I don't like how the show rewrote her to be an apology letter to seething Dany supporters still buttmad about GOT S8. Rhaenyra would've been a much more interesting character if the writers actually adapted the book.

Yeah, and then you took off the costume and made yourself look ugly and mannish again, and for some strange reason, you felt miserable and anxious. You dumb bitch.

Not her fault that the showrunners and writer's lost the plot immediately so all she can "What would you have me do?" and not know what to do with her hands. The war should have ended already at the coronation according to the writers.

Honestly, she's the right amount of bitch. My problem is with Alicent. Why go so hard to paint her as a good person, a paragon of justice? We know she's despicable in the books but everything she does she does for the fear of her children's lives which isn't unfounded considering that Rhaenyra ordered the torture of her boy right after he lost his eye.
Ryan Cuckedfag might even be worse than D&D at showrunning. At least they had 4 seasons of good TV going on until they threw the towel, yet it took that faggot season TWO to completely fucking ruin the goodwill they gathered back with HOTD after the disastrous GOT finale.
And perhaps the single biggest most pretentious and cringe bullshit this show put out are these lines uttered by Rhaenyra
>History will paint you a villain. A cold queen, grasping for power and defeated
as if, they are telling the viewer "OOOOKAY, we know that's how Alicent is depicted in Fire & Blood but consider unreliable narrator = open to debate!" as if they already hadn't fucking admitted that they're making a completely different thing by making these two childhood friends which is NOT even REMOTELY up to debate in the fucking BOOK so why pretend like you care about the fucking BOOK at all?

I was GENUINELY ready to be Alicent's dickrider from tthe ending of season one knowing what happens because I believe the situation she finds herself in justifiably pushes her into the actions she takes but not only they alienated Book!Alicentfags with this decision, they also completely took all the chance from showfags liking her since all her arc ever amounted to in the end was "dumb woman who did everything wrong and should have trusted Rhaenyra from the start" The show is very morally favored towards Rhaenyra and while they could easily back up the greens' claim to the throne by choosing a mouthpiece, like fucking Cole or even Alicent herself and make them outright fucking say Rhaenyra will put the green kids to the sword to back the claim of her bastard children from Harwin, a truth that the seven kingdoms and then more knows, which isn't disputable in the show (at least there's room for speculation in the book) because their legal daddy is fucking BLACK and there isnt a SPECK of BLACK GENE in those god damn white kids.

Also I'm fucking pissed that we're not getting Dunk this year when they have the show ready to go. Egg will be a whole ass adult when season 3 starts filming at this rate. ASOIAF will never see the finish line within GURM's lifetime and the TV franchise is being msihandled heavily by HBO because they trust retarded showrunners with it. It's so sad to me that Westeros as a franchise is dead because there's no other work that bothers to mix "medieval fantasy" with "political intrigue"

Season 2 and 3 of Dunk and Egg are filming back to back. I am pissed that they moved the air date though, would have been fun to have the gen back for it over the Christmas holidays. Now it will be back at the busiest time of the year.

In both the TV show and the book, Rhaenyra should've been 100% usurped by Jace. I don't care that he's a bastard, he's so much more competent and likeable than her even though she set him up for failure in every way, it's unreal.

Alicent in episode 1 sees Criston Cole take off his helmet and says "gods, he's DORNISH!" once she sees his facial features. So characters can notice someone's ancestry or where they come from simply based on their face, just like how in the real world I can tell someone is probably from the Philipines if they're tiny asians with high hairlines.

And a scene later Alicent sees a black guy in a white mop, blacker than any Summer Islander, and just calmly accepts him as a cousin of the Targaryens (the whitest family in Westeros.)

This show is dumb sludge written for low IQ phonewatchers.

I actually really liked her before the time skip. Not a monkefag either, just thought that she was a well written character. She's spoiled, entitled, impulsive, and abrasive, but also clearly intelligent, brave, and charismatic. They sandpapered her personality after the time jump into "WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE ME DO". Her flaws just vanish, but so do her admirable traits. Sure, she pays lip service to the human cost of war, but how the fuck would she even know? This is a person who grew up at the absolute peak of privilege, during the longest time of peace and prosperity that Westeros has ever known.
She doesn't need to go full fat mad queen, but fuck, give us something.

The writers seem to expect us to root for her like Dany 2.0 but with Dany we saw someone who had been mistreated and used by the world, now maybe Dany is kinda stupid and doesn't know what she is doing all the time but we the audience can invest ourselves in her rise to power because we know at her core is someone who sees all the violence and terror in the world and thinks "I have to do something about this"

as you point out Rhae just doesn't have that, it's funny that I keep coming back to that meme line of GRRM about tax policy but it ironically really does apply to HOTD. What is Rheanyra's tax policy? what exactly would she do as queen that is so different from the greens? and if the answer is nothing, why should anyone care who gets to be ruler?

