Welcome back to Mythkeepers! This week, Zach and Scott dive into the controversial second episode of House of the Dragon Season 2, "Rhaenyra The Cruel."
Our hosts have differing takes on this episode. Zach takes a more positive tone, focusing on the "micro" moments that made the episode enjoyable—highlighting beautiful shots, set pieces, performances, and music. On the other hand, Scott expresses his boredom and frustration with the "macro" aspects, feeling that the big-picture plot and story fell short.
We also discuss standout performances from Tom Glynn-Carney as King Aegon and Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower, which added depth to this episode.
Join us as we break down the episode’s key moments, discuss our favorite scenes, and share our predictions for what lies ahead in this epic saga.
