Hey Guys! Thank you so much for all of your support and for clicking on this video you guys continue to be freakin’ awesome! In case you didn’t know we lost our Outro file for this video that contained our review side of things. So here it goes! We absolutely loved the cinematography, the action and the introduction to all of the new Characters. But the one thing that truly stood out was how well they built tension using sutil anxiety inducing techniques. Absolutely amazing, loved this episode and cannot wait for Sunday!
Oh absolutely!! It was so heart-wrenching to watch what was unfolding, even though we knew it was likely not going to end well. She still had us rooting for her, yet that tension made it almost unbearable to witness the whole thing
Here's what the book Fire & Blood says about Daemon Targaryen: "In his day there was not a man so admired, so beloved, and so reviled in all Westeros. He was made of light and darkness in equal parts. To some he was a hero, to others the blackest of villains." He is George R.R. Martin's favorite Targaryen. He's called the Rogue Prince not because he's a Menace to society, but because he does what he wants. And a lot of negative things you heard about him were said by people on the council who don't want Daemon to be king because they know he'd get rid of them because he sees through their lies for the "council of leeches" they are. Several reactors really aren't understanding Daemon Targaryen and his complexities. I hope you see it with a rewatch. He loves his brother, and some of his "asshole" moments are specifically to spite Otto Hightower, who is a cunt like Daemon said. Otto literally pimped his daughter out to the king, and Daemon sees he's a snake wanting power for himself. That's why Otto doesn't want Daemon to be king, because he knows he'd be fired as Hand. Also, Daemon loves his family. Like, he really loves his family. He's only looking out for his brother and the reason why he got mad at the end is because he's choosing to side with Otto Hightower and send Daemon away. Like he said "to the Vale, to the City Watch, anywhere but by your side." Also, the show didn't show this because it was cut, but the reason why Daemon wasn't there at the Council of 101 was because he was rallying troops in support of his brother's claim. So yeah, Daemon is a lot more complex than a lot of people online have been making him out to be. I've even seen some people comparing him to Joffrey lmao, like no. Also, don't forget some of Daemon's tender moments like when he's at the orgy, he's not even participating in said orgy. He bought it out for his men, but he's not participating. I don't know if you noticed, but there's a specific shot where he's drinking in silence and you can tell he's mourning. When Daemon said "we all mourn in our own way" that was very true. I've known several people who lose a family member and they go out drinking or on a binge. It's not necessarily healthy, and Daemon is obviously not well adjusted. He had to be pressured into a speech by Mysaria, and we never specifically hear him say "Heir For A Day." Matt Smith the actor has said in interviews that Daemon loves his family and would never hurt them. And that when he supposedly said "Heir For A Day," that Daemon, in his own truthful blunt way, didn't exactly mean it in a bad way. He's just too honest, that's why the council of leeches don't want him. If you have an honest king with the capacity to mete out necessary punishment, they can't control him like they do Viserys. Sorry for the essay lol, just love me some Daemon and he's been getting way too much Hate. I've read the books so I definitely came into it picking apart some of the stuff yall missed because you didn't know to look for it, but I promise if yall rewatch this episode in your own time and look for some of the details I pointed out, you'll see what I mean.
I absolutely LOVED your comment and we agree! We liked Daemon a lot especially because of his morally grey nature. He’s going to be a fantastic character to watch and I think Matt Smith will do amazingly. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge man, here in the Channel that’s one of the main reasons why we are here. To share storytelling amongst each other. So yeah, no need to apologize for the essays. We love them! Thank you thank you! 😄
"He's been getting way too much hate" ... but I see he has many people like him too, maybe the non fans are just more vocal about the negativity on internet
@@rahmatmanurung8133 I've seen several reactions and almost all of them dislike Daemon, so yeah, he's getting a lot of hate. But I'm glad, more people really see him as what he really is.
@@Mrfailstandstil I'd say more chaotic neutral Evil implies he goes out of his way to be evil, I feel like Daemon just doesn't care if his actions are good or evil, he does good actions and bad actions but in the end he only cares if they satisfy his impulsive need of the week.
