Everybody talks in Westeros. No seriously: everybody talks
You’d be forgiven for tuning into House of the Dragon and thinking: hang on, what the fuck happened to Game of Thrones? The latter show’s glory days of sex, blood and rock ‘n’ roll are but a distant memory. The tensest scene in Dragon’s most recent episode involved a small council meeting among House Black to decide who should become Prince Regent. There were a couple of sex scenes but these took place entirely in Daemon’s imagination.
In episode 5, various members of Aegon’s team – notably Larys Strong and Criston Cole – discuss why it should be Aemond and not Alicent . In short, the optics would be terrible: she is a woman. As Alicent is overruled, and music starts blaring, it felt as though we were cutting to an ad break – could I interest you in a mattress subscription? – after an awkward conversation.
