House of the Dragon immediately breathes new life into the world of ice and fire, proving that when done with care, adaptations of this rich world can still be enthralling.

Best Game Of Thrones episode in years. Perfect blend of action and story to set this series off couldn't ask for a better pilot episode.

the first episode filled me with nostalgia I think this story is going to be fantastic, it has everything I wanted to see, good special effects, violence, and sex, this episode looked fantastic and I feel that there is much more to come

Great start to the series! Perfectly selected actors and detailed scenery catch the eye. GoT has a worthy successor.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This series exceeded all my expectations. It is the best. Rather, in relation to what I prefer about Game of Thrones, the CGI should be improved a little because in some scenes there are errors. Either in terms of story, script, application, music, and costumes. Literally, even Game of Thrones cannot appreciate this quality.… Expand

A really well made pilot! Incredibly well thought-out beginning for the show. Dare I say, a better pilot than GoT. Just one bloody scene that others might be grossed out by. But I am once again truly excited for whats to come in Westeros

The fantasy king is back! A great start to the show with the emphasis. Finally, in the show, you can see how not a madman and not a sadist sits on the throne, but a man who loves his family.

I really enjoyed this season. I’m a huge fan of Westeros’ universe but I must admit It’s slow.

I’m a huge fan of Westeros’ universe but I must admit It’s slow.

Better than the last season of GoT, but holding my breath. Visually appealing and brutal. The writing is the most improved upon aspect. I’m looking forward to the next episode.
