HOUSE OF THE DRAGON 2x5 REACTION!! "Regent"

I thought that was rhaenyra mom not daemons. It was the actress

Decent episode. i just wish there was more movement with these episodes; a lot of plot lines still not going anywhere and the daemon stuff? i just don't care about.

Long live Queen Alicent

Filler episode in an 8 episode season is crazy

I'll be honest they are spending way too much time arguing about who's aloud to fight and not enough actually fighting lol. I was expecting this season to be a war, but it's been like whole episodes of them arguing about who's gonna fight and then people just going and doing there own thing with like no consequences lol. I agree that they should all just go fight Vaegar together instead they're just sending a 1 or 2 at a time to get destroyed by Vaeger who's clearly big enough to take on multiple opponents

No based of his dream he didnt know her. When she said "My favorite son" he had a ultra shocked expression on his face. He had no idea what she looked like.

Finally they are giving Jace some of his ideas and stuff from the books

Daemon is there to get an army. How many times do they have to spell that out before you get it?

The guy on the left looks like a heavy metal or punk Viserys. The guy in the middle looks a bit like Jacaerys with lighter and shorter hair. The guy on the right looks like a long lost Cargyll twin... or rather triplet.

Daemon was not dreaming of having sex with his mother, he is being shown those things. He did not even know his mother, she died when he was 3.

I know folks think this episode was slow but I enjoyed it. I'm really beginning to love Jace and Baela and Mysaria. Her team up with Rhaenyra is certainly a good thing. So many people in their feelings about Aegon too. He got what he deserved. I'm so excited for the next episode!

Making promises one can't keep with the Frey always ends up good for everyone. Isn't that right, Robb?

the guy in the middle acting like alicent has personally offended him

How many times do they have to point out what Daemon is doing in the Riverlands to these lot? Eveb the Greens said it is vital to win the war. He's there to get an army

Someone give Blake a hint of common sense. Criston wasn't saying he didn't see war, he is talking about how dragon warfare is totally different and he never saw that before. Absolutely insane reactions while totally misinterpreting everything on screen.

I'm not Team Green, but Team Black is lacking in interesting characters imo. At least the Greens keep things interesting lol.

“Daemon on a side quest.” 😂😂 more like a season long side quest. He must be trying to focus on Dex build this season.

OOF...The mommy issues in this show are next level

I will wait to the end to pass judgment but there is no way Daemon would betray Rhaenyra like this. One of his only redeeming qualities is how loyal he was to his brother and to Rhaenyra.

I feel like Aemond standing at the foot of the bed was giving MAJOR Elle vibes from Kill Bill. "Word of advice, shithead? Don't you ever wake up."

I'm really happy to have Jace and Baela to root for..I'm excited about how their character development is going..and they both show integrity and not power hungry like so many others..

..I think it's finally time to officially declare for Black..and plan on burning my green pajamas.. Lol

Alicent is my favorite character

That dog is waiting patiently to dine on well-aged human lol

the producers found daemons popularity strange and now they are doing everything to destroy his character, daemon in the books at this point in the story is 100% loyal to rhaenyra as queen and he already knows that he is not fit to be king, and it is also said in the book that he did not fall into alyss hallucinations, they should have saved this hallucination plot for another character in the future 👀

I'm ready for Daemon to check out of the Harrenhal Extended Stay Motel, return to Dragonstone, and bend the knee again to Rhaenyra.

Alicent not being an affection mother doesn't mean she doesn't love her children. She literally stands in front of a dragon to protect Aegon in S1EP9 and we saw how she reacted when Aemond lost his eye. She loves her children but is afraid of what Aemond has become and angry at Aegon's carelessness. Both of which is due to her AND Visery's bad parenting. Its just funny how one minute TB fans claim Alicent doesn't care about her children and then the next are mad she won't put Rhaenyra before her children.

Viewers: yeah there’s incest we got used to it
HoTD: Daemon night fantasy with mom
Viewers: 😧😵🤮
HOTD: you welcome 🤗

Alicent shamed Rhaenyra and instilled in Aegon and Aemond that a woman would never hold power, she and Otto usurped Rhaenyra because she is a woman and now she throws a fit because she cannot rule as a regent. Well well well, aren't those consequences of her own actions?

