House of the Dragon Episode 6 just basically re-introduced the entire show to Game of Thrones fans. A ten-year time jump made life and circumstances look very different for the Targaryen family – while viewers had to get used to the new circumstance of a new group of actors taking over some key roles in the show.

However, as we quickly discovered, ten years wasn’t enough time to change all that much when it comes to drama in Westeros. There was fire, blood, and bastards galore – and Game of Thrones fans were left feeling like they need a whole time jump through years of therapy in order to deal!

Don’t come to House of the Dragon hoping for advice on forming healthy and functional relationships. This is NOT that show.

No one walks away from either Game of Thrones or House of the Dragon without some serious daddy issues, apparently.

Pretty soon fans are going to stop asking when is King Viserys going to die and start demanding that he does – lest we all continue to get grossed out.

Yeah, hope nobody was counting on House of the Dragon being comfort viewing. Because that’s clearly not happening.

Viewers taking pleasure in their own and discomfort is what the Game of Thrones franchise is all about.

Really puts that whole Oscars slap into perspective, right? Others might say Ser Criston got back the Karma that had been coming for 10 years.

Others might say Ser Criston got hit with Karma that had been coming for 10 years, and deserved to be the one burning at the end.

Lady Laena is about to become the Boba Fett of House of the Dragon: only here a brief time but already an I C O N.

The word “prince” in Game of Thrones is synonymous with the words “creepy AF.”

Who stole Vhagar? My boldest prediction is that it was lil Aemond … I don’t support his team BUT it would make sense #HouseOftheDragon pic.twitter.com/oeUv1gftQG
