The twin duel was way better than Blood & Cheesecake😂

More dragon scenes? Is that so much to ask for? Im surprised there isn't more complaints about this. We get the same garbage, here's cyrax! here's a glimpse of sunfire & dreamfire! Yeah alright HBO you should focus more on the dragons & less on the filler.

I really liked the scene between Rhaenyra and Mysaria. It thought it was well written and acted and fleshed out tMysaria much more, which is lacking in the book. Placing it after the fight with Daemon was a great idea and seeing events from Mysaria's point of view, where she is able to go or rather forced to, to from camp to camp and having an ambiguous loyalty was great and confirming that her love for Daemon has long gone. It reminded me a little of how Shae was written in the book and I'm glad they didn't make her a carbon copy of Shae when bringing her to the screen. It was perfect that they chose her to identify Ser Erryk and exposing the plot, thereby solidifying her good nature. I'd like to think she and Rhaenerya will become closer after this and it will be a great dynamic of the two of them with Rhaenys leading the Black Council now that Daemon has left. I'm also impressed that for the first time we get to see the inner workings of the King's/Queen's Guard. We've seen members like Jamie, Barriston, Sandor and even Brienne, but we haven't really seen much of them acting together and how they perform within the order. From the trailer for next week, we'll see the first ever King's/Queen's Guard funeral, which will be fascinating as I don't think it's ever been described in the books before.

Rhaenys and daemon are just baelon and Alyssa if they hated each other 😂

I think why they did not have the rat catchers idedtify is that to show aegon reacting emointal and send a message which is dumb but i think i otto points it out how killing them all was a bad idea as well killing blood but pure emotions i think they did not do what you say

Cole it rhymes with ahole. Fits him perfectly.

Poor Aenys man. Thought I am glad Egg was made King

The crown on the dog lol 😂

O gosh... Jace is heir of Rhaenyra. Baela is NOT. End of story. No need to analyze it. Baela doesn't seem shocked by her step-mother decision, she seems content she can be of use. I wonder if people would act the same if Baela was boy and Jacaerys was girl...? It simply shows how much gender roles are ingrained in modern people brain, so they are surprise girl is sent on mission boy was deny to go.

Otto choking up at the memory of Viserys got me. Also Otto roasting Aegon was inspiring.

From what we have seen of him in the first two episodes, i feel like they are trying to make Hugh Hammer a more likable character. Hopefully they are gonna use him as a tool to show how power (vermithor) can change a good person even though that is not how he was in the book

Cole used as target practice 😂😂

Really didn’t like your review last week but i liked this one a bit more. I liked blood and cheese and thought they did a great job covering bases in this episode they couldn’t last week. But firm disagree about anything with Cole and Alicent it is perfect they are hypocrisy embodied.

Cowards. Say what you want about Cole but he was a self made man. Of course he would beat their asses in a 3-on-1 RIP kingmaker

I agree man they really made the Kingmaker a dumb hypocritical brute. They butchered CC’s character. I love these videos man you’re killing it.

They make Cole jump between normal human, who cares for Allicent, to absolute unhinged psycopath. Doesn't feel natural or realistic at all. The show is great but some of the writing can be frustrating. Otto mocks Coles plan, but it almost works. (Nevermind, just realised you said about this). Carygyle Bowl was about as good as an adaptation I could hope for.

I looked up where George rr Martin got the idea from the Egyptians the pharaohs and their wives would do it!!! Cause your having mentally n unstable health for last dying culture race just be able to ride and take dragons 🐉!!!

Not feeling Criston cole this season

This episode was definitely better. I loved daemon ignoring the question if he accepted her as his queen and ruler. Next week should be daemon focused, I can’t wait.

Im pretty sure the Alicent/Cole stuff after her leaving Ageon crying was to further the metaphor wasnt it. Rhaynera, the lady who had the bastards, who said she never wanted kids etc but when one of hers dies shes traumatised and she hugs Jace after his brothers death, plays with her kids while at the height of war vs Alicent, the good noble lady who had legitimate kids, cant hug her son to comfort him, has another who needs a prostitute to provide love, whos first thought is to cover up her affair rather than comfort her daughter and second thought is continue the affair rather than comfort her son. Whos the dark and who the light here

I like this episode but they have completely ruined Criston Cole for me he is completely evil. He’s kinda just there not really doing anything in the books he’s a tactical genius and general plus a skilled warrior. It was him that petitioned Aegon being King along with Alicent.

One reading of Rhaenyra asking Baela to keep an eye on KL is that she knows Baela won't be reckless and try to fight Aemond if given the chance, whereas Jace may be tempted to do so. Rhaenyra also asks Baela to keep her distance and fly high.

I’ve been saying this since season 1, the show’s version of Criston Cole is such a awful adaptation of the character and season 2 has done a great job at surpassing my already low expectations for the character lmao

I was very engaged in this episode! Was one of the best so far. Everyone's acting chops were on full display.

Finally, an episode review from someone who's competent

Erryk Cargyll & Arryk Cargyll it's too bad none of the monarchs are worthy of their service and sacrifice

The kingmaker may be a violent Thug but will always be confident with violence and show force. As long as you don't have him do anything diplomatic you'll be fine. He is a hammer, not a scalpel.

