by Miller C. Lashbrook We have another episode of amazing television this week with House of the Dragon. This episode’s stand out is for sure Paddy Considine as King Viserys. He has been fantastic each week, but this week he really outs on a show stopping performance. SPOILERS AHEAD We say goodbye to Viserys thisContinue reading “TV Review: House of the Dragon – Episode 8”

by Miller C. Lashbrook This week we get a tension filled episode set all at Driftmark. This episode reminds me of an amazing piece of theatre, with the characters all in the same place and aggravating each other. The directing, acting, and cinematography all marry to make for seventy minutes of edge of your seatContinue reading “TV Review: House of the Dragon – Episode 7”

This episode has it all: dragons, family drama, medieval symbolism, and ACTION. If the first two episodes did not have your attention, watch thisContinue reading “TV Review: House of the Dragon – Episode 3”

by Miller C. Lashbrook House of the Dragon continues to bring me right back into the old feeling of watching Game of Thrones this week. I really enjoyed the continued character dynamics explored in this episode, specifically that of the Small Counsel and the Royal Family. Princess Rhaenyra is quickly showing that she is notContinue reading “TV Review: House of the Dragon – Episode 2”

by Miller C. Lashbrook Wow! In the first few minutes alone, House of the Dragon sends us right back to Westeros like we never left. I know many were apprehensive to tune in because of the mixed finale season of Game of Thrones, but this world is just too good not to come back to.Continue reading “TV Review: House of the Dragon – Episode 1”
