I plead the fifth. But I assume the same way the other posters above me watched it today.Brian Earl Spilner said:GreasenUSA said:
Just finished the first episode. It was basically exactly what I was expecting, and held my interest. Will continue to watch.
How did you watch it?

Newsgroups for me.
The Long Night is the Battle of Winterfell? Despite watching it live, I feel like I still haven't actually seen it.
WARNING: I have a deep-seated desire for others to love the Star Wars franchise as much as I do, in exactly the way I do, and get snippy and sensitive and passive-aggressive when they don't.
Is anyone else's hbo max crashing when you start watching this?
Yep. Can't get it to load on any device or my phone app.
HBO making a killing.
Thought it was pretty good
I enjoyed that
Holy **** that was great. Not sure why anyone would think it's slow even though it's episode 1.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Seemed ok, except the hair seemed a bit overdone.

Retcon of "song of ice and fire" seems gratuitous
This was my only annoyance except I just read an article that claims GRRM said this to the show runners. If true, I definitely don't mind it.
Yeah we're in, let's see where this goes
I'm glad we're back in Westeros! First episode has me locked in - can't wait for next Sunday night.
Better than I expected after the mess that was the last GOT year. Pleasantly surprised even though the reviews had been good.
This is probably recency bias on my part, but it seems like they took a lesson on from BCS. The prequel can be more character and detail driven because people already know the world and want that deeper dive or nostalgia. And the new characters seem rich and well written to this point.

They did such a good job of introducing the characters. This show is gonna be so good especially because they established early how flawed the Targaryens are. I think it was a perfect start
Is Matt Smith going to die soon? He seems totally miscast for this role.

Was the dagger the king had the same one Aria used to kill the Night King?

In literature this is called foreshadowing

Maybe, but it seems to be the same prop from GoT. Also it seems that nobody writing about the episode tonight saw that blurb from the show runner. Every single article/video I can find tonight are saying it is the catspaw dagger.C@LAg said:showrunner says no.will25u said:Cat's Paw Dagger. Yes.BayAg_14 said:

The same dagger is also in a book at the citadel.
Maybe it is not the dagger, but there are too many things that line up for it to not be.
My guess is it is, and we will eventually get a name for it as it seems like a pretty important dragon glass dagger.
First episode is not bad at all. Definitely checked all the GoT boxes: blood, guts, dragons, tits, and dong.
I'm all the way back in. Great start
I thought Targs were incestuous. Why doesbt the uncle just marry the princess?
Also, a lot of unattractive people cast for this.

I honestly thought it was a very good episode. Definitely makes me interested in the series again. I'm excited to see where they take this.

after Aegon 1, no more polygamy
If interested in a breakdown. Emergency Awesome does a good job of explaining what is happening and differences from the books, etc.
Not sure if it was just my HBO or what, but the picture was so dark and muted.
