Yes this one. Younger one in the back.

Ahh okay, for some reason I thought that Alycent and good old rotten king had 3 kids.

The casting choice is weird, Aemond looks older.

I was skeptical at first, but it has been really good.  I'm sad it's almost over.  I hate these god damned "seasons" of TV shows.  I want to watch 10 episodes in a row and then more.

I thought Viserys was a joke the first couple episodes.  He turned out to be the best character.   I am sad he's done for.

If anything Game of Stupid Women and House of even More Stupid Women has taught me, is that the females, well most of them minus Arya, really messed things up and caused so much grief needlessly because of their selfish hunger for power.

Who is the blonde chick dancing in the end with the black haired kid?

I was under the impression all of the kids were males (except for the Sea Snake’s family).

Has to be Alice’s unknown daughter.

Viserys is still a joke. Right up to the very end he was fucking things up. So he straightened out the claim to Driftmark. Great, but then turns around and sets up a civil war on his way out due to not knowing who he was talking too.

He’s literally been kept on opium by the Hightowers nearly every day for months or years.

For fun, here's the order of succession according to the Greens and the Blacks.  It's not clear where women are in the inheritance.  In some medieval societies they don't inherit at all, while in others they just got bumped down the succession order, i.e. if there wasn't a male relative with a close enough relation they might go back to a daughter.

i think GRRM said GOT was loosely based off of 'the war of the roses.' i got interested in that history and read some books. the family tree for that situation is very confusing. i wonder if the the house of the dragon is similarly based as its almost as hard to follow..

Extended dark scene filming is one of my pet peeves as well.  I did not notice it at all during that episode.  
I also hate not being able to understand dialog but, again, had no problem during that episode.

OLED TV + ZVOX Soundbar w/accuvoice turned on.

If the next show is photographed like the last one, I'm done.

I'll tolerate a minute or two of a dark shadow scene of barely discernible shapes, but not a large fraction of an hour.

That's on top of whispered dialog in heavy accents.

None of the episodes so far have been terribly interesting.

I mean it’s literally how the source material handles it. They are already stretching as is. The dance would be pointless without this backstory.

Episode 8 gave me hope. Just WTF this was in episode 9, was a snoozer. Season one finale with 10 will be either lit of a snooze before Season 2 when the Dance actually starts and no more of this backstory crap.

As with each episode this last one was better than the ones before it. It is the biggest dick in the Unsullied army. It was still another poorly lit episode with more mumbling.

We finally get some characters that are not complete douche bags. Lord Lyman Beesbury, Ser Harrold Westerling, and Mysaria are not total sell outs. Two get killed for standing up for what is right.

Ser Criston Cole, The Golem of the Queen, kills off Lord Lyman Beesbury in small council meeting and it's all good. No worries mate. Lord Beesbury was no one really, just a guy influential enough to be on the king's small council.

I am not sure if Princess Rhaenys stood up for what was right or she was just looking after her own interests. Based on the rest of the characters I would say the latter. We really do not know as there had bee so limited character development.

I am curious to see where the Cargyll twins story line goes. Those guys did not seem like they were total douche bags but I fear there will be plenty of chances for that to change.

I thought the episode was great, and not boring at all.  It was interesting to see how both Alicent's and Rhaenys' mercy is going to lead to everything that will now happen.

If they had a great show they would have as many episodes as they wanted.

GRRM said GoT needed 5-7 more seasons to properly wrap it up. HBO said sure. D&D wanted to move on and do Star Wars and they ruined a amazing series. Do you think HBO is happy with the way things went? As stupid as corporate America is they are not that stupid. They do not want a repeat.

Man, they really do need to buy more candles!  These episodes are damn near black and white.

So, does Rhaenys taking back her dragon tilt the advantage more towards Rhaenyra or is she just going to take her dragon and go home?
