"GOT" got us totally hooked and emotionally connected to many characters, but House of Dragons its hard to remember anyone but for bad acting and badly cast! Season 1 was pishly forgettable with paedophile's and passionless pitiful scene fillers. Season 2, a little better but often easily bored and then your mind wonders mid Episode finding yourself having to rewind when realising something half interesting happens. I've been constantly refreshing my cheap stick for Episode 9 thinking no way Epsisode 8 was Season finale!? Now we gotta wait another 5yrs to get post cliffhanger!!! Guess they hope enough time passes you forget how poop previous pedestrian series were!!??
