![Time For A New Heir! | HOUSE OF THE DRAGON [1x1] (REACTION)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0pEgErKXcFY/mqdefault.jpg)
Caraxes, the Bloodwyrm, is a unique beastie. Longer and more snake-like than other dragons, with a unique high-pitched voice, and a temperament much like that of his rider. It is said that Caraxes sings love songs to Syrax when they are together.
That’s so sweet ❤
@@jubilantsleep I thought so, too.
Baratheons are supposed to be related to the Targaryens to begin with. The founder of the house, Orys Baratheon, is rumored to be Aegon the conqueror's bastard brother.
The Baratheon's are distant cousins to the Targaryens through Orys and also more recently through the female line via Alyssa Velaryon - wife to both Aenys I Targaryen and later to Rogar Baratheon. But Princess Rhenys' mother was actually a Baratheon, so it's even closer for her (Alyssa was _both_ her maternal grandmother and her paternal great-grandmother. Gotta love the Targaryens). The Baratheon knight who Rhenys called cousin was her maternal 1st cousin (In the book Boremund was actually her Uncle - I think they changed it to make the ages of the actors make a bit more sense - Rhaenys is theoretically about 30-35 at this point, but Eve Best looks older).
@@LE-hq6ej So basically Robert Baratheon actually had royal blood to begin with when he staged his rebellion?
My two cents, Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen ftw! Love him as an actor, and he delivers this complex character exceptionally well. He and Paddy Considine are extraordinary.
I think it was a weird choice only being a few episodes in, but I know he’s a fantastic actor so I’m definitely looking forward to seeing him progress throughout the series.
My favorite actors. They stole season 1 with their acting and their relationship is complex as hell but the most realistic imo.
When she said "A guy that played Doctor Who" my immediate thought was "wait, its the son of the guy who played Doctor Who" (David Tennant's son is the teenage Aegon II) until Smith appeared and I felt like a fool.
He’s got that perfect blend of elvish good looks and just a little inbred
@@funnylilgalreacts I thought the same thing but honestly, having read the book, he absolutely nails and gets the character.
The words: "They're going to bring the babe out now," will instill a sense of dread in me for the rest of my goddamn life.
for some extra context on the opening scene. King Jaehaerys I was the grandson of Aegon the Conqueror and he had 13 children with his sister-wife, Alysanne. Of those 13, only 9 made it to adulthood and Jaehaerys outlived 7 of those 9. Here's a rundown of the kids.
Aegon - born premature and died
Daenerys - died of a fever as a toddler
Aemon - married his half-aunt, Lady Jocelyn Baratheon, and had Rhaenys
Baelon - married his sister, Alyssa, and had Viserys, Daemon and Aegon
Alyssa - married her brother, Baelon, and died in childbirth with her third son, Aegon, who died soon after
Maegelle - became a Septa and then died of greyscale
Vaegon - became an Archmaester and outlived his dad
Daella - married Lord Rodrik Arryn of the Eyrie and died giving birth to Aemma Arryn (Rhaenyra's mother)
Saera - ran off to Essos and became a prostitute, outlived her dad
Viserra - was betrothed to an old man and tried to seduce her brother, Baelon, to get out of it and ended up dying in a drunken horse riding accident
Gaemon - died in the cradle
Valerion - died in the cradle
Gael - drowned herself after her bastard son was stillborn
Jaehaerys was a great king but a really crappy dad
Well, at least Jaehaerys I was an outstanding King. Not everyone is cut out for parenthood. He was a good husband and (for that time/place) gave his wife a lot of latitude; they had a good royal partnership for years until they quarreled over his treatment of one of their daughters (forget which one).
Daemon wasn't just guessing; he was known as the "Prince of Flea Bottom" for a reason, and his City Watch consisted of people who had quite a bit of knowledge of what went on there. Maybe some were wrong, but I don't get the impression that he'd really do that there, it wasn't his intention. Also of note is that it was he who first gave them gold cloaks, a tradition they've retained almost 200 years later, giving them the eponymous nickname of "Gold Cloaks".
I mean, Daemon is noted that, alongside being Prince of Flea Bottom, that he had an immense enjoyment of dismemberment. That was fun for him, and any mistakes made would just send the real culprits running scared, so I doubt he fine combed the investigations.
