Then why should a ruler be forced on the people . Alicent and her children sacrificed a lot for the throne . What did rhaenyra do cheated on her husband.

@@starryeyes469 Viserys said that Rhaenyra is his heir. The king's word is absolute and questioning it is high treason. The rightful heir is whoever the king says he is
Episode 7 was truly one of the best episodes I’ve ever watched. The pacing, dialogue, action, cinematography, acting, all absolutely fantastic. The children actors blew me away. And Aemond has definitely inserted himself as one of my favorites. And despite all odds I keep finding myself more drawn to Alicent; Olivia is absolutely amazing! I’m already mourning the end of season one.
I honestly think Alicent will somehow murder Viserys to gain more power because I have noticed that every single episode, she is slowly transforming her into Cersei. She was very petty in episode 7 and it’s quite clear the marriage with Viserys isn’t a happy one. Plus, I think Rhaenrya is currently at Dragonstone instead of in King’s Landing now, so it’s now pretty good timing for Alicent to get rid of Viserys and quickly crown her son Aegon as the successor like she wants.
I love the major reveals House of the Dragon brings that contradict the third-person accounts on the books. Having Laenor escape rather than die was an amazing plot-twist that deserved an applause. Laenor will be missed.

E7 was some of the best tv drama I've ever seen, let alone for that stage in the first season! Well done to everyone involved, you are absolutley nailing this series far beyond what anybody ever expected in their wildest dreams! (I hate to think what it will be like when the fireworks do start!)
Fireworks? They may never start.... TV Drama, you nailed it, this shit is a soap opera. At least we got to see the Hound and Mountain swingin swords in the first few episodes of GoT.
That Vhagar claim scene was absolute masterpiece. It really conveys how to be a Dragon Raider, from the claim, the struggle to climb the dragon, the attached roped for saddles, the ascend and the dive, it was just a pleasure to watch. BEST SCENE/10 WE WANT MORE OF THIS!
when the greens killed rhaenyra 's son she and daemon got aegon's infant baby killed ? So rhaenyra is way more terrible and b1tch y than alicient . But cause you all don't care what she does cause the h0€ is the heir of your throne. Even if she commits 100s of treasons?
Every episode gets better and better! Rhaenyra and Daemon prove once again why they are the stars of the show. Emma really has made Rhaenyra a formidable character, taking over from Milly, great stuff. Now the show is hitting its stride, and I'm all here for it. Hell yes.
@@lawrencefrost9063 Milly and Emma are equally pretty. They’re playing a woman at two very different stages in her life. Rhaenyra will be in her mid 30s in the time jump next episode. Milly could have never played her.
@@lawrencefrost9063 she was only hotter. Emma is a better actor and greater screen presence. She’s also playing a more mature version, Milly wouldn’t have been able to do it
Even all the child actors are fantastic. Thats pretty rare seeing as almost every show has at least one annoying kid who everyone hates. The kid who played Aemond was amazing I thought, he spoke exactly as I'd imagine Aemond would from the books
@@matpaterson8830 yes, i saw him in the aftershow he was so smart and to bad he will be gone next episode, but i really love how older aemond looks, and his one word “ nephews” gave me the chills. Didnt read the books but i have a feeling he will be one of my favorites.
@@ANA-il6js85 The actor playing mature Aemond just looks like Badass personified. It will be impossible not to love this guy a little bit, even if he does some pretty evil things
@@matpaterson8830 i just love they didnt go with some big names, Matt Smith was the only one i knew and the guy who plays Otto. Didnt know Paddy but im really gonna miss him for me he is the star of season 1.
I have no words to describe today's chapter, just epic, I'm glad I read the book first but seeing it all come to life is priceless. This is Game of Thrones at its best.
@@19amici "The Princess and The Queen" and "Fire and Blood". The former is a novella that first tell this story of Dance of the Dragons. While the latter is a complete fictional historical book of Targaryens.
All l understand with this amazing episode is that Daemon was right from the beginning. He was right about Otto and right about their house's weakness. If Viserys had listenned to him and allowed him to marry Rae, all of this would have been easier. Edit: And you can see his resentment while he's talking with Viserys. At multiple times he's just somewhere on the side, observing them wanting to tear each others appart. He laughs at them and l'm sure he's just bitter because he knows all of this could have been avoided if his brother had listenned to him. I think he had big projects about the realm but now he's just over it and the only thing that drives him is his loyalty to Raenyra . It feels like it doesn't matter that much to him anymore, he's just doing it because he can't deny anything to her.
