House Targaryen.


A new Game of Thrones prequel is reportedly being developed and is said to focus on the Targaryen family, according to Deadline, who also claims that it could be close to getting a pilot order. If this information proves correct, it could still be a long way from the pilot being filmed and that pilot potentially being ordered to series, but fans of the Targaryen characters will surely be thrilled by the news. Author George R.R. Martin and Colony co-creator Ryan Condal are said to be the executive producers on the series, which will reportedly be inspired by Martin's Fire & Blood book.

The outlet claimed the prequel series is "set 300 years before the events in Game of Thrones and tracks the beginning of the end for House Targaryen." Deadline also noted that, rather than being an additional prequel series that what was previously known, this project is a new take on a project that was previously confirmed as being in development back in 2017.


Over on Amazon, Fire & Blood is described, "Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen—the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria—took up residence on Dragonstone. Fire & Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart.

I'm trying to reign it in so I don't spoil shit. I thought they'd at least mention what those other riders are called this episode lol.

Not that it's a big deal, but they've been slowly planting that shit the whole goddamn season.

I'm so confused by where this season is going to end if we only have a few more episodes.

I feel like part of the problem is just the way fire and blood is written versus game of thrones.

Early game of thrones does deviate from the books, but it is close and that's why honestly it's nearly immaculate.

But just like late game of thrones, we're going off notes. Do I think the writers are making better decisions than late game of thrones? Yes.

Do I think it will ever reach the level of early thrones? No.

I couldn’t tell if the episode sucked because I was pretty high or it was really awful. Sounds like the later, was struggling to not be bored.

Yikes, we had more discussion from IDAFC21 IDAFC21 about Mayans.

:ROFLMAO: I can garner a certain level of appreciations for a REALLY bad show, but this, I'm just very MEH on. Its not BAD, but the stakes just aren't there like it was in OG got, there just arent that many players on the board ultimately, and its really just 2 stubborn bitches dealing with their horrible life choices. Like ive said before, this is just hatfields vs mccoys with (some) dragons and an equal level of inbreeding.

Dont get me wrong. I'm not going to stop watching.
