I wasn't a fan of how they treated Allicent like she's oblivious and naive in this episode. Everything she's been saying and doing in past episodes has been leading to this. Very jarring. Ser Criston sure is leaning into it. They should've named the show Ser Criston gets away with murder and assault of high lords in front of other high lords. But I guess that name was too long.
The dragon coming out and killing everyone who was cheering for darth aegon was hilarious though. Princess Rhaenys then not killing the people who imprisoned her with dragon fire was just poorly handled. [Episode 5 ending vibes] I have to imagine these are changes from the books. Still, show is super well made. Just strange character/creative choices in some big moments. |