The Baratheons have at least 3 links to the Targaryens - the founder of the house, Orys (rumoured Targ bastard), Rhaenys' mother Jocelyn Baratheon, and Robert's grandmother (the reason his was the claim put forward by the Baratheon/Stark/Arryn/Tully and eventual Lannister alliance which deposed the Mad King).
I love this show- They really delivered on this one. Many people didnt have high expectations after GoT season 8 but this show really feels like peek GoT. So exited for season 2
Rhaenys' mother was a Baratheon so she herself is half Baratheon hence the cousin comment.The current Lord of Storm's End is her uncle and his son is Rhaenys' first cousin.
The birth scene was hard to watch. I understand that his only choices were to try to save the baby or let them both die, but I wish they would have told her before they just start cutting into her.
Welcome back to Westeros.
I know that faced with such a situation, the final decision would have been my wife's if at all possible (the exception being if she were in an unconscious state and couldn't be roused enough to make that determination). That being said I believe it was a deliberate choice for the show not to tell her to a.) highlight that even as much as he loved his wife, it's still a very patriarchal society, b.) foreshadow the coming struggle for Rhaenyra in the face of that patriarchy and c.) make commentary on the very real consequences in our modern society from multiple regressive legislative efforts succeeding in further reducing or denying women's bodily autonomy.
Daemon is that one brother of yours you just can’t fully hate no matter what they do 😂
"That feels like a weird relationship"
Me:
Matt Smith played a few roles but the notable ones are:
- The Doctor (from Doctor Who)
- Prince Philip (from The Crown)
I don't know if I'd call it notable but as a mention he also portrayed the antagonist in Morbius.
He also played Skynet in Terminator Genesys.
Daemon Targaryen is certainly one of the best characters in the entire universe of Got. He is the favorite Targaryen of the author of the book G. G. Martin, and Matt Smith performed him perfectly. (For centuries, House Targaryen has produced both great men and monsters. Prince Daemon was both. In his day, there was no man in all of Westeros who was so admired, so loved, and so reviled. He was made of light and darkness in equal parts. For some he was a hero, for others he was the blackest of villains") From the book
Stop being a psycho fan and writing spoilers
@@sillylittlesheepjax6009 is someone is truly psycho that's aemond and the aegon 2..
Go get a life u ... delusional being
@@sillylittlesheepjax6009 what spoilers lol? This is not a spoiler
@@sillylittlesheepjax6009 There is no spoilers spotted dumbo
I usually don't watch reaction videos but yours are just amazingly edited in comparison. It's just the right mix between jumping from scene to scene and having a scene being played out which isn't always easy to do especially with TH-cams's draconian copyright laws. I am a huge simp for House of the Dragon so that you are reacting to it makes some of my evenings less boring for sure!
Thank you! That's what I was going for when editing!
Isn't every time we hear dracarys a funeral? 😆
I mean…. You are not wrong 😂
Rhaenys' mother was a Baratheon. (Lady Jocelyn) that's why she called him cousin.
You're going to have so much to say as you continue down this path and I'm here for all of it. Loved your Arcane reactions! Can't wait for S2 of both of these shows!
I got into this show when the 5th episode had aired, because like you, GoT took an emotional toll on me too so I got to binge all 5 episodes. "172 years before Daenerys Targaryen", that got me emotional too. My queen, forever in my heart. Regarding this episode, I remember seeing the first 15 seconds of that scene with Daemon and Rhaenyra in the throne room and he just mesmerized me. I was like, okay, i love him lol. Both him and Rhaenyra are amazing characters, and so is king viserys.
I did not get a warm feeling about Daemon this episode. I don’t hate him, I find him intriguing. Rhaenyra I loved immediately.
OMG!!!! One of my favorite reactors is watching one of my FAVORITE shows!!!! I literally screamed with happiness when I saw this pop up on my youtube page!!! So excited!!!
Let's Gooooooooo!!!!!!! They saved the franchise with this one. The Dance of Dragons is my favorite of the SOIAF stories.
It didn't need saving. Game of Thrones is still one of the most watched showed even as of late last year and was the most pirated show last year too.
