House Of Dragons

The prequel to GOT. S1/E1. I'd say E1 was good, and from the first episode, suggests the series has real potential:

So if you have HBO Max, been watching "John Adams" (2008), I watched it 8 years ago when it premiered, and while I liked it, it was a bit too slow and detailed even for me. But giving it a second look now and I'm really getting the full benefit of it.

Might have to do that. I watched some of it in a college history class around 2012. Watched again a few years later but I was probably in my early to mid 20s. I’m sure I’d appreciate it more now.

I have enjoyed House of the Dragon so far, but not as much as early seasons of GOT.

I couldn't stomach the new LOTR show, seemed a bit kitsch.

“The English” Western mini-series with Emily Blunt. Good story, not bad, intense ending.

I thought there were 2-3 episodes of HOD were quite good, the rest were OK, not great. I'd give S1 a B+ overall. Nothing like early GOT, but not terrible like later GOT once they ran out of original material.

I made it to E4 of LOTR based series and gave up. I really wanted to like it, woke garbage and annoying characters all around. F from me.