Daemon was right, he and Allicent are some of the only reasonable people in the show. Rhaenyra on the other hand is an awful person, a selfish adulterer and murderer who rather than admitting that her children are bastards and ceding the throne to Aegon after she dies decides to drag them into war. Even going so far as to accuse a brutally wounded child who had just lost an eye of treason for telling an obvious truth. Allicent is a dutiful and good mother and wife, she was pushed by her father to seduce and wed the king and since then has done nothing but her duty.
Aemond’s flight on vhagar was epic🔥 and The look daemon gave aemond When he said “i lost an eye,but gained an dragon” 😳(daemon said ;DAAM THATS BADASS)
@@ststuna911 They've only covered about 30 pages of Fire and Blood thus far, they could stretch it to 5 if they paced it right, but no more than that. It certainly won't be an 8 season show, but with each season taking 2 years, it's possible it could run even longer than got (2011-2019) did. Hypothetically, 2022-2032, with 2 years inbetween 5 seasons.
@@Conorp77 I think 4 seasons would be perfect for the amount of material in the story. Did they mention that there would be a 2 year gap between each season? I think that's a bit too much if that is the case, a lot of casual fans would start to lose interest in between seasons. Releasing a season every year like in GoT would be ideal.
@@sliceofgames8558 Until now the question among book readers was "Why did Qarl Correy kill Laenor and who ordered it." General consensus being Mushroom's side: Daemon had Laenor killed so he could marry Rhaenyra. No one considered that it was all a ruse
@@peterretep1010 I think it's a good decision since it shows another contrast between the Blacks and the Green. Since Sir Criston killed Joffrey, the Blacks only "killed" Laenor. To add, killing off another member of the LGBTQ will bring bad reviews to the show for killing them early on the show. With that, Laenor "dying" will give him his happy ending without going far off the book. Because Qarl was not mentioned after sailing off (correct me if I'm wrong))
Aemond is really going to be one of, if not the coolest character in this show. Love him or hate him, you have to have some love or at least respect for him
@@marcelhanys9546 Thats actually an interesting comparison, they are both angry young men with a lot to prove, but who you can't help but love because they're so goddamn badass
It's true, although it's tough to think of many others, that aren't in Game of Thrones at least. In terms of joyrides, at least. A lot of people shit all over the Jon and Dany joyriding scene in season 8, but despite some subpar effects, I thought that was a good scene specifically because it was the only real joyriding scene. Which, I mean... how do you NOT have a joyriding scene in a show with dragons? I'm glad they finally did one that it seems most will be able to agree was a great scene. The one with Daemon and Laena was cool, but that one also had some questionable effects, and was pretty short and didn't really revel in the joy for very long. Same for the first one with Rhaenyra in episode 1. Aemond and Vhagar was a nice long intimate scene that reminded me of like Harry and Buckbeak in Prisoner of Azkaban. Him being a kid really helps sell the joy too. The screams of joy (and terror, lol) coming from a kid adds that whimsical fantasy element that Game of Thrones would normally shy away from, but felt appropriate here.
@@AWSVids Completely agree. The entire joyride scene actually had me in awe. I thought it was beautifully done and the effects on Vhagar were spot on. What made the scene even better was Ramin Djawadi’s score. I know I can’t be the only one who got excited once Vhagar took that first step and we started to here the Targaryen theme. 😮💨🤌🏼
@@kevint.8024 My eyes were watering down during the whole thing... having only read how Aemond took claim of Vhagar, and now see it come to life... it was mesmerizing..
It was great, but kind of unrealistic how he was hanging on to the dragon while the dragon was going full speed. That shit is equivalent to hanging on to an airplane. It’s impossible, especially for a small kid like that. They should have made him tie himself up with the ropes first, would have been more realistic.
Aemond became a favorite for me this episode and the next episode seems like he’ll segment himself even more as that. The older actor seems intense and visceral. Very excited for each episode after the next
@@dept308 Read the book cause her death is going to cause the biggest chaos Kings landing has ever seen, and when i say kings landing, its the whole city not just the nobles
