Great reaction! Enjoyed it. This is one of those great shows that gets even better with a 2nd viewing

Garrett Serbin

is there no videos for your patreons where you dont have to sync and get full reactions? or at the very least have an extended reaction for every show you have the videos where we are suppose to sync?

How come you dont have the show running with you guys like other creators unfiltered?

This Show is filling part of the hole in my 💖, that was made when "Game of Thrones" ended. Viserys (The 🤴), was actually a rider (He had more than one rider), of "Balerion The Black Dread" ( the biggest 🐉 in the "GoT" & "HotD" Universe, & the 🐉 that the 💀 belongs to). I really hope the writers fit a few minutes into this Show, at some point, to show how big that 🐉 looked alive. That would be so awesome. Rhaegal (the 🐉 that Jon Snow rode, and the one that got shot down by Euron's fleet), came from a clutch of Balerion's eggs. When Viserys was telling his Daughter, Princess Rhaenyra, about "A 🎶 Of 🧊 & 🔥", and everything that went along with that, I got chills. I was so upset, that in the very first Episode, we had to experience the horror of Viserys's Wife, Queen Aemma (Her Maiden Name is Aemma Arryn.), getting cut open with no Anasthesia (And, she knows it will kill her), her dying, Viserys finally getting a Son just to have him die, and so on and so on. I get that it was a different time period, and having a Male Heir was important, but it did not have to be that way. Viserys's own Female Cousin ran against him for the Throne, when he won. He should have just let Rhaenyra be Heir to begin with, because she could have Sons to pass the Throne down to. Viserys should have let his Wife quit getting pregnant, because it was very obvious that she and her Babies always had a really rough time during her pregnancies and after. She had one die in the cradle, two Stillbirths, and two Premature Births, that ended in death. That is so much to deal with. Trust me, I know, because I had one Daughter pass away at 6 months old, I had two Miscarriages, my oldest Son has Cerebral Palsy, and my Husband's oldest Son passed away from a drug overdose. And, it angered me that Otto Hightower (the 🤴's 🤚), was immediately telling his Daughter, Alicent, to go into the 🤴's Chamber (to seduce him), when he had just lost his Wife and Son. What a piece of 💩 he is. Daemon is violent and impulsive. I can already tell that he is going to cause some problems. When the 🤴 was telling his Wife (when she was in the tub), about the dream he had of their Son being born with a Crown on his head, and there were sounds of hoof beats and swords clanking together, I guess part of it was really true, because those sounds were very evident in the Tournament, while his Wife was in Labor, and as his Son was being cut from the Womb. He wasn't born with a 👑 though Although, I wonder if the "👑" part could be referring to when his wife was Labor. When a woman is in Labor, and the head reaches the end of the Birth Canal, and it becomes visible, it is called "Crowning". However, when she should have been "Crowning", the Baby's feet or rear end would have been visible, because the Baby was Breech. I like that they had saddles on the 🐉...That makes much more sense than just hanging on. I guess the Targaryens got dumber as the years passed, because of all of the incest...And, that is why Daenerys didn't use a saddle. 🤣 Although, I don't think it would have even been possible for a person to straddle a person with no saddle. I read that they sized Drogon up too much in "GoT", and he wasn't as big as what they made it look like. OH, and Daemon was such a poor loser during that Tournament. 🤣 Anyway, I am so glad to start this Journey with you two, because you 🎸🤘. *R.I.P., Queen Aemma Targaryen & Prince Baelon Targaryen* 🥺 🏰🤰👶🔥🐉👼🪽🕊✝️😭🤧 *A🎶Of🧊&🔥*

I wasn't sure if people would consider the dragon's name a spoiler lol. I love Meleys! Harsh to pick a favorite dragon since they're all awesome, but if I had to pick one, it would probably be her.

