tonight. Alas, Season 2 was cut short by two episodes thanks to Warner Bros. cost-saving measures following the Discovery merger—a merger many questioned at the time, and one that has sent shockwaves through HBO’s programming slate, including the cancellation of beloved series likeIf we had gotten a full 10-episode season, we would almost certainly be in for a treat tonight: The Battle of the Gullet.
And that’s the thing: Condal isn’t just talking about the Battle of the Gullet. In the post-finale featurette, the showrunner said that Season 3 will be the war we’ve all been waiting for. made it clear that from the get-go the idea was to frame the show around the experiences of these two women So when I read director Geeta Patel say that this is a love story, I’m very confused."Alicent is feeling very alone,” Patel said of the final episode of Season 2. “She feels she doesn't have a real partner in her life, even her father.

Mostly, I’m worried that the show will continue to try to paint Rhaenyra is a heroic figure, when her story—and vague book spoilers follow—is much more complex. If the writers truly believe that the only reason Rhaenyra is portrayed as losing her grip and becoming bitter and tyrannical and making lots and lots of mistakes is because “history is written by men” then I’m afraid they will make a far less complex and compelling version of her character for the adaptation.