Imo they have done Cole dirty. Maybe I am just too invested in my own interpretation of Fire and Blood, but I really don't like Cole being a one note villain. The first thing we learn about him is that he started a civil war and that Jamie thinks he was "the best and worst" of the Kings guard. I am not seeing that. I am seeing someone who is comically evil.

The show destroyed every argument that it self presented for team green. There's literally no reason to be team green unless you enjoy those characters more

I wonder if with the death of Ser Erryk, Harold Westerling will appear to join Rhaenyra's queensguard and will serve as the rival for Criston Cole

As much as I’ve enjoyed house of the dragon and asoif I think it’s easy for people to forget that not everyone engaging with the show has read the books and watched videos on the show and many of the excellent lore videos on this channel. That this is a television show that is going to be watched by 95%+ non book enjoyers and that when we go into discussions we tend to forget that. We discuss about what are big things to us, the loss of ambiguity, certain characters being fleshed out or not fleshed out, characters that may be cut or not exist in the adaptation (Maelor at the moment and for a long time possibly daeron). And then you interact with someone like a family member who says something like “why is Aemond’s eye blue?”. For all the discussions of pacing and everything and wanting things to be more fleshed out I think it’s easy to forget that adding more stuff would make more people just check out entirely, if we had seen Alicents royal wedding in season one, or the relationship with Harwin strong, or more screen time with arryk and Erryk or Aegons children before b&c, already long episodes would be even longer or split up across more episodes and the already slow burn of this show would be even slower and lose a lot of the appeal to the general audience. A part of me has to wonder having not been old enough to participate in any discourse during the golden age of AGOT how people reacted to the characters being cut there, no three finger hob and no Auriane Waters, no witch of highhart, Mance just being straight up killed, no visit to Acorn hall in ASOS, the type of changes that have seen really negative reactions from the community during this adaptation but that the general audience has no clue even occurred, the amount of articles I’ve seen written explaining the difference between the show and the books for b&c is insane. There is always going to be a disconnect between show and book enjoyers especially in a world and series as massive as ASOIF.

I really enjoyed most of this episode. I agree that the Alicent/Cole storyline is a bit of a waste and Cole is clearly a villain instead of a more morally complex character. Still, pretty much everything else worked for me in this episode. The duel of the Cargyll twins was both exciting and heartbreaking. 8/10 episode for me.

In my opinion, I thought this was the best episode of all season one and now season two. Over 70 Minutes, excellent! For me, I rate it a 9 out 10💯🔥🇺🇸 rewatch 5 times on Max

Aegon carrying team green on his back is crazy.

This episode is my favorite by far this season… The fight between the twins, that had me in tears when it was over… For the Watch & the Lord Commander!! Here here for Brother Bittersteel!! Aegons anger & temper when he was destroying his fathers Model of Old Valyria… Was acted damn good!!! “My son is my LEGACY!!” When he strips Otto his own damn grandfather of The hand of the King title was one of my favorite scenes with Rhys, he’s such a damn good actor.. Cole tried to act like he was all big & bad ass By trying to curb the way He was addressing his King but Otto cut through that like Sir Barristan Selmy cut his way to Melys the Monstrous During the war of the Nine Penny kings.. “The king is my grandson & my grandson is a FOOL!!” “Is that what you think? He was right about you” We got to see some shades of Tywin Lannister when he said those words.. I enjoyed seeing Daemon stand his grown and be 100% himself when he said it was a mistake cause he was being honest.. The way he slapped the cup off the table across the room before he walked up to his wife .. Phenomenal acting from both Matt Smith & Emma… Cole is really a walking pile of Excrement for trying to shift blame for the beheading of the heir the throne .. That poor boy!! I also liked how they showed Cheese hanging & the dog was upset that he was dead .. I hope you enjoyed this Episode mi’lord !! Next week we take Harrenhall !!! Loved how Mysaria (apologies if I misspelled her name.. interacted with the Queen.. early for shadowing.

I love that Baela accept Jace as a Strong then talks about Leanor.

tom glynn carney is doing a phenomenal job as aegon

This episode was amazing. Really enjoyed alot of the details. Aegon's rage at the death of his son, his carelessness when it comes to the ratcatchers, Otto's rage, Criston Cole's hypocrisy, and the Tragedy of the Cargyll Twins. This was absolutely fantastic.

1st to take the Black for House Blackfyre🗡 Can't wait to hear your thoughts.

Utter tosser hate him....

Aegon ii would have been a better king than Aegon iii. If only he was not crippled and still has his dragon Sunfyre. He could have defeated the rest of the rebels and brought peace to the realm

HBO please make Daeron die in battle on top of Tessarion

The last Agni Kai of Westeros

Alyn was the perfect successor to his grandfather(father) Legacy. The Sea Snake would be extremely proud.

Great video!!! I love the witcher universe <3 Someone have the link for this map?

Short term: Greens Long term: Blacks

My guess is season 2 of HotD will end with Rhaenyra seating the iron throne.

Cregan’s wrath is what a true wolf of the North. This makes me believe Ned Stark was more an Arryn than a Stark.
