeah calling him crypt keeper, laughing at him stumbling and walking slow, joking about him falling on the swords and dying. Just disrespectful stuff. This scene was very moving and I'm glad the majority of reactors are empathetic and not laughing but some are.
@@_gr1nchh I have seen some folks joking about him falling on the swords, and I must admit I found those comments amusing as well lol, but generally the reactions I've seen have been emotional and a lot of admiration for Viserys even showing up in the first place
People who laugh never watched someone die in real life. Havin lost my mom 2 years ago it took me right back to the hospice room where it was just me in a room (because of covid restrictions and my family being cowards) watch my mom die. Patty nailed it
Who are you watching that Actually laughed because I watch quite a few reaction channels and I’ve never seen anybody laugh lol
"He's not walking to the throne, he's walking to her" 😔 - Episode 8, Director Geeta Patel
No one can deny that the love Visersy has to his daughter and brother, vice versa, is true and deep #TEAMBLACK
oh wow, even after that emotional firestorm that insight just hits you like a ton of bricks
The ultimate girl dad! As a daddy’s girl that scene broke me. It was beautifully done
Man I was so close to crying with the Viserys entrance 😔😔 poor man. Then at the dinner table when everyone seemed happy for a sec, my heart cant take that 😭😭
cried during supper, when he seen all happy, even tho we know most of them have agendas and will kill each other, but he had moment is happiness before his death, so sad
aemond’s actor is Ewan Mitchell and he’s staying till the end so you’re in luck 😂
The scene where Daemon picks up.the crown was improvised by Matt and they just went with it. Amazing scene
I love the tension between Aemond and Daemon 😛🥵. Aemond is like a younger but more cruel version of Daemon and the way Daemon looks at him with that smirk... "Boy... you are a few decades short to challenge me. 😈". And the look on Viserys face when seeing his "family" at dinner was fantastic. It made me cry. 😭🤌
Yeah and I love that they both look fairly similar too
Aemond actually looks up to Daemon 😂 he was impressed when Daemon killed Vaemond
Well, I once read "if aemond had been born 50 years later he would have been a Daemon fanboy" and I completely agree
12:10 Carlie being terrified of Aemond means they chose the right actor to play the part. Aemond is my favorite character yet I'm also terrified of him.
Aemond just became one of my favourites of this show. Also Daemon of course tops this list
Two gigachads
Truly the most epic characters in this story
no one can top daemon frfr💎 and aemond is a baddie in the making aswell ofc
@@giselle1929 never thought aemond would be such a badass character and the actor does play him really well
i love how Daemon was like damn not bad kid and kinda proud looking after the "Strong" toast lol
i had the same reaction when they showed daemon going to help viserys. incredibly moving.
Bawled my eyes out
I cried watching this scene... I relate so much with Daemon, seeing his brother in that state must hurt him a lot...
Paddy Considine, what an actor. Made a nothing character in the book into this really tragic and humane man who in the twilight of his life stands up for his eldest daughter. It really crushes you when you realize he is only supposed to be in his early 50s at this point...
what do you mean nothing character? is he not important in the books?
@@jamesangelodiez9891 Nobody really is. The Fire&Blood book reads more like historical analysis than a novel. Characters like Daemon, Aemond and Criston Cole are ok but the rest of them are not developed at all. It was just written to explain references mentioned in A Song of Ice and Fire. The reason why I love this show more than Game of Thrones is that, GOT is a dried version of the book, while HoTD really expands on a simple 200-300 pages out of 600 page book and makes it richer. Paddy did his part and more, he carried the cast in my opinion, what a great actor!
crazy right....such a well written season 1 to turn nothing into something as a whole and deliver a kick butt prelude. i really enjoyed what we've seen so far it was well crafted and acted. 50 has got to be aged for this time period though I can't see many living far past their 50s normally without advanced medical science, it's still a medieval barbaric time period.
@@jamesangelodiez9891 Bretter already said it but there are really few characters you can actually CARE about in F&B due to its format and the biases that come with it. A testament to the writing and the performance.
@@belowzeros That is true, he is definitely an older person by westerosi standards but i feel like some people think he is like 70 when he is actually a few years younger than Tywin's younger siblings are at the start of GoT.
29:04 Тhe king holds out his hand, saying "My love", in honor of his first deceased wife. ( before he dies he sees her for the last time )
This episode broke me, I cried a lot seing Viserys, he is just a loving granpa who loves Rhaenyra too much, seeing him go like that just broke my heart
Aemond is so epic, love the actor as well, he portraits him perfectly
Love Aemond and Daemon so much, and Helaena and Jace could've been so beautiful if only Helaena's mother Alicent just said yes it can stop this sh*t altogether.
Well if she said yes and stopped this altogether, we wouldn't have a great show to watch. Goof.
