The internal succession tale set in the time of Taragayern supremacy is a success in every way. All thanks to the fantastic acting performance by the whole cast who are the reason for the show's success. Paddy Considine, Emma D'Arcy and Olivia Cooke are the heart and soul of this grand epic tale. Supporting cast including Rhys Ifans, Matt Smith, Steve Toussaint and Eva Best adds to the strength of its strong impressive cast. Even Emily Carey and Mily Alcock have served their part in building the initial relationship between the characters. Emily Carey makes a strong performance just before the time jump which helped the series to gain back its momentum which was lost due to some average epsiodes. Visuals is another praise worthy factor that upholds this story. Whether it is the dragons or the landscapes, everything looks beautiful. Most of the episodes are well written especially the first one which stands superior to all others and the ones in the later half which are worth it. Certian episodes that turned into one man shows will satisfy fans of certian characters as it is a delight to watch favourite characters outsmart others. The Shakespeare style finale ending adds to the tension of the viewer which will surely be fruitful in the second season.

House of Dragon is not free of cons, Starting from poor lighting in certian scenes to 2-3 average episodes the show is pulled back from being great. Mysaria's bad accent in the later half, long shot cgi evident scenes, Alock's inappropriate performance at times and time jump are other factors that became cons of the show.

In the end, a well developed good beginning to the internal succession inside Taragayern family.