Right! The motifs throughout the episode with the melody really add to the reveal of the full composition. Love when films being motifs of themes back in a way. Obviously we only really get to experience this during sagas/franchises but it’s always such a treat for movie score fans!
Daemon speaks ill of his wife because he has an unhappy marriage, she is infertile and he cannot have children, his brother Viserys could have annulled their marriage.
Thanks for the comment!! And also for elaborating on the reasons their marriage is unhappy. Things are definitely already tense all around for everyone, and it adds an incredible layer to the story and this is just the beginning! Did you enjoy the episode??
Ohhh! Well that puts a different spin on things haha Im sending this love hate relationship with Daemon in our end. We liked him a lot but he’s also very menacing. Not knowing where exactly he stands is kinda nerve wrecking. Thank you for commenting! 😃
Daemon Targaryen is my all time favourite character from A song of Ice and Fire especially his Dragon Caraxes the Blood wyrm He's not a good character but at the same time he's not an evil character he's very morale grey but love's he's brother Viserys and Rhaenyra Rhaenyra's Dragon is called Syrax a female King Viserys only had one dragon in his life and that was Balerion the black, he only rode Balerion once and then Balerion died of old age and Viserys never took another dragon after that.
Balerion was one of the biggest dragons out there if not the biggest right? Ughh that’s amazing. I hope we get to see him at some point in live action. Through a flashback or whatever means necessary 😃 thank you for such an insightful comment!
@@OfficialMediaKnights he's was, it was said that his wings was so large it could cover a whole town in shadow. Now at the time of King Viserys rule the biggest Dragon is Vhagar she is currently the oldest living dragon and is bonded to Laena Velaryon at the moment. Vhagar was one of the three original dragons that allowed Aegon and his sister Wives to conquer westeros. Aegon with Balerion, Rheanys with Meraxes and Visenya with Vhagar. Oh dragons can be bonded to a new rider who has Velyrian blood when their old rider has died.
@@angelobrewster6293 not all Valyrians only 40 dragonlord family can bond and Targaryens last one of them... Laena bonded with Vhagar because of her mother ( Targaryen/dragon blood)
They have to take liberty because in the books just the story is told vaguely, like for example it's just told aemma died in childbirth that's all. It's written like a history book not from the characters perspective like got books.
@@OfficialMediaKnights I have not read the books just watch a shit ton of videos about lore and all. 😅 I won't spoil anything but in the books this story is being told by a maester to Rhenerya's son which probably won't be in the show because the show will be over before that. So it's not personal because the maester can only know so much. Like for example measter can tell what daemon did but he can't say what kind of a person daemon was. That is for the show to explore
Haha we definitely get that, that's awesome though! TH-cam has some amazing videos that condense lore in the best way possible. And wow that's interesting, so that's how the Maester works! Looking forward to seeing how they're gonna utilize this with the progression of the story!
@@paroxymal7688 Actually, Archmaester Gyldayn (the writer of Fire and Blood) is alive during the events of Game of Thrones and probably is a gift to Joffrey or Tommen when they became king. (By the way, this archmaester was one of the few survivors of the tragedy of Summerhall, when almost all Targaryen died in 259 d.C, the day Rhaeghar was born).
Oh wow! It’s cool to know he was still around during the events of GoT. Maybe that’s one of the things the show explores later on is how the history got passed down. Thank you so so much for the insight. You guys are awesome and knowledgeable 😃
New to your channel and subbed. Just one episode in and I’m completely invested in the storylines. The acting is fantastic and the action is amazing. I love it already!
Thank you so much for your support and Welcome! We are happy to have you here 😀We enjoyed this first episode so so much. The tone, the action, the tension building. Honestly I was very very impressed. We are happy it was a strong start!
Would love to see some kind of discussion after the reaction about what yall thought about the episode, its plot and characters! Otherwise good reacting!