Episode 7 is by far my favourite. Rhaenyras proposal to Daemon in high Valyrian was mesmerising and heart felt (part of it was Emma D’s effortless performance). Spoken with sincerity and desperation. They loved and burned for each other yet as adults it’s calculated. And Daemons response through his body language said much. He’s changed: now a father, he’s matured and contemplating what their marriage meant. That’s 100% “until death do us part.” Oh and the score by Ramin Djawadi towards the end was perfection!
Absolutely, and you really feel like they both are finally ready to be together. They've been in love with one another for a long time, but were both waiting for the right moment to marry as they deserve.
@@rhaenyralikesyoutube6289 i agree with you! ive seen comments about they say Daemon looked like very different his behavior with Nyra BUT people has to undertand that they have matured , both. Both are parents both were already married and they had to deal with their deaths of course is not goin to be the same. they were apart for more than 10 years!! like you said he’s matured and contemplating what their marriage meant
@@rodriguezjavier6726 well we don't know what approach they'll have with Nettles there was account in the books saying they were like father and daughter and there's major suspicion she's his bastard
I never thought I’d sympathize with Aemond but kudos to the show and the actor for making me feel bad for him before he became the Greens’ answer to Daemon
@@qarcon3247 Seems to me he's already there lmfao, walked up to the world's most dangerous creature and tamed her no prob, went directly from doing that to fighting four kids at once, and then had the mental fortitude to be like "nah its cool mom I'll get it back in blood later" after being stabbed in the eye. Young man is a problem!
I know everyone keep saying that each episode is better than the previous one, but this one was truly mesmerising, even the cinematography and the color palette were absolutely stunning, dark, gripping, the tension was palpable throughout the entirety of this episode and no scene was made for filling empty spaces. This series is simply from another world man, the entire budget of ROP ain't shit when compared to that Vhagar riding scene. WOW!!!!
They lost me after that stupid dumb decision to change the compelling cast members but kept the king and others the same lol. It would’ve been so easy to just make them look older. Stupid decision to swap cast half way in.
@@bluehope42 No it’s just stupid af what they did. They could’ve made the girls look older with fucking makeup so damn easily. So they kept some cast and were supposed to believe they got older but the girls look completely different ? Who’s stupid idea was that to keep some of the cast and swap the most compelling characters? The actress irl is 25 years old. They made her look young but didn’t want to make her look a little older ? That is some of the most stupid decision making Ive ever seen in history. At least the crown did that every season not half way into the series when you’re invested into certain characters. Imagine if they change Daneryes in Game of Thrones to a completely new character when you were invested in her. That is beyond fucking stupid.
Aemond the absolute G. ✅Walked up to the biggest dragon in existence and tamed her. ✅Fought a 4v1 like it was just another Tuesday. ✅Protected his mom. ✅Shrugged off losing an eye, knew he was too buff with two anyway
so crazy episode 7 is by far the best. The scene of Aemond riding Vhagar reminds me of when Jon Snow and Daenerys searched for the Nightking and then pierced through the clouds with a bright moon background. During what happened in the driftmark hall, the commotion dialogue reminded me like the ones in Game of Thrones. Alicent here is like Cersei who flinched when she was afraid she would find out the truth. Viserys interrogates Aemond like the way Robert interrogates Sansa with the typical "your king" threat.
@@augustus9708 Still these are girls, one of the two is younger than Aemond, and Luke is only 5 y.o... The way he attacked the younger girl showed that he will be a coward as an adult. He even grabbed a stone to hit Luke, that's fucked up...
Lol what. There is no grey for the blacks. Daemon gets his murders ignored and Rhaenyras threatens to torture Aemond and no one says shit but everyone hates Alicent.
@@Drpavel564 bruh what. Larys straight up killed his dad and brother, and criston tried takings lukes eye out this episode and everyone is hating on alicent cause shes making issues ok everything where there shouldnt.
@@dontcaredontcare7868 You what? Her son just had his eye taken out, I think most mother's would be pretty livid. And I don't know what episode you just watched but Criston Cole did not try taking Luke's eye out. Biased much?
