[Poll] How would you rate episode 107?

[Domeric Stark]

Good episode. I love how they're showing the intra-familial tensions, setting up for the future. And how Daemon's daughters are getting close with Rhaenyra's sons. Yes as someone mentioned the time lapses can get annoying/confusing - in original GoT you never got the sense that years of the plot had been skipped, so good to see that maybe that'll be less frequent.

The servant that Daemon attacked in the hallway.

Yes now I understand. The Laenor-consented-to-it is weird though as he seemed to be attached to his family (sister at least) and to knighthood, would you really throw everything away just to bone other men in far-off obscurity (when you are already boning them here in your current station)? Unwelcome plot development.

We get it.  Allicent is evil, wicked, mean and nasty, she is quite beautiful though, at least the actress is.  Rhaeneyra is a washed out old maid in comparison. JMHO.

To each his own - I prefer Rhaenyra's beauty to allicent's, and in the case of both actresses the casting matches their young versions extremely well, which is a credit to the casting bureau.

I think the entire season hinges on Daemon's (Matt Smith) performance, tbh sometimes I skip through the 10 minutes of childbirth soap-opera-ish scenes etc that House of the Dragon likes to focus on. I liked the framing of 'degenerate and melancholic but still has a good side' which was shown where they contrasted Daemon's decision to not cut the baby out of Laena to King Viserys' opposite decision at the start of the season.
