Anyone like Rhaenyra a lot more than Daenerys?
Who’s ready for a big time jump in episode 3?
Someone give Paddy Considine an Emmy already!

Overall, I feel like it’s getting better.
That episode was in true GOT fashion. 🤌🏼
speaking of queens

When keeping it real…goes wrong.

Propaganda from someone who works at prime video and wants us to watch Rings of Power instead
You are just a hater
I loved this episode! It was my favorite so far. My husband did find it boring too lol.
Oh and the s*x scenes. Wtf was going on there?! Daemon randomly takes her to a stupid brothel and calls it a place where people ‘take their pleasures’ and proceeds to knock her up? Why couldn’t he just do it in her bedroom with privacy?! The scenes were horribly done too. And the whole Set Cristen thing.. bloody hell. Plus we got a random scene of the Queen and the king.. 🤦♂️. There’s nothing good about this show apart from the dragons and the theme song (which isn’t even its own..)

“and proceeds to knock her up”? What are you talking about? Daemon and Rhaenyra don’t even end up having sex. He likely took her there so people could see. The way he purposefully removed her hat.
Sir Criston Cole was likely about setting the foundation for that relationship. She took what she wanted, which was probably just physical for her. Yet if you read the books, you know what’s likely to come next for him.
I also was not a fan of Viserys and Alicent scene. I think the show runners were going for a juxtaposition between what was happening to Alicent vs what was happening to Rhaenyra. A juxtaposition between Alicent and Rhaenyra — one who chooses duty and the other who chooses love (or lust). After all, much of a ASoIaF is duty versus love. But it kind of fell flat.
Oh I couldn’t care less about ROP. I’m a GoT and Martin fan, and am horrified by how they’re wrecking the show. Instead of calling me a hater, why not engage? I could call you both paid plants by HBO too :)