Rhaenyra is not a good enough person to invest yourself in nor is she a bad enough person to be entertaining she's the bland middle ground that inspires nothing

Ironically, Nyra is one of only two rulers whose tax policy we do know, and it was brutal and specifically targeted at small folk.
But yeah, she can never be Dany 2.0, because Dany literally built herself up from the ashes. She is young, and she doesn't know how to navigate the political landmine, but she knows poverty, hunger, how it is like to be sold as someone's slave. Her crusade makes sense. Nyra's only real complaint in life is that she can't ride the cock carousel, whereas a man could fuck as many bitches as he likes. Like, yeah, sure, double standards and all that, I get it. But her inability to be a brazen whore doesn't really tug at the heart string.

I like the actress, she's pretty, and does a good job. Her character, however, is written to be extremely passive out of some fear of making her controversial in any way, so she does very little on the show despite ostensibly being the protagonist.

She has mentioned her parents are some sort of hippie homeopathic Christian hybrids and spent lots of time in wacky outdoor churches, talking about communing with the dead and some other shit. For reference, she has a sibling who is ALSO "they/them". What are the chances of that, hmm?

In short, blame her parents.

Neither Alicent nor Rhaenyra are meant to be sympathetic in the Fire & Blood book, the Dance in general is a terrible conflict between terrible people. There's occasional honorable characters involved but the leaders are all scummy nobles by and large, who trash the kingdom in their squabbles and all they accomplish in the process is weakening their own houses.

Someone in the writing room has a bizarre attachment to the two as "friends" or unrequited lovers or something, their friendship ended a long time ago in both the book AND show, it's dumb to keep trying to hang onto it, to the detriment of both characters.

Oh man don't remind me of this shitshow. Thoroughly analyzing exactly what/how/why it went wrong would unironically take hours of discussion because all the issues are tangled and nested together. It's best to just call it a complete narrative shitshow created by two mediocre writers clearly biting off a lot more than they can chew, and having an agenda that goes against the source material.

Hollyhack writers LOVE doing this, they love taking supposedly antagonistic characters and let them say something 100% true, but then deliberately have them also do/say something nonsensically evil or mean afterwards so the audience discards their statements completely.

Best example is Vaemond in S01E07. He's completely right but then the show decides to invent the part where he loudly screams that the girlboss protagonist is A WHOOOOOOOOOORE which to a modern audience basically means "feel free to kill me and ignore me, I deserve it." Same with the Black council calling out Rhaenyra, the writers make sure to follow it up with "we hate women btw" and granny Rhaenys telling the audience that's misogyny.

I like the cast minus Alicentโ€™s actress for some reason. But they shouldnโ€™t have made this show for another ten or fifteen years if the budget is this strained and so much will have to be skipped & reused

I do not understand the Velaryons in the show.

Not only are Rhaenyra and Daemon the main suspects in the murder of their son Laenor (in fact they WANTED to be considered the main suspects, to scare their enemies) - not only did their daughter Laena die in Essos with Daemon even though she wanted to come back home - not only did Daemon behead Corlys' brother for basically telling the truth - not only did Rhaenyra marry her son with the idea of having his children but then proceeded to cuckold him - not only is Rhaenyra trying to supplant house Velaryons from the male side by making Strongs the head of the house - but now Rhaenyra has sent Rhaenys to die at Rook's Rest when she could've gone herself, could've accompanied Rhaenys alongside with Jace, etc.

How have they ever supported Rhaenyra? Why is Corlys hyping up the people who killed his son (to his knowedge), his brother and cucked his bloodline? At this point he should be really, really disillusioned with her. He should be on the brink of defection, really. Is their role in the show to just be the designated token Rhaenyra simps?

She's a lovely looking woman and she acts the part but the show makes her very boring and noncommittal. She doesn't have the nonsensical hard shifts Alicent has (where I straight up have no idea what she wants or doesn't want), but they seem afraid to have her properly partake in the nastiness of the civil war, but there's nothing BUT nastiness, it's a family based civil war.

the dumbest part being it was a completely logical plot in the book
>Boltons have been given command of the North by the Lannisters but they still lack legitimacy given they got it by betraying the Starks
>To manufacture some claim to Winterfell, the Lannisters and Boltons make up a fake "Arya Stark" from captive minor noble Jeyne Poole (the real Arya being long MIA and assumed dead), and have the kowtowed Theon formally recognize her as legitimate for the marriage to Ramsay
>Theon eventually breaks free of conditioning and rescues Jeyne
Not only logical, but features some of GRRM's best writing in A Dance With Dragons. There's a lot of raw emotion captured in Theon's chapters.