@@dontcaredontcare7868 Criston did no such thing lmfao you making shit up, he literally stood there and said "nah my queen I don't get paid enough for that shit". Larys killed his fam on his own accord, you will see sooner than later that his depravity isn't in strict service of either side. Finally, Rhae saw Aemond (her brother) with his eye cut out and her first instinct was to cry to her daddy that it was his fault bc he said some clearly true shit. Just to avoid holding her sons accountable for maiming their own uncle (after they had been actively bullying him for years)
Watching Aemond claim Vhagar was so good and it felt so realistic and contrasts Dany and Jon claiming Drogon and Rhaegal. Of course it won’t be easy for a 10 year old to claim a 150 year old dragon. It makes me want a dragon so bad. My only worry is that we’ve not seen Daeron yet ans Tessarion and I really want to Dreamfyre and Sunfyre properly
I wouldn't say Aemond taming Vhaegar felt good. Of course he really won Vhaegar, probably all other Valyrians were introduced in a safe manner. But still it doesn't feel good just because he is Alicent's kid. Of Vhaegar I must say he is a bit of a whore: happily goes from one rider to another. Vhaegar is ancient. One of Aegon's(the Conqueror) sisters rode him. Vhaegar is a smaller version of Balerion. To have choose Almond just days after his rider's death feels sick.
Loved aemond in this ep. They are doing such a good job at building up this tension and conflict between the families for the eventual Targaryen war. Great storytelling and character building. This show is great
@@alekseyzorin6282 didn’t they say tho that they can go beyond this story and explore other story’s with house Targaryen? So we could potentially get more seasons, it would just be with other people from the house
@@alekseyzorin6282 I don't see how they can cover everything that's going to happen in only 3 seasons. This whole season by itself was only like a couple paragraphs in the book. There are 15 battles and story arcs between each one.
Alicent’s outburst and trying to attack Lucerys showed us how much Otto’s manipulation has worked on her. She basically poured as much of her heart out to Rhaenyra as she could. Alicent lost her best friend, and her life due to being Queen and it has really traumatized her.
@@yukijames1321 she is the one who sneaked behind her friend’s back and opened her legs to her father. Even if her own father put her to the task if she REALLY was that good of a friend to rhaenyra she would have told her … But I’m convinced that deep inside she always envied Her. Remember that scene under the tree … how she reacted when Rhaenyra told her that she didn’t care about her position that she only worried for her mother and that she hoped her father would finally get his heir … Her and her father are leeches they brought all that mess on themselves I will never empathize for them
This thread here is wonderful. Thank you all for the great analysis. I love Alicent and it's nice to see viewers see her as a great character rather than just a bitch like many folks on tumblr are seeing her. And Olivia Cooke is the best actress.
@@yukijames1321 Exactly! It's like Cersei would do anything for her children even after knowing how Joffrey was 😂 Or Dany for her kids that is her three dragons, that's why she finally lost it when she at end lost her two dragons and even Missandei. Even Olenna Tyrell did what she had to, to protect her daughter from Joffrey. A mother's love is truly powerful. Not saying I completely support what Alicent does tho, but she gave the same sort of upbringing to her children which her father gave her.
Can't believe there are only 3 episodes left.. I just can't get enough of this show. I'm a non book reader and I was already spoiled for the future events of 'Dance of The Dragons' and that just made me even more excited. I think the next season will be insane and it's ok if they'll make me wait for it as long as they do their best showcasing the main event and all the chaos of the Targaryen civil war. Can't wait for next episode 🙂.
Talk SHIT, get HIT! My boy Aemond don't take shit from these asshole bullies. They shouldn't have attacked the actual rightful prince of the Iron Throne and Seven Kingdoms!
Imagine if House of the Dragon was a Netflix show that released all episodes on the same day. It wouldn't be the same without the anticipation every week!
Today's episode was so overwhelmingly good definitely healed from ep.6 and omg I finally got to hear Emma speak High Valyrian and goodness they speak it so good like its Emma's mother tongue. It sounded so natural can't for next Sunday!!
GOT actually kept me alive during the darkest time of my life. Between seasons, I became obsessed with GOT/ASOIAF lore (tons of awesome videos on yt)... It seriously kept me going and now I'm so grateful for it bc my life has turned out pretty great! This universe & my curiosity actually saved my life 🙌🏼

