In an era full of spin offs and great failures, like Lord of The Rings series, House of the Dragon is quite interesting, even it is far from GOT quality in this first season, but still quite interesting to keep you engaged on it's whole first journey.

In my opinion the series starts slows but gets on track around episode 4-5, where the script gave me everything what I was looking for. I was not expecting another Game of Thrones, in a good way.

The cast is pretty good, enough to forget all the characters from the original series but comparing some parelelism between all the members of the houses it's even in some aspects superior.

The script is quite predictable at the beginning and not as risky as Game of Thrones, but it has really well development idea, and looks like the writers knows where to go.

So, overall great promising great season with its ups and downs, but overall great on action, grittines, gore, passion and originality keeping in mind its not easy, as Game of Thrones explored previously almost everything before.

Waiting for season 2.