@@KDA8919 exactly.....peaceful times in westeros do not make for good songs and stories 😉
Unless you believe in logic of child marriage (finding compatibility based on childhood behaviour), no one can know who will good match. The only reason for fixing marriage at a young age is politics. And there is no reason for Alicent to marry her legitimate children to bastards
Well why should Alicent marry her royal daughter to bastard
@@KDA8919 So a person realizing and pointing out the lost potential that has lead to the downfall of house Targaryen is a goof? God, the internet is a delightful place.
The acting in this episode was top notch
This is supposedly the last "major" time jump. So all the new actors we saw this episode are here for the long term!
You cried as I did. You guys are my people ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Viserys broke my heart.
Apparently the scene where Viserys' crown fell was not in the script; it was an accident. Matt Smith (Daemon) improvised picking it up and helping him continue to the throne and they just kept filming. That honestly makes that moment even better tbh.
I loved the reactions. Especially that you all caught about how deep Viserys's love in for not only family but his daughter. You don't get a lot in shows / movies, but a good father's love is just as deep as a good mother's love. I cried that whole scene KNOWING he was so far gone with Leprosy, in pain and near death yet the strength of his love for his daughter and her asking for his help proved that a good dad no matter how far gone will aid his daughter. A father's love is a father's love. Just as there is no love like a mother for her son. There is no love like a father for his daughter. The look his daughter gave him as he glanced at her broke me. The admiration and thankfulness pour out of her expression. That is all a dad needs. Daemon helping his brother shows yes. He loves his brother. For the first time him seeing his brother so broken was the first time he even stumbled with words at sight of his brother. Daemon never loses it, but you could see in his expression and face that he truly hurt from his brother's condition.
The scene with the family dinner had me bawling my eyes out dude. I have never seen an actor play an old man in agony like that. Emotional and physical. He just wanted his family to love each other.
Just a note if you haven't seen it otherwise (or I missed another comment), Aemond is supposed to look older because of the hard life he lead (dragon riding/fighting, bitterness/hate, and the eye business) aging him where the "older" brother just laid around, behaved badly, and drunk alot. (Which perhaps should age one as well, but for this character it hasn't yet.) With the slight frame of the actor for Aemond they'll prob have him in clothes/armor later that will fill him out. Not sure about his older brother, he's not the type I picture for what's to come.
Ewan Mitchell as Aemond is absolutely brilliant. I love him as the "baby monk" Osferth in The Last Kingdom TV Series and now in House of the Dragon.
In the throne room, Alllicent wasn't angry. She was just too tired. Actually at this point, she was much more stable, until she swallowed Viserys' words at the ending out of context.
20:26 I love your reaction here. You both think for a moment he won't say it, relax and suddenly he shouts BASTARDS!!! hahaha, loved your jump right after
Viserys Targaryen is one of the *strongest* characters that I have *ever* seen.
Long Live the King!!!
"My Love."
Subbed. Because I have been scouring the site and your reaction and discussion is the most rational and self-aware, unbiased reaction there is, aside from FilmBuff. Your video really cleansed my soul, and I now look forward to watching your reactions and discussions to all future episodes. Will be going back to watch previous ones, of course.
Thanks for existing, lol.
Yeah you can tell how much better the reaction and discussion is when the reactors aren't biased. I was so impressed when Angelo immediately realized that the King's tea was milk of the poppy. The other reactors who are biased and think that the Hightowers are just pure evil immediately thought that it was poison, and it didn't make sense because like Carlie said, it's in the best interest of the Hightowers for the King to live longer.
@@iconoclast6555 Yes, I’ve seen those reactions.
Not to mention all the reactions who assumed Alicent killed Dyana the serving girl, giving her poison to drink when in fact it was the Moon Tea. The bias is clear there because it wouldn’t make sense for her to give the girl money if she was gonna poison her to death. And they took Alicent hugging Halaena as confirmation, when it was clear Alicent did that because she had just stressed how much of a slight Aegon’s vile actions reflected back on Halaena, his wife. She felt sorry for her daughter and guilty as well.
@@kittyorasheepy Exactly. The writing of this show has been great so far. It wouldn't make sense for them to just write a scene where the "villain" gives someone money so that she will be silent and then also gives her poison so she will die. That doesn't make sense and that's so cringe.
Aemond isn’t his grandson it’s his son. Last episode you can see the leprosy spread on the right side of his face so it’s probably the disease take took his eye.
my heart goes to ange, you ahve the softest heart, Paddy (actor) did soo well this episode, I almost cried too
Daemond slashes Vaemonds skull in half
Aemond watching it: can you be my daddy
Aemond is my absolute favourite character and he is gonna speed run being a teen to another level. Also, Aegon and Aemond don't really care much about their father 'cause he never really cared enough for them. Aemond is forever loyal to his mum 'cause she is the only one who stood up for him when he lost his eye while viserys did not even reprimanded Luke for stabbing Aemond's eye.