when the greens killed rhaenyra 's son she and daemon got aegon's infant baby killed ? So rhaenyra is way more terrible and b1tch y than alicient . But cause you all don't care what she does cause the h0€ is the heir of your throne. Even if she commits 100s of treasons?
Every episode gets better and better! Rhaenyra and Daemon prove once again why they are the stars of the show. Emma really has made Rhaenyra a formidable character, taking over from Milly, great stuff. Now the show is hitting its stride, and I'm all here for it. Hell yes.
No. She isn't good. Milly was younger, better, hotter. It was a grave mistake changing actors.

Far better than Game Of Thrones’s Season 1 so far, easily.
(Seems this opinion pushed some buttons 💀)

@@pizzajeanz4410 i mean vghar is pretty old so

All l understand with this amazing episode is that Daemon was right from the beginning. He was right about Otto and right about their house's weakness. If Viserys had listenned to him and allowed him to marry Rae, all of this would have been easier.
Edit: And you can see his resentment while he's talking with Viserys. At multiple times he's just somewhere on the side, observing them wanting to tear each others appart. He laughs at them and l'm sure he's just bitter because he knows all of this could have been avoided if his brother had listenned to him. I think he had big projects about the realm but now he's just over it and the only thing that drives him is his loyalty to Raenyra . It feels like it doesn't matter that much to him anymore, he's just doing it because he can't deny anything to her.
Daemon was right, he and Allicent are some of the only reasonable people in the show. Rhaenyra on the other hand is an awful person, a selfish adulterer and murderer who rather than admitting that her children are bastards and ceding the throne to Aegon after she dies decides to drag them into war. Even going so far as to accuse a brutally wounded child who had just lost an eye of treason for telling an obvious truth. Allicent is a dutiful and good mother and wife, she was pushed by her father to seduce and wed the king and since then has done nothing but her duty.

Words can not describe how good this show is, I can't stop watching. I hope we get many seasons of this show like we did with GOT.
Unfortunately there isn't enough material in the books to make this an 8 season show, there will probably only be 3 seasons, or 4 maximum.
@@ststuna911 They've only covered about 30 pages of Fire and Blood thus far, they could stretch it to 5 if they paced it right, but no more than that. It certainly won't be an 8 season show, but with each season taking 2 years, it's possible it could run even longer than got (2011-2019) did. Hypothetically, 2022-2032, with 2 years inbetween 5 seasons.
@@Conorp77 I think 4 seasons would be perfect for the amount of material in the story. Did they mention that there would be a 2 year gap between each season? I think that's a bit too much if that is the case, a lot of casual fans would start to lose interest in between seasons. Releasing a season every year like in GoT would be ideal.
I can't wait for Rhaenyras' dragon Syrax to eat Aegon II. An for Aemond to kill Daemon.

Amazing episode. Such a good show
@@sliceofgames8558 Until now the question among book readers was "Why did Qarl Correy kill Laenor and who ordered it." General consensus being Mushroom's side: Daemon had Laenor killed so he could marry Rhaenyra. No one considered that it was all a ruse
@@sliceofgames8558 i meant, he was supposed to died. But the show wanted a twist from the books.
@@sliceofgames8558 yes because the dude dies in the books
@@peterretep1010 I think it's a good decision since it shows another contrast between the Blacks and the Green. Since Sir Criston killed Joffrey, the Blacks only "killed" Laenor. To add, killing off another member of the LGBTQ will bring bad reviews to the show for killing them early on the show. With that, Laenor "dying" will give him his happy ending without going far off the book. Because Qarl was not mentioned after sailing off (correct me if I'm wrong))

