The Red Dragon and the Gold

What a beautiful episode, very well filmed. It's about time, this is what I was waiting for and it did not disappoint.

The DRAGONS were out in all their glory!!!

It reminded me when I fiirst watched GOT and I would scream at the TV whenever Dany's dragons roared. Omg I can't wait for next week. The past 2 episodes were somewhat sleepers but still ok. I hope this wasn't a one time action episode and the rest of the season will be just them talking and plotting. Sorry I did not read the book. So I hope there's more fighting like this episode.

I plan to scream a lot more for my Queen. TEAM BLACK.

This is in my eyes the best episode of House Of The Dragon so far. I adored season 1 episode 8 for Paddy's performance and the nature of him taking his stance to help his daughter, as it was a pivotal moment in the show that set in stone the events that are now occurring. But this episode brought back the intensity to this universe that Game Of Thrones once had, but bringing to a whole new level with sequences that could never have been done in GOT. Despite being the same universe and locations, due to the time we're in this is a whole new world with the dragons dancing, and the season 1 finale was just a taste of what was to come. Alicent should have done anything in her power to stop this, but even if she tried I believe this outcome was inevitable and maybe she understood that. War is the foundation of this world, and with dragons involved and plotting behind the councils back, no house can stop this war with words. A barrage of blood is all that'll be left, and if this was just a taste then we're in for another classic television experience.

House of the Dragon's fourth episode soars to new heights with a spectacle of fire and blood. This episode delivers an adrenaline-fueled, dragon-centric thrill ride that will leave you breathless.

The war for the Iron Throne ignites in a breathtaking display of dragon-on-dragon combat that is both visually stunning and emotionally charged. The episode masterfully showcases the raw power and ferocity of these magnificent creatures, as well as the devastating consequences of their wrath.

Amidst the fiery chaos, the episode delves deeper into the complex motivations and desires of its characters. Loyalty, ambition, and the thirst for revenge drive them to make choices that will shape the destiny of Westeros.

The performances are outstanding, with the cast delivering raw, visceral emotions that resonate long after the credits roll. The episode's pacing is relentless, building tension with each passing scene until it explodes in a climactic confrontation.

With its breathtaking visuals, gripping storyline, and powerful performances, this episode solidifies House of the Dragon as a worthy successor to Game of Thrones. It's a must-watch for fans of the franchise and a testament to the show's ability to deliver epic storytelling on a grand scale.

What an amazing episode. I would guess 70% of the season's budget went into this episode. Best episode of the show in either season. This is what everyone was expecting in a show called "House of the Dragon".

The performances were wonderful, as usual. It gave us a close look at my favorite character in the show, Princess Rhaenys, played by Eve Best. It also gave us a further insight into the plotting of Aemond, and expanded on the introduction of magic into the show through the Prince Daemon subplot.

Between the battle scenes and the dragons, this is the most action-packed episode to date. Recommended.

I was so excited for this episode, and oh boy did it deliver!

This season promissed us war, and after the set-up in the previous episodes, we finally get a glimpse of what we can expect from this show!

This episode was marvellous! Incredible visuals, set pieces and directing! I was on the edge and very pleased! It was exciting and tense in the best way! They really went all out with this one, and they knew they had to!

Not only did the episode look fantastic, the story and development was equally great and stunning! Some turns i did not see coming and great character moments!

My excitement for what is to come reached a new high, and I am on board with the rest of the season!
