Great season finale

Season has picked up steam towards the end.

Overall better than I was expecting. Far better than the dross that is rings of power.

 

[Throrik]

Overall better than I was expecting.

I think with the way that GoT ended with the last few seasons, nobody came into this thinking it would be any good. It's been fantastic in my mind. Can't wait for season 2 now.

WFH Mondays with my other half going into her office, has proved very useful in keeping up-to-date and avoiding spoilers. But even this morning there was stuff I nearly inadvertently clicked.. it was always the way with GoT it's incredibly annoying.

Are we allowed to talk about it yet?

Great season finale. Like others I wasn't overly impressed with the early episodes but this series was definitely a grower. Set up so well for season 2 now. Getting those GOT wow feelings again.

 

[MooMoo444]

That was a spicy finale

 

[Efour]

That was the end?? Episode 10 last one?
oh well .. lol
It was "just" getting interesting.

Didn't get spoiled (somehow)
This was a great season that made me love the universe again after the GOT debacle.

Shame only 10 episodes as was ramping up well but season 2 should be a banger if the quality keeps up.

Great episode - much spice!

The shot of the huge dragon in the rain behind the castle…. Phwoar

Baby scene was very uncomfortable, worse than the first episode. I imagine that will upset many people - not sure whether it was necessary tbh. Grim for the sake of grim.

Overall a fab series - I can’t wait for series 2.

 

[Kyo]

Can't wait for next season now. Brilliant setup.

Echo all of this completely. Currently reading my World of Ice and Fire book and have asked for Fire & Blood for Christmas.

Expectations were basically non-existent for this season, it was barely on my radar but I think that was objectively better than GoT s1. Episodes 7, 8, 10 and most of 9 were all incredible. I think there's high rewatch value too, so many characters and subplots, the whole thing was fantastically written, shot and acted.

 

[ArcticHeron]

Quite enjoyed it, but the whole thing felt very flat from the start for me and didn't really seem to find it's legs, even in the stronger later episodes. I was really hoping for something a little more personable then what we got, but hey ho. I felt much the same about the first season of GoT so here's hoping it pulls focus a little more in season two much as that did.

 

[Azza]

Pretty disappointing that episode to be honest.

Spoiler

The dragon 'fight' wasn't all that - I guess because of the mismatch but just reminded me of a Quidditch scene from Harry Potter.


I think it would have been a lot better if we'd been shown Aemond telling someone before the Daemon - Rhaenyra conversation.