Nuh aemond Will die soon by daemon
Right?!👏
This season has as full story has been a masterpiece. I don't want it to end and the wait for season 2 will be rough but I'm excited for the last 2 episodes and then to binge watching all 10 episodes some weekend.
I never comment - but good gracious, I just want to say I absolutely adore the two of you and always look forward to your uploads! I especially love watching Carlie cry at all the moments I did. :) The scene where Deamon stepped up to help Viserys REALLY shook me too - reminded me of when he was speaking to Corlys at the end of episode 1. Regardless of their disagreements, he made it very clear that Viserys was always his brother and he loved him!
TLDR - you both are honestly a breath of fresh air on RUclips and I adore watching you! Keep it up! Your beyond relatable, both incredibly insightful and intelligent, and very authentic. All the positivity and love to you both!
Beautiful comment ❤️👌🏼
Thanks so much for the lovely comment Peyton ❤️
I must admit all the castings up to now have been top-notch! And Aemond is just like he is described in the books... The symbolism is once again incredibly done.
Alicent's kids felt like the first misstep for me only because they were such opposites of their previous castings. they are kids though and kids can change quickly, it was just a bit confusing.
Daemon always thought Viserys was weak but this is the moment he realised what makes his brother strong.
"I could do with a tissue on standby" LOL. No worries I had tears myself.
This was my favorite episode so far. It's beautiful and tragic.
They didn’t say Corlys is dead. Said he’s very sick. He’s alive.
the poppy flower was used to make opium, and still used to make oxycotone, Morphine en Heroin So milk of the poppy is used as a painkiller
At the end Viserys thought he was talking to rhaenyra since she asked him the question earlier in the ep and he was answering her now and also explains why Alicent was confused and didn’t know what he was talking about. Alicent now thinks that their son aegon is the prince that is promised and we’ll see the repercussions of viserys’s dying words in the coming eps.
So refreshing to see an actual natural reaction video from genuine people, who don't constantly speak over the dialogue and try to be funny at the worst possible times.
“You think he sort of paid the crime for his grandson’s eye being removed? An eye for an eye?”
Maybe… but I believe that in the grander scheme of things, all of his suffering - Viserys paid for what he did to Aemma. All because of his greed of wanting a son and caused his wife’s death. I cried for Viserys so much in this episode. He may not be the best king but he was a good man and I believe he really tried to atone for his sin against his deceased wife by naming Rhaenyra as his heir and defending her until his death, even though he knows the truth about her sons. RIP King Viserys 😭 I’ll miss Paddy Considine so much too! 😭
Well said. I cried for him too. His heart is in a good place. He just wants everyone to get along.
The two of your reactions to this episode has raised you up in everyone's estimations. And we already liked you.
Carlie's reaction when she heard there was gonna be another timeskip lol. I felt that😂
Such a beautiful, sad episode... This show is just blowing me away, week after week. Can't wait to see the final two episodes.
Aemond will be the "Greens" version of Daemon.
All hail King Viserys the first Targaryen. The man has been the best surprise of the whole series. Actor Paddy said that he wanted to imbue his with as much humanity as possible and i think he went above and beyond. Its embarrassing how much this episode makes you want to weep. Gods! I think Id snap if anyone mentions that Viserys was a bad king. The weightof the crown and the pricks of that iron throne are enough to destroy any man. Its a sad fact that good men fall far easier to the malice of the game.
at the end with alicent viserys thought he was talking to rhaenerya about aegon the conquerors dream, the song of ice and fire, that references the prince to unite and save the realm from the night king aka aegon targaryean son of rhaegar targaryan and lyanna stark aka jon snow. unfortunatley alicent had no idea what he was talking about and thought he was talking about their son aegon so now she thinks viserys wants their son to be king L. when viserys says it is you he means that he believes rheanerya is the princess that was promised
This episode was a BIG foreshadow for a badass air battle between two certain characters ifykyk😏
I was crying too! Like pouring !!!! I’m going to miss Visarys! 💔💔💔
40:50 - The roasted pig was served and Luke laughed mischievously and looked at Aemond, which of course made Aemond angry.
Right there with you, bawled my eyes out. Stunning episode, this show hasn't missed once yet. I haven't seen a slam dunk of a character like Viserys in any TV show in so long.
And that was supported by all of these other amazing characters and their deep complex relationships with him. Rhaenrya pleading sadly with him in the night had me pouring tears
Paddy Considine nailed it. All hail Vizzy T, first of his name. Flawed king, good father and great character.
The dance is about to begin, boys and girls!
Glad you guys find the scene at the Throne Room to be a heart-wrenching one...I cried as well!! 😭
surely it was painful to see the old man pushing himself to the Throne... and he surely have the knowledge that Otto is trying to "sit" on the Throne while he was bedridden.