@@suddenimpulse030 those stats dont save season 8 tho. so i dont know what you are trying to say here...
saved it by having george rr martin as an executive producer and using his books yeah
@@SETHthegodofchaos Season 8 was fine, it just didn't end with Dany being canonized as a saint the way her worshippers wanted. It could've been better and worse. HOTD was amazing but it wasn't needed to "save" anything.
@@jthomann71 yeah, those damn dany worshippers. ruining season 8 for everybody.
Hi Angela, I hope you had a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!🙂🙂🦃🦃I'm glad to see you starting a series I have watched!😀This is a great series to react to. The names in this series definitely get super confusing, being so similar. I think most people have difficulties with them. Matt Smith is definitely one of the most popular modern Doctor Who's.
Don’t know how I missed this! Gonna binge these because season 2 is SO good so far 🔥
Glad to see you react to this, awesome review 🤠
New viewer here, and I love your reaction style! Hearing your thoughts before and after is quite reassuring as viewer, let's us know that you're thoughtful and make an effort to critically engage with the content. Anyways, great reaction, I'll be here for your HoTD journey :)
So glad you're doing this show!
Ay hell ya I’m glad you’re doing this, great season. Caraxes is awesome
If you are not up on the history and Lore of the GoT books the one thing you learn is that many of these houses are related. They never mention it in the show GoT is that House Baratheon and House Targaryen are closely related. The books tend to go into why there is so much animosity between the houses. Mostly it is family feuds of direct bloodlines or married in family. The real life mirror are the royal families of Europe and how closely related they are.
I am not! I depend on all of you to help me with that!
I know I'm going to love your reactions to this series.💜
PSA, Milly Alcock (Rhaenyra) is phenomenal in good australian tv show Upright (it is written by Tim Minchin, he also plays lead character)
Yours was the reaction that finally kicked me in the butt and got me to watch HotD episodes 1-5... now I can watch this video lol
Get ready for an outstanding trip. This show is TOP NOTCH !!
24:28
Daemon did not decide, nor did he want the job.
Otto mentioned that Daemon had been assigned other duties a few times, and had performed them to the extreme.
Daemon does not like, or trust Otto, as you have seen in this episode. Daemon wants to be the King's Hand, not the king.
Daemon was sent to repair and train the City Watch, per Otto's advisement to the king, as they were underperforming in their duties to secure the city.
It had the added bonus to Otto of removing Daemon from the king's ear.
Daemon went and did as Daemon does.
Trained them up, gave them a new name and cloak, and went on a spree of criminal punishing that would be remembered for a long time.
He did have the safety of the tournament attendees, lords and ladies from all over the realm, to worry about.
Daemon is direct and brutal, often impulsive, but never, ever, doubt his love for his family.
Oooooh you are in for a wild ride with this one 😁
"Cauterize? We're not going to have to watch that?" LoL!!!
Great reaction, Angela! I'll definitely be following your progress through this series. One thing though, since you didn't show (or later comment about) the part where Viserys shows Rhaenyra the dagger, Catspaw, and talks about the significance of it, I'm guessing that maybe you *didn't* make the connection to Arya's Valyrian steel dagger?
Funnylilgalreacts Love these videos!
So glad to see you starting this. It is a *ride*. And as for Viserys cutting himself in the Throne, it is rumoured that the Throne only cuts the unworthy 😏
Loved the reaction. I’m excited for your journey with this! BTW they nickname Daemon’s dragon “The Blood Worm 🪱 “ because of its neck and color. So cool!
It’s stunning!
@@funnylilgalreacts it's called the Blood Wyrm and I love Caraxes. He's my noodle boi
@@Tsukiakari-qb3tk “danger noodle” was being thrown around quite a bit and I adore it.
@@funnylilgalreacts it is a very true description
Wait till she sees Vahgar. That's one big honking 🐉
Re: the Red keep set, most of it IS actually there. They built a large practical set for most of the Keep scenes, as well as som other central locations.
First of all , Loved your reaction.
