  • Cregan strak joined the war. Cregan stark ends the war. Cregan stark make a king. Cregan stark leaves for home. The ultimate chad
  • @nykia31
    How such a rich history can be invented out of someone's mind, is amazing to me.
  • @tealsquare
    The world was burning but Dorne was like 👀
  • @seanskre1717
    Cregan Stark: >Brings a 20k strong army >Becomes hand of the king >Kill and exile traitors to the crown >Leaves
  • @blackout995
    Me in the first half: yeah ok Alicent, Rhaenera, couple of kids... makes sense. Me by the end: who the fuck are these people
  • Cregan Stark could have been Hand of the King for a long time and gained so much influence over the realm but instead came home to Winterfell and let the realm deal with itself. Now we know where Jon Snow got his "I don't want it" energy. What a guy.
  • @penoyer79
    Crazy how Corlys who was on the verge of death for most of season 1... is actually one of the only main characters to survive the war.
  • @tomkyuu8426
    Criston's death will be the most satisfiying one in the series.
  • @elil2764
    Starks always seem to get it right. Send in battle hardened warriors welcoming death while simultaneously gathering a large host. listening to a women's council on how to avoid more suffering for the realm was genius. They may have "cold" personalities but they're extremely loyal and somehow remain humble through it all.
  • @ramiabdo5953
    Lord Cregan Stark is as honorable as Eddard was, but unlike Eddard, when he reached Kings landing. He didn't fuck around, he went straight to business. That's why he is better than Eddard in that sense.
  • Is it just me or is the saddest part of the dance of the dragons the death of the dragons? They’re bonded to their riders and do everything they can to protect them. Look at Stormcloud, he died because he protected Aegon and even managed to get Aegon safely to Dragonstone before dying.
  • In a horrific twist of irony, the woman who started this string of tragedies in her pursuit for power ended up with no power or influence and died a lonely and miserable shell of her former self.
  • Watched this after S1E7 because I got far too excited. As someone who hasn't read the book, my jaw dropped SEVERAL times. I screamed. I paused to compose myself multiple times. If the showrunners get this right, this will be one of the most exhilarating, bloody, heart-wrenching, terrifying and mind-blowing series' in TV history. I cannot wait.
  • @riiinarose
    Alicent’s entire line was wiped out… All of her kids and grandkids died right before her eyes.. thus continuing the Targaryen Dynasty through Rhaenyra’s sons … a sad price to pay for an ambition she never should’ve had
  • @Astromamut
    Episode 8 starts at 5:50, which means that the series so far covered only 16% of the story
  • Battle Above the God's eye honestly is what I am anticipating the most, I hate to see my favorite Dragon die, but to see ol' One Eye get his, will be well worth it.
  • Thank you so much for explaining 4 seasons of " House of the Dragon" in just 35mins
  • @MegaDAli95
    What I got from this and watching the shows is that GOT, HOTD and their entire lore can be summed up as “House Stark cleaning up messes that involve crazy people from House Targaryen”
  • Just watched the last episode of house of the dragon and I simply COULD NOT wait after that ending
