House of the Dragon Season 3 Episodes 1 & 2 Review

A spoiler-filled review of House of the Dragon Season 3 Episodes 1 and 2, exploring the politics, performances and power struggles shaping Westeros

A whirlwind I say, a tumultuous whirlwind!

First two episodes of House of the Dragon is out and I’m enthralled. I didn’t realise how much I missed this show (this type of show in fact) where I have no idea what is going to happen scene by scene. We need more shows like this, and we need more people watching this show.

OK so I go in, delve into a full blow breakdown of Episode 1 Salt and Sea, Fire and Blood and Episode 2 Queen's Landing with some very strong threads linking the two - in no specific order these are:

  • Why aren’t more people watching this brilliant show?

  • Episode 1 recap

  • Episode 2 recap

  • The reasons why Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon are indeed brilliant shows

  • George R. R. Martin’s interest in mothers and motherhood

  • Give Emma D’arcy all the awards

This is an extra, extra, juicy, long episode for everyone watching the show, so I must warn you before you venture forth, SPOILERS are included.

I will be doing weekly recaps of each episode and sharing random thoughts on Instagram too.

Don’t forget to share your thoughts, comments, share, like, subscribe and all that good stuff.

Enjoy.