That had to be one of the best dragon riding scenes EVER. 🐉🐉🐉
It's true, although it's tough to think of many others, that aren't in Game of Thrones at least. In terms of joyrides, at least. A lot of people shit all over the Jon and Dany joyriding scene in season 8, but despite some subpar effects, I thought that was a good scene specifically because it was the only real joyriding scene. Which, I mean... how do you NOT have a joyriding scene in a show with dragons? I'm glad they finally did one that it seems most will be able to agree was a great scene. The one with Daemon and Laena was cool, but that one also had some questionable effects, and was pretty short and didn't really revel in the joy for very long. Same for the first one with Rhaenyra in episode 1. Aemond and Vhagar was a nice long intimate scene that reminded me of like Harry and Buckbeak in Prisoner of Azkaban. Him being a kid really helps sell the joy too. The screams of joy (and terror, lol) coming from a kid adds that whimsical fantasy element that Game of Thrones would normally shy away from, but felt appropriate here.
@@AWSVids Completely agree. The entire joyride scene actually had me in awe. I thought it was beautifully done and the effects on Vhagar were spot on. What made the scene even better was Ramin Djawadi’s score. I know I can’t be the only one who got excited once Vhagar took that first step and we started to here the Targaryen theme. 😮💨🤌🏼
Yeah looked great on my night vision goggles
@@kevint.8024 My eyes were watering down during the whole thing... having only read how Aemond took claim of Vhagar, and now see it come to life... it was mesmerizing..
It was great, but kind of unrealistic how he was hanging on to the dragon while the dragon was going full speed. That shit is equivalent to hanging on to an airplane. It’s impossible, especially for a small kid like that.
They should have made him tie himself up with the ropes first, would have been more realistic.
Aemond riding Vhagar for the first time was a powerful moment.
Can't wait to see grown up One-Eye.
Aemond became a favorite for me this episode and the next episode seems like he’ll segment himself even more as that. The older actor seems intense and visceral. Very excited for each episode after the next

This season had been truly outstanding. Every episode just gets better.
Episode 7 is by far my favourite. Rhaenyras proposal to Daemon in high Valyrian was mesmerising and heart felt (part of it was Emma D’s effortless performance). Spoken with sincerity and desperation. They loved and burned for each other yet as adults it’s calculated. And Daemons response through his body language said much. He’s changed: now a father, he’s matured and contemplating what their marriage meant. That’s 100% “until death do us part.” Oh and the score by Ramin Djawadi towards the end was perfection!
Absolutely, and you really feel like they both are finally ready to be together. They've been in love with one another for a long time, but were both waiting for the right moment to marry as they deserve.
@@rhaenyralikesyoutube6289 i agree with you! ive seen comments about they say Daemon looked like very different his behavior with Nyra BUT people has to undertand that they have matured , both.

Leo Ashton did a wonderful job portraying Aemond's vulnerability and pain before having the batshit crazy begin to settle in.
I know everyone keep saying that each episode is better than the previous one, but this one was truly mesmerising, even the cinematography and the color palette were absolutely stunning, dark, gripping, the tension was palpable throughout the entirety of this episode and no scene was made for filling empty spaces. This series is simply from another world man, the entire budget of ROP ain't shit when compared to that Vhagar riding scene. WOW!!!!

They made her look young but didn’t want to make her look a little older ? That is some of the most stupid decision making Ive ever seen in history. At least the crown did that every season not half way into the series when you’re invested into certain characters. Imagine if they change Daneryes in Game of Thrones to a completely new character when you were invested in her. That is beyond fucking stupid.

so crazy episode 7 is by far the best. The scene of Aemond riding Vhagar reminds me of when Jon Snow and Daenerys searched for the Nightking and then pierced through the clouds with a bright moon background. During what happened in the driftmark hall, the commotion dialogue reminded me like the ones in Game of Thrones. Alicent here is like Cersei who flinched when she was afraid she would find out the truth. Viserys interrogates Aemond like the way Robert interrogates Sansa with the typical "your king" threat.

Larys killed his fam on his own accord, you will see sooner than later that his depravity isn't in strict service of either side.
Finally, Rhae saw Aemond (her brother) with his eye cut out and her first instinct was to cry to her daddy that it was his fault bc he said some clearly true shit. Just to avoid holding her sons accountable for maiming their own uncle (after they had been actively bullying him for years)
Bruh... her son lost an eye.
Watching Aemond claim Vhagar was so good and it felt so realistic and contrasts Dany and Jon claiming Drogon and Rhaegal. Of course it won’t be easy for a 10 year old to claim a 150 year old dragon. It makes me want a dragon so bad. My only worry is that we’ve not seen Daeron yet ans Tessarion and I really want to Dreamfyre and Sunfyre properly
They better not have cut out Daeron or I will throw hands🙄🙄🙄🙄
I wouldn't say Aemond taming Vhaegar felt good. Of course he really won Vhaegar, probably all other Valyrians were introduced in a safe manner. But still it doesn't feel good just because he is Alicent's kid. Of Vhaegar I must say he is a bit of a whore: happily goes from one rider to another. Vhaegar is ancient. One of Aegon's(the Conqueror) sisters rode him. Vhaegar is a smaller version of Balerion. To have choose Almond just days after his rider's death feels sick.
He should technically be in Oldtown all this while.
Daenerys didn’t claim drogon in the same way because she birthed him….that comparison makes no sense??