All out the window in the TV show. Now it makes no fuckin sense from any perspective (as you noted, she's wanted for regicide!) and furthermore, winds up driving the entire rest of Sansa's story on the show.

Watching how the show treats some characters and their decisions feels like being gaslit.
>AEGON YOU IDIOT HOW COULD YOU APPOINT CRISTON AS HAND OMG
>Criston turns out to be a competent wartime Hand who at the very least accomplishes more than Otto's letters to the Vale/North/Riverlands which all flop
>CRISTON YOU MORON HOW COULD YOU SEND ASSASSINS TO KILL RHAENYRA THIS IS DUMBER THAN A PRANK
>the plan nearly works and only falls apart at the last second due to sheer dumb luck, also Otto wanted to do exactly the same 3 episodes ago but now somehow it's a bad idea
>AEGON/AEMOND/COLE YOU STUPID WARMONGERING MEN WHY ARE YOU PREPARING FOR WAR THIS IS A BAD IDEA
>5 minutes later it turns out their initial instincts were 100% right, going into the field to gain ground is the right move
>NO DAEMON WHY DO YOU WANT TO GO TO HARRENHAL AND RAISE ARMIES IN MY NAME ARE YOU JEALOUS??
>turns out Harrenhal is in fact vital for the war effort and Daemon gathering levies there ends up being crucial for the war

But time and time again the story and the writers want you to think these characters are stupid, while the hollowheads like Rhaenys or indecisive spoiled women like Rhaenyra/Alicent are in the right simply because they're women and don't want to spill blood. There isn't any narrative coherence to this story anymore beside the writers groveling for Rhaenys/Rhaenyra, and "liberating" Alicent (by having her condemn her entire family to death just so she can be friends with Rhae Rhae again)

Vaemond at least made sense, it was set up as something he'd been holding in for years and barely contained thanks to his reckless anger, see end of ep.3 and the speech at his niece's funeral, and then being told to just accept it. It was more of a final fuck you than anything else at that point.

The show initially tried to completely nuke Aegon II's claim and personality, pretending that only the King's word matters and the king's son is a sleazy Malfoy child rapist. While also making Rhaenyra a chosen-by-the-gods saint who's only campaigning for queen out of a burden.
After all that it's a bit funny that even normies are sick of Rhaenyra's shit because of how badly she's written and how the narrative warps itself around doing so, but the Aegon II actor ended up being so convincing that normies have come around to him.

Monke was kino. Actually had flaws which drove events forward and was just a more compelling character.
Then itโ€™s like the writers said โ€œoh wait, letโ€™s erase all that and make her perfect and virtuous and bland and boring and the true fated queenโ€ and then she just sits around scowling about evil men for an entire season.
They really made the good side incredibly boring. The evil side is at least somewhat entertaining.

huh? it was fairly well known in the book

it could've been a court secret if it just stayed a rumor, but Viserys & Rhaenyra massively fanned the flames of the rumor when they executed Vaemond & his kin for speaking up about it

harkens back to GRRM's "when you cut a man's tongue out you're not proving him a liar, you're proving that you feared what he might have to say" idea

That said, the logistics make no sense in HotD, the roads are still fine as the full on war didn't break out in earnest. There is no reason for naval blockade to effect anything other than luxury goods and traders ability to do their job. Crops and livestock should be able to arrive just fine.
Guess the plebs in KL really wanted that Myrish lace.

If Rhaenyra wasnโ€™t Emma Dโ€™Arcy the show would have had half its viewers and been canceled after one season. People tune in to see whether Emma/Rhaenyra won the war yet. Aegon scenes are nothing but unwelcome interludes. Aemond is the only interesting Green but heโ€™s only on a tv show to begin with because of Rhaenyra.

Nah. You're trying to assign to something that is clearly an authorial oversight. The Dance is just badly written. GRRM wanted Westerosi to all hate bastards and hate women in order to create difficult obstacles for Rhaenyra, but he also needed to create a war so he decided half of Westeros just doesn't care.
The Riverlanders infinitely respawning despite being burned down to ashes thrice is another example of this, it's not some interesting commentary by GRRM on the resilience of people it's just bad writing because he needed to wrap up the war.

