The season finale! Did you see it ? Post your thoughts here and as usual, lets try to avoid mentions of future events in the timeline.
And as an aside, it’s been an honor discussing HotD S2 with everyone. See y’all in 2025 with Dunk and Egg!

This whole season could’ve been boiled down to Rooks Rest and the Dragonseeds, and that’s it. Daemon’s Harenhal Acid Trip was B story filler.
85% of this entire second season was filler. Rooks Rest was the dragon fight we’ve been waiting for, but everything else was taking advantage of a captive audience, fluffing out 8 episodes, while teasing a season 3, which I wouldn’t be isn’t also going to be filler teasing out a season 4.
This is all so cynical and upsetting.
I have no problem with Daemon exploring his personality through visions. I think it gave some compelling scenes, but I do think the season overall was left dangling. It needed to go a little further into the story, like another 2 episode worth.
I think there’s a number of book readers going “get to the good bits”, but it also sometimes sounds like “hurry up and die” to certain characters. If they are good characters, I’ve got no problem spending some time with them first. That will mean material will be added from what’s in the books.
On the whole I thought Daemon at harenhall was good, maybe a bit too long, but good.
