to me, it felt like a great second-to-last episode of the season. but of course, this was a the finale. There is no more this year, or next year. I get that it takes a while to make those dragon-centric battles (Rook’s Rest was a great teaser of that, at least), but COME ON! Did I like Daemon finally coming around to Rhaenyra? YES! Did I like Aemond squirming once he realized that his one beeg dragon wasn’t going to be enough to get it done anymore? YES! Did I like Alyn finally telling off Corlys? Ehhhhh…sure.
But what was the big finale moment? I’m not asking for another epic skybound dragon battle setpiece, but the people need SOMETHING. Even something like the fight between Brienne and the Hound in GOT: a fight that did not involve armies or fantasy creatures, but which was still narratively juicy.
So what do you think?