Also Rhaenys is half Baratheon, which is why she called the knight with the stag sigil in the joust tournament ’cousin’. Her hair is black like a Baratheon with a silver streak, but for the series they made her hair all platinum like the rest of the Targaryens and Velaryons.

The dragon Rhaenys rides is Meleys. So beautiful. The lore of the dragons is really interesting. Here’s sort of a history & lore of the dragons Bridgeco might enjoy: https://youtu.be/yed8I9ciPeo?si=eG9-Xfdpfaow1slU.

thanks for doing a full length reaction to this! Love watching you guys! You're in for a treat!!

SeaShel

OMG I've been waiting for you guys to watch Hot D since yall started GOT. I'm so excited for you guys to watch this. And your read on Otto sending Alicent to comfort the King is correct.

Dana Sow

I think like most people you guys will start to like Daemon. He is also George RR Martins favorite member of the silver haired dynasty.

Joseph LeRoy

lmao one thing about this show is to not get caught up with the incest, Targaryens believe it keeps their blood pure therefore keeps their connection to the dragons strong. That's why it is socially acceptable for them but not for other houses *cough* Lannisters. For example viserys and his wife were first cousins.

Daemon IS sad. Queen Aemma was his and the king's cousin, they've known each other since birth. The ‘heir for a day’ line is an unknown. We don't hear him say it, we have Otto's word that he said it (Otto who hates Daemon). He never confirms or denies. He's a VERY gray character. He's one of GRRM's favorite characters for this reason. The king had to choose between losing both his wife and child, or maybe saving the child. Aemma was going to die either way. A rough choice to make no matter what and it wasn't his fault. He truly loved her. The book is written as a history, so even though us book readers know major plot points, the journey to them is VERY flexible. Makes it very interesting for all of us. Syrax, Rhaenera's dragon, was an egg placed in her cradle, she's grown with her. Caraxes originally belonged to the father of Rhaenys (the queen who never was). He's very unique among dragons due to his long neck and the way he roars. The dragon Rhaenys rides belonged to the mother of Viserys and Daemon. Daemon is played by the wonderful Matt Smith. His biggest roles prior to this were the 11th Doctor and Prince Phillip. He is an amazing actor.

MamaSeesa

Yes it is.

MamaSeesa

please do full length all season! I want to watch along but I forget what happened in the series.

RM

some extras you may want to consider, is mysaria, Daemons brothel chick

mya

thank you so much for a full length excited to rewatch season 1 ❤️‍🔥

ang

I’m not 100% sure but I have heard that a King getting cut by the throne is symbolism that he’s not meant to be the King.

Awesome reaction guys! I understand Bridgett’s response to the Queens death but at the same time, what was Visarys supposed to do? It was either they both die or u try to save the baby. No matter what, the wife’s fate was already sealed. I think everybody would try to save the baby’s life.

Chaz D

So hyped for this!!!! I love this episode and getting to see what Kings Landing was like when the Targs were in charge.

Battlebug

Great reaction! For the board here is some help with names Rhaenys the queen who never was. Viserys got picked to be king instead of her Corlys Velaryon is her husband. Rhaenyra is the new heir to the throne Her mother Aemma Aarryn was from the Vale Daemons wife in the Vale who they mentioned her name is Rhea Otto Hightower hand of the King. His daughter Alicent and his son Gawain. They are from Oldtown in the Reach The sword Viserys had is called Black Fire it’s Aegon the conqueror’s sword. His dagger is the same one Arya had in GOT. It’s called the catspaw dagger. Daemon’s sword is Dark sister. All the weapons are Valyrian steel. You were correct in guessing it was tetanus. Many others call it Targaryen Tetanus from being cut while sitting on the throne.

I❤️movies&tvshows

Great first episode reaction!! Going to be such a great season with you two! 😊😊

Ed Garland

OMG you just made my day 😎

Nora Bossa

I just squealed so loud when I saw this. Logging off of work and about to watch. Can't wait to see what you think of our Targaryen ancestors. lol
