I enjoyed this conversation but not the show (I am one of those rare creatures...). I decided to stop after episode 4. It is very well crafted, well-acted and the production value is superb. Also, I do not find it boring at all but: 1 – I had no one to root for. All the main characters are in a grey area (darker grey) and didn’t like any of them (I didn’t detest them either). They are flawed in a way that I don’t empathize or relate. Saying this because in GOT there were some very flawed characters that I really liked. 2 – I am tired of the violence porn. Right with the first episode when I started to see that they were going to overlap the duels and the birth, oh boy… This was already a serious issue for me with GOT (specially from the fourth/fifth season on) but I was so invested in some characters (also some moments were very cathartic). 3 – It is formulaic. GOT felt like “a story that wants to be told”, R.R. Martin and the screenwriters were at the service of the story – specially until the 4th/5th season. The House of the Dragon is a soulless well-oiled machine.

Psh. Dragons aren’t hard to animate. You just combine a model of a lizard with the wings from the model of a bat, throw some fire effects in, and make it bigger. [/closing shitpost tag]

And give yourself a little credit - you’re not just *A* notable 90 Day Fiancée watcher, you’re the most famous 90 Day Fiancée analyst on YouTube! In the distant future this will be an achievement on par with inventing power chords.