Dude! Normally we always do! My computer messed up and we lost the file with our discussion unfortunately…next episode you guys will definitely have a discussion segment I promise! Thank you for your support, it means the world 😃
I really enjoy your reaction so much and the fact that you barely skip so the viewers can see what you guys think, I like that Denise always catches up with all the suspicious vibes and Ari also analyzes things well, actually both of you about what I've said and I do share some ideas with you guys when I was watching the episode. 😁
Thank you so much for your comment! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed our reaction, it means a lot to both of us 😃 what do you think of the show so far?
Something I just thought of was that even if she survived and the baby still died, Viserys was bugger either way, as Aemma said she wasn’t having anymore kids after this
Thank you so much for the love! It means the world to both of us 😄 As soon as I saw it I was like wait!! I know that dagger haha great first episode. Thank you so much for commenting. 😀
Daemon is a great fighter and honestly loves his brother and is loyal to him (Viserys is one of the very few people Daemon loves without question); but he is not suited to be king and, I believe, wanted the Iron Throne just because he expected it. Right now, the lords are declaring for Rhaenyra as the heir because they don't trust/want Daemon as the heir, and because Viserys has no other children. Some of them will change their minds pretty quickly if Viserys marries again and fathers sons - just ask Princess Rhaenys. Also, Rhaenyra is young in the show, a teenager of 14 or 15; she is not a fool but she is a spoiled and sheltered girl who doesn't care about the needs of the people or the duties and the responsibilities that come in tandem with the power of any lord, prince, or princess. (and she wasn't made her father/king's cupbearer just because she was a girl, it's a traditional responsibility given a noble child of both genders in Westeros, to accustom them to responsibility while giving them the opportunity to hear lords discuss statecraft and strategy, etc.).
Reading fire & blood is like reading the decline & fall of the roman empire, hotd was tv masterpiece. pls do also a reaction of hbo rome, if its ok. Thanks
We’re definitely taking notes on what you guys suggest so it could definitely be! We’re just waiting for slower weeks. There’s so much coming out right now 😃😄 and yeah this show is absolutely masterful. From the acting to the score and even the costume design. Every thing is being treated with the upmost attention to detail! What a way to do it
Even better! They can’t mess it up then 😂 all they gotta do is follow the original story as much as they can. With this production quality it should be a good show no doubt 😃
Theoretically, she wouldn’t need to be alive through the C section. They would just need to move quickly. Also, an unmedicated C section isn’t necessarily a death sentence. There have been women throughout history who have survived them, which is why I’m a little pissed that they didn’t have her survive xD
The parallel from rheanerya and her mother convo that said childbirth is the woman's battle in this world. For them to cut back and for between men battles and woman's battles in this time are horrible. Also, did you notice the shape of the joust arena? what is it shape
Yeah! We caught that. The parallels they made with simple cuts and dialogue were fantastic storytelling! And no, I don’t think we noticed unfortunately! What was it??
OH DUDE! NO WAY! You're right haha. You know, it's interesting, the battles fought back then were for life and death - just in different ways. The attempted cesarian was gruesome and just an impossible choice placed on parents way too frequently in those times, whether it was fiction or real life! Uff, hard to watch either way!! But great catch, definitely adds many layers to the scene!
I love your reaction, y’all deserve more views tbh! You noticed things many channels didn’t notice and I appreciate that as well. One thing a lot of people seem to misunderstand is that the king had a choice to lose both the child and the wife or attempt to save the child. It was not one or the other it was let them both die or save the child. Ultimately they both died but I think despite how brutal it was trying to save the child was the right thing to do.
Thanks so much for the comment and support, it means so much!! But what you're saying is very true - at the end of the day, it is an impossible choice and honestly, there is no real 'right' answer. Either way, it'd be a devastating loss. What irked us a little was that he never clued his wife in on what was going on - therein lay the cruelty and perhaps the fear of the gravity of his decision that was, ultimately, inevitable. That's why we love this show, it presents us with so many impossible moments that force us to question morals and ethics on multiple levels! Thanks again for the support, we love having you here!