There's a difference between carrying the show and being normie bait. Rhaenyra is normie bait, she's essentially a Daenerys stand-in for them. But in terms of storytelling Rhaenyra was a big disappointment in S2 and all her biggest fans would tell you this.
>Aemond is the only interesting Green
He had the potential to be but he ended up being kinda shit. The writers essentially offscreened his descent into evil and decided Alicent saying "Aemond is evil" is good enough, he just kinda stands around and "projects aura" as the kids would say it. He had like 15 minutes in S2. Which is nuts, I don't know how the writers managed to take a crazy edgelord acted by such an eccentric guy into such a boring character.

i get what you mean but the mistake you're making is that you're "carrying the show" with "bringing casual viewers to the table" - and while you are correct right now, years down the line when the show is done airing, the definition will shift and "carrying the show" will mean who is the most interesting character whose presence made episodes better

to demonstrate what i mean, Dany carried GOT while it was airing, because casual viewers adored Dany and watched for her. however when viewership and advertising was no longer a factor and you just watched the show retroactively to see whether it's narratively sound, you realized it wasn't her that carried the show but characters such as Tywin and Tyrion and Jorah

These not memorable. You remember it because you fag. Normal people don't see anything special in it (writing or acting).

Memorable scene - Viserys walks into the room or toast about Strong Boys. One shot and you already know what kind of show it is.

Even that scene >>212930420 more memorable than anything Aegon has done. Main character can be boring, but not the "evil side".

Showrunners should give as much time as possible to Aemond. If they don't do it, no one will watch their shit show.

The show fully bought into 3rd wave feminism and made the mistake of thinking it's the way real people feel, not realizing it's just a few very loud Twitter femcels who write wattpad fanfiction about lesbian situationships. That's why the writers expected you to approve of Alicent's turn in S02E08, they assumed you root for the feminist girlboss faction so naturally you should be happy that Alicent signed the death warrant of her entire family to join them. It probably took until the audience reception to S2 for the writers to realize they inadvertedly make all the worst stereotypes about why women are untrusthy during wartime completely true.
>>212931849
>Rhaenyra is literally the one hard carrying the whole thing idiot, nobody cares about Aegon
That was the fandom consensus after S1 for sure but it has definitely shifted. I've talked to a lot of fans on twitter, reddit, tumblr, tiktok and so on and the consensus is that Rhaenyra was let down by the writing like most characters, while the Greens primarily Aegon were the much more interesting side.

That was before S2 aired. I am telling you, you don't get how much S2 changed the fans' perception of things.
I'm retarded with search engines so I couldn't find a better thread, but here's the main HOTD subreddit thread after S2 discussing who was the best one, this is the most normie place on reddit regarding HOTD and it's moderated by HBO shills: https://www.reddit.com/r/HouseOfTheDragon/comments/1eols5q/who_was_your_favourite_character_in_this_season/
Notice that you have to dig very deep to find Rhaenyra as an answer. Most people say Aegon or Aemond, some day Daemon. Some really like the new characters like Gwayne or Simon Strong. But people are generally not satisfied with how Rhaenyra was written in S2 and thought she was sanded down and dithered way too much.

Aemond is a sapphire-eyed eyepatch wearing school schooter lunatic with a giant dragon and unpredictable violent behavior. I guess that's an appealing idea to people even if the way he's written is lacking.

I don't know how to tell you. But people on reddit are like 0.1% of viewers.

People disappointed with the show and characters, but the thing is, they didn't stop loving Rhaenyra, Daemon or Rhaenys. When they truly stop, they just won't watch.

>Rhaenyra is literally the one hard carrying the whole thing idiot, nobody cares about Aegon
i dont let my impression of a story get governed by what some phonewatching 65 IQ twitter troglodyte thinks of it

Aegon is the least shitty major character on this show right now from a storytelling perspective, he's one of the only characters that actually feels like a real character with human reactions to things instead of an NPC stuck in a plot-mandated dialogue loop. when he gets up and decides to go into battle alone despite it being a terrible idea, it feels like such a breath of fresh air compared to how almost every other character is just stuck doing nothing. his reaction to losing a child was also literally the only believable reaction to losing a child in the entire show so far.

if you think the way Rhaenyra was written in s2 was acceptable then you're one of those twitter retards too. she was great in early S1 and had promise at the start of S2 but she's been lobotomized in order to drag out the story and neutered heavily. where is the "war in her eyes" from the end of the S1 finale? hope you clapped when she started making out with Mysaria or said what would you have me do for the 8th time in a row even though her advisors are begging her to do something already

they do, it's just you deciding to conflate it for the sake of argument because you're on the back pedal. nobody disputes that normies love Rhaenyra more than Aegon, but they did find her less interesting in s2. at least you're finally admitting even normies hated how s2 ruined Rhaenyra.

