House of dragon hasn’t been bad, but it hasn’t gripped me either. Feels like diet GoT. They’re trying to do what Hollywood does: figure out the recipe and cash in.
The problem here is the discontinuity in the timeline. Some actors age, some don’t, some get replaced… All on top of a fairly emotionless story. After season one of the original, you have a developing cast that’s interesting and a climax that makes you go ‘WTF?’
At the end of HoD, I just let out a “meh.” I may go back, assuming I have nothing better. I’m far more interested in season 2 of Severance or many other higher quality series out there.
Diet GoT hits the spot, it is absolutely right. I watched half the first season or and got bored because it repeated so many of the things in GoT. Maybe not the directors fault, I guess the books are just written that way.
It focuses a lot in character building and setting the scene for the terrible mess that’s apparently to come. Shit starts to hits the fan towards the end of the season… I’m very excited for season 2.
Especially since there’s less chance of all this character development being flushed down the toilet like in GoT, because the source material is actually finished

A climax that makes you go WTF because it threw out 7 seasons of character development?
We do not talk about season 8. Say you’re sorry.
Kidding aside, I’m 100% with you.
PS - I was talking about the climax to season 1.
Season 7 is just as bad. Wake up 🤣
If you haven’t watched GoT 1-6 in a while, go watch season 7 and tell me WTF is going on. It’s a god-honest fever dream. 🫠
