My thought was he really loves her and that was the only way to protect her from people who would use knowledge as leverage especially leverage he is responsible for. Kill the gay guy and himself and he protects her from his sin.

I did not watch Behind the scenes after.

He's not going to kill himself. The queen will be an angel of mercy to him and use it to win him to her side

But based on the preview for the next episode it appears we will miss the Greens vs Blacks

Have they specified what Viserys’ illness is? Not that it matters I guess. Just curious

The show is exceeding expectations.

I have noticed that you can really tell it’s based on a history book and not a fleshed out novel.

Even without the time jumps, it’s flying from important scene to important scene. No filler.

I can’t find it but Paddy Considine did an interview not long ago on a podcast that said it’s a “type of leprosy”. So not greystone but something that is progressive and deteriorating.

Except two dudes making out.


Idk I thought it was pretty slow going. The fight scene was confusing.

Not sure why Alicent is all upset. Her father tried to say she she fricked her uncle. She didn’t, and technically she didn’t lie.

Previews look good an assume she will still have sir Cristons babies, or at least some other bloke since they are coming out brown haired and white.

I'm kinda pissed they're recasting Allicent and Rhaenyra. Both were fantastic. I find it hard to believe they couldn't put some makeup on to age them a bit.

Yeah it was. I like Strong coming in and wrecking shop and throwing Rhaenyra over his shoulder. He’s her new savior.

not that complicated. she thinks R is a virgin. R definitely lied to her either directly or via omission about remaining a maiden. She thinks that being sullied ruins the name/being wed to a lord also her father is actively trying to turn her against R, so her son can be king... she is upset for obvious reasons.

Did Christon not go after Daemon when he and Rheanera were about to start making out in the middle of the dance floor? Then he got his hands somehow on the gay guy and crushed him? That’s more how I saw it.

Then don’t watch.

If at this point we’re halfway through the season and you’re loathing it, find something better to do with your time.
