But thats because the character is writen like this, his lines are badass, his storyline was written badass. There are probably more super charismatic actors in the show who would outshine everyone, but they got "lame" or less intresting characters with more normal storylines.

It wasn't a letter to retreat, it was a letter extending help from the King. Daemon didn't want his help because of pride and decided he needed a decisive win before the King's reinforcements arrived to take away from his victory.

Everyone has said this already, I'm just adding my fuel to the fire: - This is the guy who played the Doctor and in that he played an absolutely class goofball and it worked so well. This role is so completely different and is smashes it again out the park. He is an underrated Chameleon.
lets not forget the hybrid of both Daemon Targaryen and the goofy Doctor in the Morbius movie. he had both the humor of the Doctor and the lethality of Daemon Targaryen in that role. he is truly a master at his craft
@@lordwarlockthangwrath8662 The vampire lord of Mousillon whos name i am forgetting has a very similar helmet but his armour is more crimson. Looks badass.
Vermathors rider was daemon and viserys father jaeherys or how ever its spelt he was renowned for singing to his dragon because the dragon loved it. Daemon is more then likely singing a song he heard his father sing to vermathor
2:28 Daemon is so dedicated to their culture and their ancestry, it's why he is basically peak Targaryen. One has to be livid to see it all replaced by some random andal bullshit
It baffles me when people say this after seeing him be a violent narcissist. Like seriously, are you looking to get beat up cause he keeps getting spam messages?
"In the Vale, men are said to f*@! sheep instead of women; I can assure you, THE SHEEP ARE PRETTIER." That part - along with Viserys's reaction of "My troublemaking little brother at it again!" - had me howling with laughter - especially since Daemon said it with a straight face and VERY bored tone! 🤣🤣🤣
Rhaenyra moved to slowly. She should have followed the war plan immediately, surrounded King’s Landing, jailed Otto, confined Alicent & Helaena to a castle and exiled every other surviving Green male to the wall.
Basically war of roses them. Alicent is imprisoned in a tower and gets to die mysteriously, Otto and all his brothers die (finally getting rid of the Hightowers because they have a tendency to be rebellious) marry Helena's children off to her heirs and done. Though the problem is Helena had sons, she could probably eventually find them brides among some lesser Targs if she has other daughters or just princes in the tower them...
Daemon has the power and swagger of a prince but none of the burden of royalty; unlike every other monarch, they're either worn out from the burden, acting powerful rather than being powerful or have a stick up their arse. Daemon is a rebel prince and he loves it, trouble is he wants more.
@@Arctodon It is not the same thing at all. It just means your married to the head of state e.g the Monarch and have power over the rest of royal family but not over the realm, government or ministers. You get consulated but never make the final decision ever!
@@taintedseal Yup. Great warriors don't make great kings. Like Robert, he'd get bored of administrating the kingdom (something Otto was actually good at). As always, idiots will flock to a charismatic hero.
He is why i watch the show, it was because of dragons at first but then it went from wanting to see dragons to wanting to see what he will do and say next😂😂
the showrunners and writers have loudly voiced their dislike for daemon’s popularity 💀 it’s so unprofessional and pathetic, they just wanted to humble the audience for liking him, i guess (in detriment of the show)
His facial expressions and sighs are hilarious. Yet, the scene of him chocking his wife does not belong here because it's neither savage nor ''badass'' nor funny...
Wasn't a shock when he killed his last wife? He's not a likeable character, but he was what he's always been. The fact everyone could look past his other vile behaviors before that is really dumb. What did everyone expect from him?
Any time he walks in I just imagine James Charles catch phrase like " HEY SISTERS " cuz when ever he walks in it’s such a shock, like bitch I thought you were in exile
I feel like Matt Smith has this cult following of fans since his Dr. Who days...me not having seen Dr. Who, I get why people love him so much after watching House of the Dragon, he's an awesome actor!
If Viserys recognized Daemon's loyalty to him and didnt exile him, the Dance would never have happened and Hightowers wouldnt be able to make moves. Dragons would still be alive
@@baccoony9148 Thank you 😊 He has a similar attitude as Daemon, except he had faced torture of many types from his vampire master for over 200 years . So he only uses his charms to lure people in because that’s the only thing he knows how to do… I could go on and on lmao
"Death can have me when it earns me" nobody knows this but in the books he is more like kratos like after he gets married and settles down he pretty much hates his past self.
No. Ser Criston Cole is a bitter cunt for holding grudge against Rhaenyra who didn't want to abandon throne for sack of oranges with him. Cole is psychopath made of a man with hurt ego being rejected by a woman, he is nothing to compare with Daemon
They picked the perfect actor. He completely outshines everyone
he really is great. Can't take your eyes off him whenever he is on screen. And a lot of that time he isn't even saying much.
@@patrick4662it’s more because his silence and facial expressions are classic.

Perhaps with the exception of Paddy Considine as King Viserys, since he did so much with so little.
Otto: "To choose violence here is to declare war."
Daemon: *wonderful!* 💀
😂😂
Daemon: don’t threaten me with a good time
“Did your brother mention if this one also bears a remarkable, yet entirely coincidental resemblance to the commander of the city watch?”💀
Rhaenyra was like Cersei: couldn't even put out kids that looked like her husband.
@@HookedOnSonics518She's nothing like Cersei. Rhaenyra and Laenor actually tried to conceive but they always failed.

I think he said marked (pronounced mahk-ehd), not remarkable. But I had to play it a few times to be sure.
When they announced Matt Smith, I really couldn't see him in the role. He definitely changed my mind.
Fantastic actor. He has great charisma
I felt the same way when he was announced as the new Doctor Who years ago; fucking brilliant actor.
The Doctor really went off the rails here
Yup as Whovian I can’t help but support him in his whole vibe and all war crimes

You can tell Daemon is Aemond’s hero.
They say never meet your heroes, aemond should’ve listened
Daemon saw the letter to retreat and said "Fuck that, Imma do a 1v9"
It wasn't a letter to retreat, it was a letter extending help from the King. Daemon didn't want his help because of pride and decided he needed a decisive win before the King's reinforcements arrived to take away from his victory.
more like 1 v 900
"Wonderful" is so underrated 😂
"Badass high valyrian singing" LOL
Daemon steals the show every time he is on screen. Such a great performance
If Daemon remained in Kings Landing, Hightower would have never got into the house.
If he was Viserys's Hand then yeah, the Dance would have been fully prevented
The problem is that Viscerys never saw Daemon's worth, and made him leave.
@@WolfMaiden11 Viserys listened to the wrong people. They saw Daemon as a threat and feared his savagery.
