  1. I’m happy to say that after not being that excited about this show until it started, I will definitely miss it until Season 2. I’ve really enjoyed it, and discovered some new actors as well as being impressed by ones I already knew (looking at you, Paddy.) Never thought I’d be an Aemond fan, go figure.

  2. Well, I still need to watch the 9th episode first because I was away on business trip to Dusseldorf, Germany this last week and didn’t get a chance to watch it yet. So I’m hyped to see both of them!

  3. The Black Queen is a good episode title!

    I hope whatever happens in this episode changes Princess Rhaenyra to act in Season 2 more like she did in the first 5 episodes.

  4. Looking forward to the finale of a solid, yet uneven season 1. I believe this episode will increase our craving for S2 as soon as possible.

  5. I’m at a loss for words right now. This is definitely not how I imagined the finale. The only question I have now is, when are they going to have the second season begin?? Does anyone have any idea whatsoever?

  6. Enjoyed this episode. Good tension, and I guess dragon size does matter! Looking forward to next season.

  7. The strengths & weaknesses of both armies fleshed out in episodes 9-10. One controls the land & has the numerical numbers but the other controls the sea, supply lines & a tactical air superiority.. Season-2 should be fun..