Every episode has its own surprise. A great episode today.
Alicent’s outburst and trying to attack Lucerys showed us how much Otto’s manipulation has worked on her. She basically poured as much of her heart out to Rhaenyra as she could. Alicent lost her best friend, and her life due to being Queen and it has really traumatized her.
@@yukijames1321 she is the one who sneaked behind her friend’s back and opened her legs to her father. Even if her own father put her to the task if she REALLY was that good of a friend to rhaenyra she would have told her … But I’m convinced that deep inside she always envied Her. Remember that scene under the tree … how she reacted when Rhaenyra told her that she didn’t care about her position that she only worried for her mother and that she hoped her father would finally get his heir … Her and her father are leeches they brought all that mess on themselves I will never empathize for them
though her father has a part in it it's mainly because of her love for her children and wanting to avenge aemond personally
No I just really think she loves her children
This thread here is wonderful. Thank you all for the great analysis. I love Alicent and it's nice to see viewers see her as a great character rather than just a bitch like many folks on tumblr are seeing her. And Olivia Cooke is the best actress.
@@yukijames1321 Exactly! It's like Cersei would do anything for her children even after knowing how Joffrey was 😂
Or Dany for her kids that is her three dragons, that's why she finally lost it when she at end lost her two dragons and even Missandei. Even Olenna Tyrell did what she had to, to protect her daughter from Joffrey. A mother's love is truly powerful. Not saying I completely support what Alicent does tho, but she gave the same sort of upbringing to her children which her father gave her.

The scene with Vhagar was my favorite dragon scene in both shows.
The kid who played Aemond is such an amazing actor.
They really had no reason making a show this good im already sooo attached to the characters after only 7 episodes it's crazy
It's an redemption arc for doing GoT s8.
Had no reason? are you stupid? The whole point is to make a good show and bring in viewership. They had all the reason
Yeah ngl it feels like we’ve watched 3 seasons ✨
Yes they did after the back lash from Season 8. Where you living under a rock?
Don't get too attached. They may not stick around too long.
Aemond claiming Vhagar is best HOTD scene so far no matter who you are rooting for, the actor and dragon played it so well.
They got a real dragon too! Quite the job
@@BucketheadChuck Vhagar's actor deserves an Emmy for this! 💯
The claim of Vhagar was epic, loved it. But to me, the scene of the kids fighting in the hallway was better than the entire season 8 of GOT.
Phenomenal episode 10/10. I’m glad Laenor got that ending!!
Didn't happen in books. But fine now a days you cannot kill LGBT characters because of politics.
Rip to poor squire who died in place of him 😔
i was relieved too. had me palpitating when they were planning laenor's death.
I think it’s stupid .. what’s happening to seasmoke now.. the Bond is still there and the Dragon gets another rider later .. how 🤨🤷🏼♀️
@@indiankid8601 Tell that to Joffrey in ep5
@@jessisfabulousworld2108 because he will die offscreen in the next timeskip.
This show has no business being this good every single week!🔥🔥
Rhaenyra,Daemon and Alicent was a bomb in episode 6!!
And aemond
alicent bringing all the wackadoodle energy.
@@wala_ako_magawa Alicent was great
this show just keeps getting better and better
Emma and Matt love the chemistry and Olivia and Emma that scene with the dagger I watched it on replay so good great stuff can't wait for episode 8!

I hear that everywhere it's cringe, are you so desperate to fit in?
Tonight's episode has to be my fave. So much happened and I was legit on the edge of my seat
Strange to see the kids all grown up! Alicent's children are all such weirdos and I love it.
Daemon reminds me of Jamie Lannister the character you thought you'll hate since you first see him and then eventually you end up loving him no matter what.
