It happens sometimes, but it's never a good thing for HBO. The leak didn't bring any more attention to the finale, that's basically impossible. People who were going to watch it watched it, except this time some of them watched the leak instead of watching it on HBO/HBO Max.

That and Rhaenyra’s face at the end before the credits role were the two best bits.
Fecking two years we have to wait now for S2 unless it’s majorly leaked somewhere well ahead by then.
Who was the dragon that Daemon awoke in the pit?
Yeah he just started the war when Mommy was suing for peace.
Vhagar is equivalent to about 5 of the 15 little ones though. Vermithor will fix that issue.
Someone even said it, the dragons are not battle tested, think it was Rhaenyra. And if they aren't then the child riders sure as heck are not either when it comes to trying to control the dragons.
2 years?!
2 years?!
It could be next year, they haven't decided yet.
Feck. They need to start filming season 3 while season 2 is in post production.2 years?!
Not the riders but here is a size comparison.
Imagine being that much bigger than most dragons but having that unfortunate name. Sorry Sheepstealer. They didn't do you justice.
That was a good episode.
Vhagar is a freaking Kaiju. That shot of it rising as Luke gets down from his dragon That's just unfair on the others. Can imagine it's going to take care of a few of those on team Black's side.
Also, loved that the last two episodes individually are about each of the rival factions and their quest for the throne, gives more depth to both the new Alicent and Rhaenyra leading into the war.

Who was the dragon in the dungeon?
They weren't in the last episode.
Can we take a minute to talk about rhaenerya literally pulling her dead baby out and dropping it on the floor like a sack of potatoes? Because feck me.
Thanks for this. I was getting very confused
Somehow I missed that current king Aegon married his sister
Really good finale. The time-jumps were a little frustrating at times but overall a strong season & much closer to earlier GoT seasons.
Interesting how neither of them could control their dragon at the end. I wonder if that'll be the case with the others too.

Reallly enjoyed it. Sucks about the wait. At least that other show did us the curtesy of being a bit shit so we wouldn't care :/
Great episode, knew the dragon was done for when we saw the big one.
That was the younger son right?
Anyone remember if the dragons in GoT had the saddles and harnesses?
The Strong kid kinda forgot about the big dragon
Nah pretty sure they were all getting poked
Was the middle child.
I've not read the book, but I reckon one way or another all the bastards will die. Don't think it makes sense if they were allowed to live.
Aye sorry, I meant the youngest of the 2 she sent with the messages
Yeah… the older one is capable, he’ll get the job done
I don't even think GRRM knows so kudos to you!
Daemon was talking about wild dragons and those unclaimed. People seem to think that was Vermithor, the dragon that was rode by Paddy’s…uh…uncle, or cousin, or…both. Whoever the hell the previous king was.
I think everyone in the show should have name tags
According to subtitles it seems that's the case
That’s probably my only issue with the show. It’s tried to make Alicent and Rhaenyra too neutral. I’d love to see Alicent be more Machiavellian and cunning, and Rhaenyra more prone to Targaryen pride and rage. Both opposites but both being the ones who progress the story.
Although we might see these attributes develop over next season. We’ve seen Alicent doing what needs to be done to outmanoeuvre her father, and I get the feeling Lary’s needs to be watching his feet around her
. While Rhaenyra has lost a son and was showing she’s a queen who can go against that opinions of her followers and daemon

Targaryens interbreeding names is the real crime.
He lost control of his dragon.
That was weird. It was a great episode of tv but not a great finale. Felt like it would’ve been a brilliant episode 9 of GoT but ultimately nothing got resolved and it was quite unsatisfactory.
Yeah said the same thing. So odd

My apologies for that.
Thought it was a great episode.
The dragon chase scene was fantastic. Loads of tension. Child characters can be hard to like in these type of shows but I liked Lucerys. Sad to see him go out like that.
Long white hair, eyepatch, scar, a jewelled eye. Aemond is basically an anime character.
They love a grisly, tragic birth in this.
I love Rhaenys. She looks regal as feck. Her dragonrider armour is amazing too.
Hoping to see the Starks, the honourable fools, next season.

I did think it was funny that the twin kings guard just waltzed up to the funeral on a heavily fortified island and was like “guys, i’m cool” without any notice or issue.
Thanks - I didn't give you any points as I'm sure others have been forgetting the rules.
Yep. The oldest went to the Starks and the Aryns who are up north. Though I think there's an even younger "Valaryon" kid.
I dont think they did. It makes some sense that dragons would have proper equipment at this point when the whole ruling family has them.