17:18 You've misread Daemon here. They show us how Daemon feels about his brother and niece blatantly in the funeral scene. Re-watch it of possible. If he didn't care he'd be like *YAWN , whatever* but it's very much opposite to that. Also when he's listening to the council in stealth , his smile says "Yeah, my brother knows me" when Viserys says Daemon doesn't want the throne.
He wants to be by Viserys' side but Otto will not allow it at any cost, you'll see why later.
Also you yourself saw that Daemon was not into it in the brothel, he was sitting by himself all moody. There's a reason why they show OTTO repeating Daemon's toast , probably in a way he likes, to split the brothers up.
Daemon's viscious but also defends people he cares about. He acts douchy sometimes but loves his family.
Me, watching this reaction: Oh yay, we're doing this!!
Also me, after half an hour: Oh you sweet summer child, Angela.
See you next week!!
Did you know that the actor who played Jaime Lannister plays one of the kings guard in this episode?
So, we have established that the male and female "battlefields" are equally gruesome!
Nobility in medieval settings is partly an accurate description of relations - probably not first cousins but with marriage alliances as a thing, if you go back far enough you've probably got a shared ancestor. However it's also more or less a formality, especially for nobility within the same realm, to treat each other as distant family presided over by the monarch, who is in a ceremonial sense father to the whole realm.
Oh boy! I really liked season 1 of this show, can't wait to hear your thoughts!
Great reaction, it feel so genuinely..I loved. 🇧🇷
Finally Angela been waiting for this for a long time but here it is!!!
Otto Hightower, Rhaenrya's biggest supporter in the small council. Salute to this man for suggesting Rhaenyra be made the king's heir, breaking all traditions! We love an ally 🥲.
I completely agree that these shows need unknown or lesser know actors.... that is why im hoping the gossip surrounding adding Henry civil- superman and Elizabeth Olsen are not true for season 2...
HOLY SHIT I DID NOT KNOW YOU HAD REACTED TO THESE
I'm excited for your reactions for House of Dragons in the same way I was when you reacted to Peacemaker, and The Boys!
#houseblack💯🌚💯
It's astounding how this show can make you feel completely different at the end, about characters you liked/hated at the beginning of the series
Princess Rhaenys Targaryen's mother was a Baratheon, so she's a cousin to them.
To see someone who loves game
Of thrones like I do is wonderful. Will be following
Yessssss, thank youu
I cannot wait for your reactions to this series. You're off to a great start. Buckle up.
Very happy to see you react to this show. I feel it is as good as the first seasons of GOT
The unknown commonborn Criston Cole, unseats the Prince himself, then audaciously walks up to the princess to ask for her wreath, which she gladly indulges him, her best friend giggling beside her. Such an insignificant thing in the middle of all this tragic and impactful events : the wife and the heir's death, a new heir, a rogue prince. And yet...here it all begins.
Daemon playing mind games with the Princess and her friend after he knocks her friends brother into the dust.
I think you must understand that Deamon probably has dozens of informants providing him info, in fact he's so popular in the lower end of the city that brothels will usually set aside their most beautiful girls for him
Another great reaction. Uncle Daemob and his niece Princess Rhaenyra, who’d ever think of such? Oh yea it’s Westeros. You have pronounced Rhaenyra’s name perfectly the first time each time you’ve said it. (Ray-Near-Uh)
You reacted the same way that every other reactor did with the choice of the c-section. The choice was never to save the child OR the mom, the choice was to save the child OR lose them both. Mom was going to die anyway
I appreciate this reaction. Yes, like I, it will take time to learn. We have time like the seasons and since we have more seasons we will have more time!!!! How you like them dragons!!! 🤗 🐲
P.S. I need another HotD reaction!!!
(Some history and lore about Dorne). Did you know Dorne is the only realm out of the seven that is ruled by the firstborn Martell child regardless of gender since Nymeria (since thousands of years ago)? Also, they Dornish were never conquered by the Targaryens? In fact, by this time they still remain independent, "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken", and they will for some decades more. Some Targaryen conquered Dorne for a few months (and he had a happy ending) but they officially became part of the Seven Kingdoms when they wanted and on their terms. They kept their royal title and, for instance, tax raising autonomy.
Matt Smith was absolutely fantastic as The Eleventh Doctor in Doctor Who he's my second favourite after Christopher Eccleston
Yaaaay finally!
