@dornad I genuinely fear for Rhaenyra when her and Daemon are alone in a room together.
@dornad @Coffee_Addict He is very consistent with his disregard for his daughter's emotional well being.
@TallonMetroid @Lyre The prequels were largely saved by the the Clone Wars animated series as well. I don't see how that happens for the sequel trilogy.
We won't get something as good as Andor until we do. That is, you can't plan on it. It will happen eventually, but Andor was a hard to match high water mark. (I also would have appreciated Acolyte more as a mystery.)
@Reach Lol, I sat through the whole thing a year ago, because I was haunted by it from my childhood. It is truly awful.
I think Rogue One and Andor are better entry points for people who like grittier more socially realistic fantasy/sci-fi. If she likes BSG and GoT, she is far more likely to be into Andor than other Star Wars.
@Odo @Oneeightnine I had a pretty similar experience, tearing through the books between seasons 1 and 2. Reconciling Ian Glen's charisma with the book version Mormont, creeping on a teenage girl, was hard too.
@Casey_Masterpiece @MushuChupacabra The sad thing is that the "Inside the Episode" explanation often undermined far better explanations being posted by apologist fans.
Huh, the season 1 "sexposition" complaint is legit. But out of 11 major character, the show/books kill off 3 in first 6 seasons/5 novels. 2 more die in the second to last episode of the show. The first 3 deaths push the plot forward in meaningful ways. I'm thinking I disagree.
Brienne's Feast plot was great her plot line and Lady Stoneheart should have been in season 4/5. (Along with Nimble Dick).
