I think she’s currently 17?


I mean based on the lore I found and how the episode played out I think she's supposed to be 15?

SPOILERS AHEAD: Idk why the show has to straddle the fence here, either it's a medieval/fantasy story that's based in reality or it isnt. At first it's abhorrent she's being courted by some middle aged guy and then she's playing "just the tip" with her grown ass uncle. And after that she's fucking her grown ass bodyguard. Also idk if they could beat the "I'm a woman this is so frustrating cuz the rules are different >:[ " horse any harder dear fucking lord. We get it she's a woman. Treating the audience like a bunch of literal fucking retards that need to be reminded multiple times an episode how unfair things are for women. "We better finish the [already boring as fuck episode] with something strong!" Like offering Rhaenyra an abortion potion?? :rofl: For sure the worst episode yet, absolutely nothing happens and there's no build up to the next episode and the characters I hated before I hate even more now - and it's not because of some grotesque display of cruelty like King Joffrey it's because their fucking retards that say dumb shit and do even dumber shit.

Might be time to just take this show out back and put it down like Old Yeller. Kill it off at S1 and be done with it if it's just gonna be some stupid fuckin social critique rammed into a show about a family that fucks each other between dragon rides. What a giant pile of shit. Was so close to enjoying it after ep3 too.

Honestly, I kind of agree with your ramblings. Episode 4 was pretty average imo.

Did I miss an episode or something?

Last episode it seemed like the Princess hated the Queen and didn't even want to be around her and now in this episode they are friendly?

And that last conversation between them when the Queen tells her about the rumor it almost seems like she is jealous and wants to be lesbian lovers even though just before this episode it seemed she had taken the attitude of "I'm the Queen now and you ought to respect me"??

:blink:

Is this just gonna primarily be a teenage drama or what lol

I think she was 15 at episode one. But it’s been over 2 years since then

It’s hard to disagree with a lot of this

Whatever magic game of thrones had (when it was good) is clearly missing from this show

You guys have to separate it. It’s not Game of Thrones and you have to stop comparing it and contrasting it. It has its own identity.

This episode was fine. It was all politicking and polidicking, literally. Everyone is trying to make their moves to get the crown next and it’s all playing out. The Hand, the Sea Snake, the Princess, the Queen, Daemon ….. all went straight dirty politics and Daemon polidicked his own niece to try and be king.

This episode was like plenty of GoT episodes over the years, especially early to middle seasons with all the Little Finger politics

It’s always going to get compared to got, that’s inevitable. And it should be, the show was marketed clearly as a game of thrones prequel. It doesn’t get to simultaneously gain the benefits of that and skirt around being substantially worse than got

And the difference between the politics here and in got is the quality of the characters. Little finger is leagues more interesting than anyone in this show and he wasn’t even one of the best characters

I bet all of the haters would have been saying the exact same thing if they didn't watch GoT after it has been hyped up and out for multiple seasons.

Season 1 of GoT was a lot slower paced than this.

So exactly like S1 of GoT? Ned literally went out of his way to get his own head cut off after multiple really stupid decisions. If you think nothing happened and there was no build up then you are either retarded or a troll.

I don't think this has anything to do with pace. The pace of this show is too fast, if anything, at least storyline wise.

It's just very possible that the show isn't that good.

It is far from being bad. I have yet to see a legitimate gripe on this thread that isn't blind hate from people being sheep.

So far it is for sure better than the first 4 episodes of GoT. It isn't as good as season 4 or 5 but GoT was notorious for saving its best two episodes for 9 and 10.