Saw prepared you guys for seeing Aegon

Rook’s rest isn’t very far from kings landing. Dragonstone isn’t even that far.

They used probably boiling lemon/lime juice and vinegar as disinfectant back then along with boiled wine or hot hard liquor, since they didn't have rubbing alcohol. Even if the Valyrian steel isn't melted, the flesh can still fuse and stick to it. Remember Jorah Mormont's cure for grayscale...they literally had to flay the armor off him.

when you realize that no one cares what you think just because you are a woman...
I breathe the anger and helplessness of Alicent

“You should fly out together” yall say a lot of dumb things but that is definitely up there. There’s a reason why we rarely let the president and vice president be in the same location at once. But nah let’s just send the queen and heir out on dragon back.

I dont think that daemon was actually banging his mum in his dreams, To me it felt like Alys rivers is putting these thoughts into his head somehow, like how is she predicting all of his dreams after the fact.Also daemon doesnt know what alyssa (his mum) looks like (she was supposedly more of a honey blonde, also she had Heterochromia), Daemon was basically banging his version of what he thinks his mum looks like. Kinda like when daemon dreamt about aemond but he could only picture himself.

Aemond and Vhaegar are the real MVP in this season

Jace continues to prove why he really is the true heir to iron throne, more than Aegon and Aemond. Yes Jace has the rashness of youth and not wanting to be cooped up, but he's also been very strategic in gaining alliances. Out of pretty much everyone, he has succeeded in gaining the most alliances to Rhaenyra's side. He got the greybeards from Cregan Stark in the North, he got safety and support from Jeyne Arryn at the Vale, and now he's secured the crossing at the Twins from the Freys. Rhaenyra has actually prepped her son well at being the future king.

No Otto. No Aegon. Corlys, Daemon, and Rhaenyra sequestered and sidelined. A whole lot of Cole who people despise and hate so much they don't even want him on screen anymore. Alicent isn't far behind. the writers haven't a clue what to do with Helaena. the writing for Myseria's character has deteriorated. what is going on here?

No, the closest we’ve seen are brother and sister. They share more DNA than uncle and niece. Everyone seems to forget Aegon is married to his sister Haelena. If you mention incest everyone talks about the blacks.

For a man that fought in the dornish incursion, Cole was certainly not prepared for a war with dragons.

The DRAGONSEEDS are coming! 🔥🔥🔥

Plus why would Baela want to be heir to Driftmark. She is already going to be Queen.

Aemon is punishing everyone for the bullying they did to him when he was a child. That whole family is broken.

I like how they showed the small folk all having to eat rotten lemon while Cole is using lemon to clean his sword.

❤️👑 amazing . The finale is going to be insane

Jace telling his mom that there must be others with the same blood, neither of them mentioning the fact that his dad is Strong. He was like surely if I can ride a dragon they can ride them too. That was a really good scene.
And the powerplay in the small council chamber was really good. Aemond didnt say a word, they all voted for him, he just stands up "that's decided then" and takes the King's ball and walks over to the head of the table, sits down. Question, order, order, order, go! Really good stuff such a difference from the scenes with his brother.
In some of the interviews the actress who plays Baela and the actor who plays Jace often joked about that they're the only ones in the show with a relationship thats not only not toxic but actually healthy

There are two possible dragon riders, the man with the sick daughter, the other one was in the tavern and of course the third one Lord Corlys bastard son Addam.

The storyline involving Daemon and Alys Rivers, particularly the supernatural elements at Harrenhal, is both intriguing and well-executed. As a reader of the books, I find the portrayal of Alys Rivers by the actress to be exceptional. Her ability to hold her own alongside Matt Smith is impressive, and her performance effectively conveys the character's mysterious motivations and ambitions. This nuanced portrayal adds depth to the character, enhancing the overall narrative of the show.

Bro needs to stay off Twitter 😭🙏

Daemon doesn't wanna sleep with his mum 💀 he doesn't control the hallucinations, he was horrified