So let's talk about, Gold cloaks were way back then, let's talk about the grey scale the King may have, let's talk Darnish guy interested in the princess.
I thought the idea of the Gold cloaks was cool! They are definitely under the radical leadership of Daemon. But I can also see the point of view of purging the town from todo criminals! The thing is where does it stop when you have that kind of power? I loved the potential of how menacing Daemon can be
Oh and reason why the writing was so good in the first 5 seasons of game of thrones is because they ran out of source material from books. Currently in he book Jon Snow is technically dead still bleeding out in the snow.
@@OfficialMediaKnights oh I forgot in the book Catelyn Stark is currently a zombie called Lady Stoneheart after what happened at the red wedding and she has Rob Stark's Crown. One of the major things the show writers decided not to include. But they make up a character called the Night King for the TV show anyway.
@@OfficialMediaKnights I didn't bother me that much, even though they left out alot of plot lines from the books, but I Don't rant and rave about it is what it is.
Yeah, exactly. What’s done is done haha This one on the other hand is a book that is completed in its totality right? So we shouldn’t see the same kind of issues when it comes to scriptwriting
I am not sure how to spell the name they use but the real-life equivalent was Court Physician and the one attending Viserys is bad it seems, his assistant was better and suggested a good idea I think for them at the time, something he should have thought of, seems very slow, and doesn't understand what he is doing with his procedure leading to a bad ending. If I were King I would have him imprisoned and replaced.
One thing I haven't seen anyone say or mention is Emma was going to die in childbirth regardless. The only choice that King Veserys had was to try to save the baby before that or let nature take it's course and they both would die.
Sorry about that!!! We have to make some hard choices when editing our videos to keep them as entertaining as possible and sometimes for the sake of time, we have to make some tough choices! We'll be sure to include Caraxes the next possible time!
The child a boy that was obvious but sadly he died aswell as his wife. Cant even imagine how much more worse it is for a woman back then especially in child birth
Don’t be so quick to judge the hand for sending his daughter to the king’s bedroom. In a medieval society the strength of your position is the only thing that can possibly keep your loved ones safe. If you don’t seek power someone else will. someone who is going to exploit or harm your family in order to strengthen their own.
Well put! To be frank, we were learning how to balance today's society's expectations and moralities vs the medieval ones. We understand why Otto did what he did - it's a ruthless game and they're all going to be playing it regardless, so pulling the punches won't get anyone what they want
Thanks so much for support and sub, we're so happy to have you here! And we love how everyone is speculating, it's always such a joy to hear different theories!
Hey Guys! Thank you so much for all of your support and for clicking on this video you guys continue to be freakin’ awesome!

the actress that played the King's wife did a great job. She made that scene hard to watch and listen to.
Oh absolutely!! It was so heart-wrenching to watch what was unfolding, even though we knew it was likely not going to end well. She still had us rooting for her, yet that tension made it almost unbearable to witness the whole thing

I love your reaction, y’all deserve more views tbh!
You noticed things many channels didn’t notice and I appreciate that as well.
One thing a lot of people seem to misunderstand is that the king had a choice to lose both the child and the wife or attempt to save the child. It was not one or the other it was let them both die or save the child. Ultimately they both died but I think despite how brutal it was trying to save the child was the right thing to do.
Thanks so much for the comment and support, it means so much!! But what you're saying is very true - at the end of the day, it is an impossible choice and honestly, there is no real 'right' answer. Either way, it'd be a devastating loss. What irked us a little was that he never clued his wife in on what was going on - therein lay the cruelty and perhaps the fear of the gravity of his decision that was, ultimately, inevitable. That's why we love this show, it presents us with so many impossible moments that force us to question morals and ethics on multiple levels!
Thanks again for the support, we love having you here!
I like your reaction videos
Loved this series. 🎉🎉🎉
So did we!
So let's talk about, Gold cloaks were way back then, let's talk about the grey scale the King may have, let's talk Darnish guy interested in the princess.