I agree the scene when Daemon hold his brother and said "Come on" was the best scene. It show as much as the differences between the brothers, they love each other very much. Same like when Daemon kneel to his brother when his return from beating Crab Feeder...
Im on the Black Team because of Daemon, though he is loose unit...
"tissue on standby" ahaha you guys are so cute
Milk of the Poppy is the juice derived from the Opium Poppy plant. It's unrefined morphine/heroin.
Everyone is talking about Cristin not aging, but what about Daemon????! Lmao, he hasn’t changed either!
Bestv
Reaction I've seen to the end of this epic character, the throne room entry , with that glance at his daughter before the throne. Unnnnggggggg
one of the best reactions ive seen you guys complement each other really well as reactors i loved watching this great job !!!
I appreciate you guys' reaction to the small Alicent-Rhaenerya friendship moments. Despite the conflict between them I don't know how anyone's heart could not melt in the moment Alicent grabs her hand and asks her to stay. It's oddly cute.
20:25 I bust out laughing when he started smiling because I already knew what he was about to say 😅
6:54 Keep an eye on the kingsguards, Ser Erryk and Ser Arryk. These twins may have an interesting plot to play later in this show that played well in the books
You were right, the storm does symbolise something.
I think it's referring to Rhaenys, since she is half Baratheon from her mother's side (she actually had brown hairs in the book) , and Baratheons are often tied to storms (examples are their seat called Storms End and one of the Lord Baratheons was called "the laughing storm").
Crazy that you still felt the connection even without knowing.
Ange! You have literally the best reactions 😂 love you guys. Thank you for the vid 😜
Excellent and heartfelt reaction. I am subbing you guys just off the strength of this reaction. I was a wreck this whole episode, a crying mess. Anyone who has lost a close family member felt this episode on a really deep level.
35:35 - So the "Prince that was Promised" was indeed John Snow. He was literally that Prince who led the charge against the white walkers - raised as a Northman Stark (ICE) but also genetically Targaryen (FIRE) - John Snow successfully united the realms of men against "the Last Winter" so that everything could play out exactly as it did - setting up Arya for the final ending blow durung "The Long Night."
The Prophecy Dream was ultimately fulfilled - and the very blade that Arya used to kill the Night King (Cats Paw) is the same blade King V has been carrying around all season. The same blade the Queen attacked the Princess with too - passed down from heir to hier since Aegon the Conqueror's time - for the sole purpose of preserving the human race
I see it in a different way, about the pain the king had to suffer from his illness gradually in his life. He regretted his mistake of giving up his wife's life for a son and the pain she has to suffer in her end. Deep inside, he somehow accepted the pain he was suffering for the pain he had given to his wife.
There was another popular channel that reacted to this episode and they laughed and made jokes during the serious emotional moments, esp with Viserys, which makes me appreciate the genuine feels you two are sharing with us!! ❤
Daemon may have insulted, cheated on, and murdered his old wife, but don't you dare insult his new wife XD
He didn’t murder his old wife. She committed suicide and went out like a G. Viserys chopped Aemma up and gave her no say.
@@strawberriesncandii I think he's talking about the wife in the Vale and nit the Velaryon's one
Thank you for posting your cover of the intro theme! I LOVE it!
i saw a lot of reactions about this episode, THIS ONE is absolutely the BEST
In my opinion that kings walk with Damon finally getting what he always wanted to do, being the man who assisted his brother was the most emotional scene in the GOT TV anthology .It was right up there with the revelation of Jon Snow birth of being a Targaryen in GOT . Just fantastic writing and giving us the Kings struggle to hold that family together .
Jon snow revelation fucking sucked! Everything post season 4/5 was Disney crap and everything GRRM hates about most fantasies
what a bittersweet episode. i cried my shit because of Viserys. at least, he died happy.
Yes..Carlie and Ange back again with another great reaction. Man that scene where Daemon helped Viserys to the throne was very touching.
I genuinely think both Alicent and Rhay meant every word on their toast, especially Alicent. She never means to hurt Rhay so deeply, it's Otto's influence that drives her to paranoia, he was the one to not greet them properly when they arrived and he visibly looks confused when Alicent genuinely treats Rhay kindly. I think Alicent deeply misses being close with Rhay.
i think you're the one of the only reaction to have catch the heartbreaking part of that episode. Loved it !
Paddy deserves an Emmy for this episode alone
He is going against Bob Odenkirk, so it is very unlikely
I always love you guys's reactions, youre one of the smartest and most sensitive reactors out there
One of the best episodes of the franchise. Viserys was amazing.
ange is like daemon. no tears will roll down his cheeks no matter how he feels :)
I love your reactions, after finishing the episodes I wait for your videos, greetings from Chile ❤
17:11 Only the greatest entrance and introduction we've ever seen in this universe
