Here is my full reaction to House of the Dragon S1 E1&2!

What a phenomenal start to a show! The first episode was wonderful and creates such a great set up for what is to come. The premise is fantastic, the cast has great chemistry, and the worldbuilding is unparalleled.
So far, Daemon is the character I'm most entertained by. He's a bit impulsive and destructive, but he's really likable. The Targaryen family tree is a giant mystery to me, so I'm not sure what will play out in the future or who will sit on the Iron Throne.

Watched on: HBO Max / Runtime: E1 1:15:40, E2 1:02:46

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

At first I wasn't sure how I felt about Viserys because of the decision to save the baby over his wife, but then I was made aware that if he chose his wife, he'd be at risk of losing both of them. So even though it was absolutely horrific, it was the best decision he could've made even though he still ended up losing them both in the end.

It's not that women can't inherit the Iron Throne, but (I believe) it was the Targaryens who established the preference for male heirs over females. So, just as an example (SPOILER ALERT), in GoT, Daenerys had a claim to the Throne as the Mad King's daughter, but Jon Snow had a stronger claim as the male child of her older brother, Rhaegar. And a lickspittle is a synonym for a toady or sycophant; basically, a brown-noser.

An unexpected delight! I haven't gone back to see the earlier episodes in quite some time but I look forward to your own journey through and to see what you think of certain moments. You've already had me laugh more than once at your comments during the reaction. As far as being a sheep fan...well...hah. I look forward to a *very* specific moment later on, is all I'll say. You liking Daemon so early is also a delight. Matt Smith does this role so well and I'm so glad he both was casted for it and went into it with his usual energy. Just...charisma. Pure charisma. I love his giggles. If I was straight, either him or Peter Claffery would be the type I'd chase after.

I haven't watched this first season since it came out so I'd forgotten how quick Otto was at sending Allicent to Viserys to start the process of getting that marriage to happen. He was amazingly perfect at manipulating that situation. He never asks Viserys to marry her and he got a 6 month head start to set that whole thing up.

Your example has nothing to do with the precedent set. The great council did not set a precedent for male preference, as in the book the choice was between Viserys and Laenor, Rhaenys son, as both Rhaenys and Laena were discarded anyway. Here they took Rhaenys as to make it into a woman/men situation. The precedent set was to give the king the power to overrule Andal Law. Rhaenys would have inherit after Andal Law, since daughters (Rhaenys) come before uncles (Baelon). The great council did not choose the heir. The great council was created by Jaehaerys to have an overall summary of opinions to that matter. Jaehaerys still did the decision by himself, even though more than just the sex was in discussion as Laenor was just eight years old at the time and Viserys already a married man. This precendent gave Viserys the possibility of naming Rhaenyra heir in the first place. So Jon had the stronger claim no matter the sex, as Andal Law has primogeniture, where it goes through the oldest. Rhaegar's line is the senior line in that instance and Viserys and Daenaerys are junior lines.

Quick history as to why Corlys is understandably pissed. King Jaehaerys had two sons. Aemon was the oldest and Baelon was the younger one. Aemon was the father of Rhaenys, Corlys wife. Baelon was the father of both Viserys and Daemon. When Aemon died, both his wife and Queen Alysanne expected Jaehaerys to name Rhaenys, who was 18/19 at the time, the new heir, because Rhaenys was Aemon's only child and Andal Law favors the most senior line before junior branches. Jaehaerys instead named his other son Baelon as his heir, selected the junior branche, to the outrage of the Queen Alysanne, Rhaenys, Rhaenys mother and Corlys. Then Baelon died and the whole debate was opened again. Now it was between Baelon's oldest son Viserys and Rhaenys and Corlys son Laenor. Again, the junior branche in Viserys was chosen. The second time Corlys house were denied the elevation. Now the chance for Corlys to have his house marrying into the ruling monarchy and he is denied again. Three times Corlys was overlooked. In oversight its hard to understand, why Corlys didnt go absolute mental before. And now he has to see how the king plays with his lego, while the future of his house hangs in the balance. Give this dude a break.