Objectively, way more people love Aegon after season 2 than before, and way less people love rhaenyra than before. Those are just the facts. Aegon was written as super unlikable and this inadvertently made him likable. Rhaenyra was written as super likable which made her inadvertently unlikable

You try to make it seem like there is difference, but there really isn't. Rhaenyra and Rhaenys had the same immediate reaction. Seethes. Then they let it go. Shit writing but oh well.

Aegon was in the brothel drunk the next day, careless about things. You suck motivation and behavior for him that is not transmitted.

I agree that Aegon better written in s2, but he's not character "for root" or even just interesting. It's just low bar that gives him points.

Her biggest problem is that she spent 75% of the season complaining that nobody respects her and how she's losing the war.
Aegon did the same thing for the first half of the season but at least it eventually went somewhere after Alicent gave him a reality check.
>nobody has any reason to respect you
Rhaenyra basically starts and ends the season in the same place.

She got dragons at the end I guess.

Rhaenyra's problem in season 2 that not enough grief for Prince Lucerys. Comical when the audience cares about him more than his fictional mother. And friendship with Alicent. Also, her screen time should be cut in half.

I am so fucking tired of seeing the girlboss archetype in modern television.
Rhaenys is by far the worst example of it in recent history. A self-important haughty unpleasant woman that rarely does anything right, yet the narrative expects us to believe she's always badass and right. She's a ballbuster who just sends smug boorish "clapbacks" to everyone around her and we're supposed to pretend it's fukken epic because it slots neatly into the trite gender essentialist bullshit the show operates by.
The moment modern television stops with this shit, we'll stop mentioning it.

I was honestly laughing my ass off during Uncle Velaryon's speech in episode 8. These children are so obviously not black and not members of house Velaryon, it was a classic emperor has no clothes scenario. Uncle V almost couldn't get through his own speech without laughing at the absurdity of it all.

Again this is all the fault of that fuck condal who just had to make the Velaryons black because he didnโ€™t like all the whites in the old show. But at least heโ€™s honest and said that it was done solely for DEI purposes and doesnโ€™t try to make up bullshit justifications like his fellow progressive fags so kudos to him for honesty.

>lobotomized in order to drag out the story
I feel like this greatly affected to the Blacks (partly the Greens but not as much) - there was way too much artificially created discord and disagreement within each camp when it comes to using dragons. When you really look at the dragon power of the two sides, the Blacks should crush the Greens very easily.

Tessarion is a small-ish dragon that's never been in a fight and Dareon is barely a teen. Dreamfyre doesn't have a rider. Sunfyre can fight but he's not really bigger than any of the opposing dragons and Aegon is a drunk driver. So really only Aemond on Vhagar is a real threat.
On the other hand you have Daemon on Caraxes, Rhaenys on Meleys, Rhaenyra on Syrax, Jace on Vermax, Baela on Moondancer. This is a much more serious group, just Caraxes + Meleys together would be enough to wreck Vhagar and then the Greens don't really have any heavy hitters to defend themselves.

And I feel like the writers kinda know this, that the Blacks as a united front could end the Dance in 5 mins through dragon superiority. So they contrived a lot of bullshit to avoid dragon usage in S2. The Daemon getting jealous and abandoning camp subplot felt like it was forced just to remove his dragon from the equation for now.

to be fair that's a problem with the source material not the show writers, they dance is filled with convenience and plot driving shit just to justify the ending of the dragons.

that was at the start of s2. now at the start of s3 i think if even the dumbest normalfag thinks about the dragon count it'll seem completely confusing why the Blacks aren't just charging directly into dragon combat, they massively outnumber the Green dragons i think it's 8 vs 2 (3 if you count Dreamfyre but you shouldn't)

Yes but the changes of HOTD just often make no sense.
In the book it was Viserys who insisted Aegon must marry Halaena. Why? So the Greens don't get a change to make marriage pacts with other powerful houses, so their power doesn't grow too much. This makes the Greens mad not just because it deprives them of the chance to make alliances, but because once Rhaenyra comes into power then Aegon & Halaena will essentially inherit nothing at all. The king's firstborn son will have 0 inheritance.
In the show however it's actually Alicent that marries Aegon to Heleaena. Why? Why do the Greens self-sabotage so dramatically? Fuck knows. The show is full of changes like this that make 0 sense within the setting.

Very true, I felt the same way. Youngnyra is a character, Oldnyra is a good twoshoes cardboard cutout; she had one moment where she was interesting in S1E10 when the news of Luke's death is delivered and she looks ready to kill every Green with her bare hands, but then the hack writers have her be perfectly reasonable in the very next episode. It's a shame, because D'Arcy is obviously a very able actress and looks pretty in her wardrobe.
