Take the Black: Why House of the Dragon worked
By Dan Selcke
Now that the first season of House of the Dragon is over, we look back at the successes, the failures, and the questions yet answered.
It’s time for another episode of Take the Black, the show where we talk through the latest news from the worlds of sci-fi, fantasy, movies and TV…or at least, that’s what we do usually. But this week, coming off the end of the first season of House of the Dragon, we look back at all 10 episodes and ask the big questions: was House of the Dragon a success? Why or why not? What did it do right? Did it do anything wrong? Has this brought Game of Thrones “back,” or did it never go away?
All these and more questions discussed below. Watch!
What were your favorite moments from House of the Dragon season 1? Least favorite? Characters who stood out to you, for either good or bad reasons? Lots to talk about.
