    Best episode till now👌

    Many events have occurred in one of the strongest episodes since the beginning of the show, which includes many decisive situations and unexpected events that will lead to the continuation of the fire and blood conflict.

    It seems that the series will take us further than expected, and this is what we always want." And by the end of the sixth episode, the indicators were leading to a successful seventh episode by all standards.

    I hope you have a lot of fun and excitement for all the upcoming episodes .

    House of the dragon each episode will evolve from better to better and we will have an enjoyable watching with the conclusion and these are my expectations.

    A Spark

    Greetings from Lithuania.

    "Driftmark", a 7th episode of "House of Dragon" was a superb because it moved story forward in a dramatic way (no spoilers). Sometime one spark causes things to move. And talking about dysfunctional families - they got nothing on this family we are seeing.

    I loved the mood of this episode. It was dark, and you can see and feel how the clouds are becoming darker over heads of this family. Alliances are being made and friends becoming even closer.

    Overall, 7 episodes into this show i really like it. Haven't read any of the books but i love quality television, and "House of Dragon" is one to admire.

    Best Episode So Far

    This episode is just perfect in every way.

    More and more characters are showing their true colors, people claiming other dragons for themselves, stabbings and backstabbings, seeds of a civil war being sown, relationship dynamics of pretty much everyone changing.

    This is the episode where ish really hit the fans and characters stop being coy and show their true intentions to each other, especially Rhaenyra and Alicent.

    I really loved that the twists kept coming and multiple times throughout the episode, even till the end, the character we were rooting for just 3 minutes ago does something and becomes a pos immediately, and it shows that none of the characters here, at least the main ones, is that good and all of them are drowning in depravity as Rhaenyra herself said.

    Last episode that we were introduced to the children, they were mostly side characters and had a less direct impact on the events of the episode and the show as a whole, but in this episode they're pretty much the main characters as they start a domino effect of a series of unfortunate events that escalates quickly and is gonna change the course of history.

    Everything in this episode was pretty much perfect, from the direction and the pacing which got more intense and escalated as the episode went on, to the acting, music, and cinematography, and the great twists and the writing. Though the CGI isn't perfect, it is still acceptable and I'm sure this season definitely doesn't have the budget that GOT had for later seasons. It is still really good, but it's still noticeable in scenes where people are flying a dragon.

    All in all, this was a great and enjoyable episode and the starter of a chain reaction that will presumably lead to even more intense episodes and events in the following episodes.

    A better version of the Maury Povich Show

    You are NOT the father.... Such an amazing and intricate show. People who complain about how "it's not intricate like GoT" are completely dull minded and foolish. They don't appreciate the complexity of the relationships that have been written wonderfully and the politics that are going on as well. If you are not mature enough to enjoy these parts, you shouldn't be watching the show. It is setting up so much. Also, the people giving this one star because of the bad lighting are immature and dense. The lighting was bad this episode but it does not warrant one star. These types of people are the same people that hate their lives and can't find any positivity in life. Get over it and appreciate the grandeur of this show.

    Black vs green the beginning

    Well this part moved at very fast pace. The unusual relationship between daemon and rhenyra has been officialised in this part. The clear evidence of green vs black's war is shown in this season.

    The prophecies are important part of the story and in this one you'll see one truelly happening.so from next time I ll pay more attention to Helena because everytime she speaks it will be the climax of next episode. The screenplay is very smooth.dialogues are compact and poetic while you are watching please focus the dialogue between daemon and rhenyra where daemon says "at least i got a chance to mourn " The only negative point was the lighting. There is already lot of comments and memes circulated about the bad lighting. Overall a joy to watch.
