A few points before we get to the Twitter recap for this week’s episode of House of the Dragon, “Second of His Name.”
#1: I am solemnly ignoring your rude tweets about how pugs don’t belong in a medieval-influenced Westeros. They’re an ancient breed, possessed by royalty, and perfectly suited to the period and class depicted. (At least that’s what my dog told me.)
#2: though opinions on the episode varied (as usual!), people were generally excited to see new families with familiar names.
#3: fans love it when a Thrones show lights everything on fire. And it’s a Labor Day barbecue up in here.