So glad you're watching this!
Rhys Ifans was also in "The Replacements" with Keanu Reeves. Fun movie if ya haven't seen it.
I never knew that was him till this video. That’s nuts! And amazing spider man as she said. I was like “wow!”
Am I the only one who, on seeing Matt Smith as Prince Daemon, couldn't help but think Elric of Melniboné? 🤔
It's about time
Character names in this show are the equivalent of house names in the original GOT when it comes to what people need to get used to. It doesn‘t help that the Targaryan‘s seem to have a very limited name pool and they all sound similar and some get used often.
Angela : "Cole is cute......"
Ooof....
They are the original Gold Cloaks the City Watch
The kid gloves were off from the very start lol
The good Ole 'Lose one or lose them both' that always causes the Viserys hatred in these reactions. Smh. I look forward to the future videos 🤣🤣
I definitely don’t hate him, I do hate the choice and his desperation for a male heir.
@@funnylilgalreacts would you have preferred no attempt be made?
@@funnylilgalreacts We understand the bad situation. But wasn’t quite clear from you and some is whether you understand he was told do that one they both die. He didn’t just chose baby over wife is what this other person is trying to say.
IT's awesome that you will react to this show.
You're in for a ride (no pun intended) Angela. Much like a lot of people here, I was a bit worried after the umm...not so stellar season 8 of GoT. Fortunately, they pressed all the right buttons.
Can't wait to see your reactions for the rest.
This Show truly restore my Faith in Game of thrones!
Oh good choice this is a great show
That’s crazy that Jon Snow’s “Traitor” moment brought you to TH-cam. What a haunting scene lol
Taking all bets on how many times she cries this season! lol
👀
not so many
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES 😭😭😭🖤
Notice they didn't show Daemon actually saying "heir for a day" 👀
👀
I think he said it
@@user-df8lp9zq8s in the books it's in doubt whether he did. So the show didn't show it. Respecting source material. Also with how fiercely loyal daemon is and how scheming Otto is, I don't believe he did.
No, Otto was lying and manipulating Viserys. He was down in the dumps, and was hurting in the funeral. He wasn't even going to give a speech until Myseria prodded him.
I love they didn’t show it. He is the type to say it and even says we must all mourn in our own way maybe he did but just his way of half joking and half sad about it. But he is also the type to not deny it even if he didn’t cause he would feel he shouldn’t have to deny it.
Daemon’s dragon is fantastic looking lithe as a snake gorgeous
Daemon. The Rogue Prince.
What I really like about these shows is that they illustrate that women can be absolutely horrible rulers too. The worst things done to the little people is done by women.
It was very properly displayed by Cersi Lannister that women can be horrible humans. Not sure why that’s relevant on this reaction as I haven’t seen the whole season…. But I call that shit out on everyone. So I guess stay tuned
"The worst things done to the little people is done by women." You CLEARLY haven't read the books these shows are based on if that is your takeaway.
@@suddenimpulse030 no I haven’t read the books.
@@funnylilgalreactsThe comment was responding to the original first comment above. lol
Did you have the best Thanksgiving yesterday, Angela? I love you as a friend
i only wish I could have seen you react to the OG GOT.
I admit that it was unexpected for me that you reacted to House Of The Dragon, I already watched the whole series; from me there will be no spoilers but I assure you that epic episodes will come than the first, there is no first without a second, so I will look forward to the next episode, kisses :)
Nice. 👌
The Targaryens always burned their bodies and the bodies of dying relatives.
New sub now 🖤❤️
HoTD pulled me back in after GoT
❤️❤️❤️
You are in for an amazing ride. These opinions you have of certain characters are going to change multiple times before the end. This season is easily as good as almost any season of Game of Thrones.
Angela, Angela, Angela…you made my day 😊 - thank you for entertaining us. Hope you are starting to get some roi with our likes.
8:45 Randomly pointing at someone and screaming "Raper" isn't a sound basis for conviction. The goal of the event was to instill terror into the populace not round up actual criminals.
Love your Expanse reactions and glad to see you taking on HOTD. When it comes to Targ incest this season, keep the scorecard handy!
15:46 ...oh little that she doesn't know..
