HOT D S3 - House of the Dragon: Season 2 Recap and Awards

This week, Da7e and Neil are back for another round of Re-Thrones as they tackle the abruptly abbreviated second season of House of the Dragon. They begin with a recap of the season's events, a discussion about the limited redeeming qualities of Ser Criston Cole, and highlight a number of very important adaptation choices made by the writers' room. Then they hand out season their season superlatives, The Georgies [51:20], before diving into The Storm [01:16:54] to look ahead at what they expect from season 3, using Neil's book knowledge, early reviews, and rampant internet rumors. Next week, House of the Dragon season 3 begins! The season premiere airs on HBO and HBO Max Sunday evening and the pod returns Monday for a full breakdown.
