.ShaneRyanHere & JoshJackson break down the 7th episode of House of the Dragon in letter form.
The deeper we get into, the easier it is to see why HBO chose the Targaryen civil war among all the other contenders for the next show from theuniverse.
By the way, how good is Ewan Mitchell as the new Aemond? The casting prowess here continues to be amazing, and this is one of their best choices yet. He’s like Matt Smith, but a little more serious and thus a little more intimidating. When Lucerys laughed at him, I wanted to scream, “stop!” That laugh has to be one of the ballsiest and dumbest things anyone on the show has done.
Finally, back on a serious note, I want to shout out Eve Best as Rhaenys. She’s been a very secondary or even tertiary character for most of the show, but she got to shine in “Lord of the Tides,” and was terrific both in witnessing Vaemond’s death rites, and even more so in her conversation with Rhaenyra. It’s another one of those characters who can lurk in the background, but where the casting is so strong that when her moment comes, she aces the exam.
And yes, we need more Harrold Westerling! How do you continue to waste Graham McTavish? Give me more gruff veteran Kingsguards and bumbling Beesburys. Which brings us to another point you raised, the tea for poor Dyana. Like you, I had my suspicions that this was more than just a way to terminate a pregnancy…that the bag of gold was meant to ensure her trust, and the tea was a way to kill her. Then again, Alicent didn’t subtly threaten her before giving her the money, and you probably wouldn’t do that if you meant to kill someone. So I’m going to lean on this being just 98% horrific rather than the 100% that an ensuing murder would make it.