I thought the idea of the Gold cloaks was cool! They are definitely under the radical leadership of Daemon. But I can also see the point of view of purging the town from todo criminals! The thing is where does it stop when you have that kind of power? I loved the potential of how menacing Daemon can be
It’s not grey scale. The throne just doesn’t like him lol
Hahaha gotcha, of course!
Oh and reason why the writing was so good in the first 5 seasons of game of thrones is because they ran out of source material from books.
Currently in he book Jon Snow is technically dead still bleeding out in the snow.
So I’ve heard! Is George R Martin still finishing up the last books? Thank you for commenting!
@@OfficialMediaKnights oh I forgot in the book Catelyn Stark is currently a zombie called Lady Stoneheart after what happened at the red wedding and she has Rob Stark's Crown.
One of the major things the show writers decided not to include.
But they make up a character called the Night King for the TV show anyway.
How did you feel about the ending of the show? I didn’t really know how to feel specially knowing that it was technically not canon.
@@OfficialMediaKnights I didn't bother me that much, even though they left out alot of plot lines from the books, but I Don't rant and rave about it is what it is.
Yeah, exactly. What’s done is done haha This one on the other hand is a book that is completed in its totality right? So we shouldn’t see the same kind of issues when it comes to scriptwriting
@The Media Knights Pacific Rim the black is a new tv series it’s what happened after Pacific Rim Uprising
I am not sure how to spell the name they use but the real-life equivalent was Court Physician and the one attending Viserys is bad it seems, his assistant was better and suggested a good idea I think for them at the time, something he should have thought of, seems very slow, and doesn't understand what he is doing with his procedure leading to a bad ending. If I were King I would have him imprisoned and replaced.
You two are cool!
We appreciate the support! You’re Awesome! 😃
One thing I haven't seen anyone say or mention is
Emma was going to die in childbirth regardless. The only choice that King Veserys had was to try to save the baby before that or let nature take it's course and they both would die.
Have either of you watched Harry Potter?
We’ve watched all of them back in the day!
@@OfficialMediaKnights awesome. The actor that plays Otto, played Luna's dad
Wtf? U let Caraxes out..
Sorry about that!!! We have to make some hard choices when editing our videos to keep them as entertaining as possible and sometimes for the sake of time, we have to make some tough choices! We'll be sure to include Caraxes the next possible time!
@The Media Knights I have a request can you react to Pacific Rim the black if you can please and thank you
The black? We saw the movies but don’t know what the black is. New show?
@@OfficialMediaKnights yes
The child a boy that was obvious but sadly he died aswell as his wife. Cant even imagine how much more worse it is for a woman back then especially in child birth
Daemon is not even a villain and as always they don’t like daemon but like otto 😂
Who doesn’t like Daemon!?
Don’t be so quick to judge the hand for sending his daughter to the king’s bedroom. In a medieval society the strength of your position is the only thing that can possibly keep your loved ones safe. If you don’t seek power someone else will. someone who is going to exploit or harm your family in order to strengthen their own.
Well put! To be frank, we were learning how to balance today's society's expectations and moralities vs the medieval ones. We understand why Otto did what he did - it's a ruthless game and they're all going to be playing it regardless, so pulling the punches won't get anyone what they want
How is the fact that mothers give birth and that is especially important for a royal family in anyway political or controversial?
You guys should check out Game of Thrones instead of this cheap, woke knockoff.
lmao what ? whats woke about it?
@@lostwarhead I suppose it is too obvious. Guess what, water is wet as well. Enjoy your cheap imitation, designed for the 'modern' snowflake audience.
@@lostwarhead It's so obvious that it wou
@@kevinyancey i love how its so obvious you cant think of a single thing thats woke about it lmao
Just subbed to this channel! Hopefully no one will spoil them, book readers, I love that they are speculating hehehez 🥹💕
Thanks so much for support and sub, we're so happy to have you here! And we love how everyone is speculating, it's always such a joy to hear different theories!
