This week on Take the Black, we heap praise on Paddy Considine for his Emmy-worthy performance on House of the Dragon as well as grow frustrated with The Rings of Power.

It’s time for another episode of Take the Black, the live chat show where we talk all things fantasy, sci-fi, movies and TV. This week, we return to two of our favorite topics: praising House of the Dragon, which by this point has distinguished itself as the fantasy show to beat; and crapping on The Rings of Power, which has almost reached its season 1 finale but has yet to make a good case for itself.

At least according to us. See if you agree with our points:

We go long ranting about our problems with The Rings of Power, but we do eventually talk about a few other things we’re watching as well as hit up the WiC News Lightning Round!
