Love GOT stories but tough getting pumped up over a story I already know.

Still wish they would of went with that Long Night series focused on Valeriya, children of forest , first men, and og white walkers etc. That series wpuld of been much more interesting as a prequel ............ but maybe would have been more LOTR thsn Got

 

[Spounman]

I should re-watch season 1 before this starts. I really liked it.

[Simple Southerner]

I'm thinking of giving it one more season but the shows on max seem to be going down in quality with crap like velma I only resubscribed because of the black friday deal which was 2.99 for 6 months. Bookie was kinda meh funny show but not hbo quality the discovery stuff seems to have diluted the max originals which used to be hbo quality.

That would have been horrible because new writers would have to come up with a brand new story. We already got that in the shit show that was the final seasons of GOT. I'd much rather have faithful adaptations of George R. Martin's work.

One thing different from the books and House of Dragons is the TV series portrays the Greens as the "bad guys" much more than the book.

No DD. Just screwed it up. The long night would have been much better imo than any of the spun offs offered. If not a long night series a Valyeria series at least .


Only 3 spin offs intrest me.

Long night
Valayeria
Snow

This show should have been 1 season .

None of those storylines were written by Martin.

Martin cant write everything just get better than DD. The 2 old story lines along with the "sequel " to hopefully fix or make better how it ended.

Big news has been revealed for the future of House of the Dragon. Shortly ahead of the second season's premiere, it's been revealed that the Game of Thrones spinoff has been renewed.


On Thursday, it was officially announced that House of the Dragon has been renewed for Season 3 on HBO and Max. The announcement comes days ahead of the Season 2 premiere on Sunday, June 16. Francesca Orsi, the executive VP of HBO Programming and Head of HBO Drama Series and Films, addressed the renewal in a statement.


"George, Ryan, and the rest of our incredible executive producers, cast, and crew, have reached new heights with the phenomenal second season of HOUSE OF THE DRAGON," the statement noted. "We are in awe of the dragon-sized effort the entire team has put into the creation of a spectacular Season 2, with a scope and scale that is only rivaled by its heart. We could not be more thrilled to continue the story of House Targaryen and watch this team burn bright again for Season 3.”

Hope the quality doesn't drop since they switched showrunners.

Just rewatched season 1. It's honestly much better than I remembered. It does lack those "Holy Crap" moments that GOT had in spades but overall it's pretty solid.

honest question, does anyone really enjoy this series?

I’d give it a C. I’ll watch it if there’s nothing to watch. I’ve never read the books and the time jumps to me was confusing cus Dr Who didn’t really age while the other characters did.

Great shows are even better the second time around, especially if there's a year or two between watching them so you forget some parts.

I'm rewatching it now, currently in the 3rd episode.

My only complaint is this - emphasis on ONLY. Besides Milly Alcock, Matt Smith, and Ewan Mitchell (older Eamond)
the overall cast of actors/actresses are a clear downgrade from the cast of GoT.
That said, if you'd argue that cast of actors/actresses is impossible to equal or surpass, that would be an acceptable counter-argument.

As jaded and critical as I admit I am, if that's the ONLY complaint I have, that speaks of the overall quality of this 1st season.

 

[GearSolidMetal]

Thought this was relevant -



No idea if they're planning on HoD will be a semi-annual series, so if a 3rd season won't be out by 2026 at least we have this to look forward to.

It's just solid. No big "holy shit!" moments(other than maybe the ending), but what a great foundation.

I think my favorite part in the series, is when they go back to visit the king and one of his handlers says something like "His condition has...gotten worse", and the long haired dude gives out the most sarcastic chuckle ever. LOL. It was exactly what I was thinking.

There were a couple. The dragon biting the other dragon in half, the creepy dude burning his own family alive, fake Laenor's body being discovered in the fire.

honest question, does anyone really enjoy this series?

I liked season 1 for the Got nostalgia and the dragons. But it wore a little thin towards end.. around the time they switched the main actresses it went south . Not because they chsnged the cute little girl to a bull butch lesbian but it seemed to coincide with story seeming more forced.


Like I did earlier for some reason they won't do the Long night series , a Valeryria series , an Snow series sequel seems doa.. all 3 would be so much better. Valwryria series might cost to much tho
