House of the Dragon - Game of Thrones spinoff (SPOILERS)

Anonymous
And everyone gets killed so sure it’s rough for set criston. Running to the countryside with the princess sounds romantic… and boring.
Maybe run to Los Angeles and make some multimedia content.

Agree with this. I do think the actress is talented, but I feel like the costume department needs to up its game. Allicent always looks on point and gorgeous with shiny hair, just enough makeup. Rhaenyra looks like a dishrag with limp hair, ill-fitting dresses, no makeup. Her dresses were killing me. They are also bad colors for her. We know they are capable of more - Emilia Clark usually looked fabulous in GoT.

I am so glad she and Damon didn't have sex. That was ick.

One thing I really liked - even though it was sad - about this episode is the theme that princesses and queens are really just women trapped in castles for the purpose of birthing heirs. Brings home how little agency Allicent has and why Rhaenyra isn't eager to marry.

Also, we knew the King was sick but gott damm, what does he have? That bedroom scene with Allicent was horrific with all the black splotches on his back, and then when he confronts Damon or The Hand (can't remember which) his hand is all black and shriveled.

Now it’s a sperm race coverup orchestrated by her.


It was the sexual assault episode. King rapes Alicent, Daemon groomes/tries to rape Rahaenyra, Rahaenyra rapes Ser Criston.

Hope we can return to fantasy Succession.


None of those were rape.

I think either his thrown was poisoned (he pricked his finger on it in the first or second episode). Or it’s a crazy bacterial infection from that finger slice.

I thought I saw somewhere that the actor playing Viserys confirmed it was a form of leprosy.

Power imbalance.
Looking uncertain - esp cristin cole, Director had him “ look back” at this oath and guardsman door several times while undressing. No win situation there and he lost time in taking the high road out the bedroom.

Uncle took her a scary new place where she didn’t know anyone plus naked orgies staring at her AND he removed her disguise hat and cast it away. Very premeditated

Yet neither are rape.

When boss Harvey Weinstein asked for it in exchange for keeping your lead role, it wasn’t rape, right?

So tonight’s episode was nuts!! Did NOT envision Ser Criston as a rage killer! Daemon shouldn’t have surprised me but yet I still didn’t want him to kill the wife either. Jesus this one was bloody.

Why did Criston Cole snap like that? He would have known Rhaenyra is a princess and he’s just a knight, so she’s not going to run away with him. And why is Alicent so bothered by Rhaenyra not telling her about her sleeping with Criston? She used to be Rhaenyra’s friend and sneakily married her father, the king?!

First thought he knew the Daemon trust rumors and saw them discussing a marriage for themselves and rushed in to stop that.

As the room cleared it was the gay lover getting punched, after boldly accusing Criston of being the princess’ whore lover just based on him looking around the room.

And wtf did Criston confess, did he not hear the brothel rumors?

And are we supposed to believe they kept on sleeping together after that first time hence the Run Away With Me pitch made more sense? He certainly put it on the line. And she constantly talked about not getting married and not doing roles.

The way they show daemon grabbing R’s face and secretly talking I had assumed someone was beating him up or protecting the princess.

Guess Cole missed that. Could have gotten a two-fer.

Ser Cristen isn't smart at all. All he has to do was keep his mouth shut. But no he had to go and confess to Alicent. It is interesting watching Alicante play the game since papa Otto is gone
