Am I the only one confused with all the similar names used in House of Dragon?

The Targs definitely liked to recycle name. Then they went and tossed a Joffrey in their too.

I feel like they have done a bad job of character introduction. Problem is these huge stupid time jumps.

I don’t mind the time jumps.

I dont Need to see Rhaenyra and Alicent be passive aggressive for 10 years before anything happens.

They tossed in Joffrey cause that was the name of the Laenor’s dude he was banging I believe. At least it was in the books.

Laena and Laenor as well

This is why I watch these types of shows with subtitles. That and anything with Tom Hardy

The time jumps are kind of drastic. I wonder if it will settle down or will the story always move at this pace? I have not read the books. They obviously decided that this was better then going into greater detail in each time frame.

If I’d watched Peaky Blinders without subtitles I would have been lost.

One is Visery's son with Alicent and the other is Rhaenyera's son with Daemon.

Looks like this confusion with names is what’s gonna start a civil war

Aegon, Viserys, Aemon, Baelon, Aemond all get reused a ton in the Targaryen family. Daenerys, Rhaena Baella also on the female side.

Absolutely. Go watch Taboo with him on FX. It’s like a completely different language
