  • "House of the Dragon" is a great companion to "Game of Thrones," but which show had the strongest start? For this versus battle, we’re looking at the first season of the original George R. R. Martin fantasy HBO series, “Game of Thrones” and how its prequel show’s inaugural season stacks up against it. Spoilers for both shows, so be forewarned. We'll be comparing each show in categories like Characters, Story, Twists & Shocks, and more! If you think we chose the wrong show to sit on the Iron Throne, get down in the comments and be “the first of your name” to tell us why we’re wrong.

    GOT just had way more compelling characters. Both in number and in their story. Even in just the first season. Not to mention what was going on north of the Wall is what really drew me in.
    HOTD wins with much less nudity. Which is refreshing in a first season on HBO. It sticks to being plot driven vs throwing T and A around to draw watchers to it.

    HOTD is good, don’t get me wrong, but GOT (minus the conclusion/end) is just one of the best shows ever made - even on rewatch. The world feels so vast and so real. The characters diverse and each so interesting. I could never pick a favourite watching GOT. In contrast, the world of HOTD (to me at least) feels small. Only 2/3 of the characters capture my attention, and even that is eclipsed by the level of interest I had for the characters in GOT. And the most important thing, GOT was incredibly unpredictable. I truly didn’t know what would happen. While watching HOTD I predicted nearly everything and this fact alone is the deal breaker for me. But who knows, maybe the next few seasons will change my mind.

    Having read all of the books and seen every single episode of both shows... i've come to this conclusion.
    Game of Thrones: starts off very strong, very grandiose and large in it's scale. It's truly an epic you're ready for!! strapped in and ready for more after season one... only to get diminishing returns on excitement post season 4. Then it just limps to the finish line with most story lines either ignored or rushed. Why? It's too much!!! A story like this? It would've taken like 12 seasons to get right... and we all know how it ended...
    House of the Dragon: I get it... the story seems... smaller? Sure, but consider this. The story is also more focused, and now only dealing with ONE THING!!! Who essentially "wins the game," but only between two sides of one family. Season one sets the chess pieces on the board, and with the end of episode 10, the chess pieces are now all about to move. I know exactly how this story ends, and barring any kind of deviation, we're all in for a wild WILD ride.
    I'm personally looking forward to more House of the Dragon, and I really think they're going to deliver. Trust me... it's one hell of a story.

    House of the Dragon it is only Targaryen's, also nothing can beat Golden Age GOT, just the Scenes with Tyrion and Tywin are enough to blow your Mind.
    Not to mention Ned Stark, Robb Stark and his Killer Quotes "It is Better than three Defeats' "I Won Every Battle but i am losing this War" etc
    Also Other Quotes from GOT live on to this day one of my favorites is "Serving when Serving is Safe" - Ned Stark and even better "It is Hard to Put a Leash on a Dog after you put a Crown on it's Head" - Tyron
    And even with all that said i knew House of the Dragon would be a Great Show, but nothing in my Opinion can touch Golden Age GOT namely Season 1-4

    As a die hard fan of GOT, despite enjoying very much what has been done in the first season of HOTD, I have to say that the original show is superior, for now. What I think HOTD lacks are light hearted scenes and characters who can bring a smile to our faces and make us laugh, like Tyrion, Bronn and even Jaime did at times. HOTD is always so serious and dramatic, it definitely keeps us on the edge of our seats. Other than this there isn’t anything wrong with HOTD that comes to mind, long may it reign!

    I am descendent of a few European royals. The one lesson you get from Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon is rulers should not be chosen by birth but by personality and skill. Most rulers took the title by force and kept it by force. This does not always make a great person in charge. A good ruler has to have skills in leadership, humanity, and management of the country. Just because your parent was a ruler doesn't mean you have these three skills. Democracy isn't perfect, but it's a much better government system than Royalty.

  • @Jay-ate-a-bug
    @Jay-ate-a-bug Před rokem +1

    I have to agree with WatchMojo on this one. Considering we are only looking at the first season of the shows, Game of Thrones is, by far, the better of the two for just two reasons: Characters and Stories. I was hooked hard by the characters alone, and had love for so many of them. Their deaths and circumstances had meaning that struck a nerve in me. The characters in House of the Dragon have just missed the mark when it came to endearing me to them. I get that the time jumps were necessary but having new actors playing the older versions really hurt the attachment. Deaths in HotD were rather meaningless because I didn't care about that character in any meaningful way.
    It will be nice to see how the series as a whole ends, because nothing could be as awful as how Game of Thrones ended; and I just don't see HotD making the same error.

    you cannot compare them at this stage, or honestly at all, in my opinion.
    we haven't had a finale for season one of HOTD yet, and the pacing definitely worked against them. it's unfair to put them up against GOT right now.
    and I can't find myself objectively looking at characters from an S1 standpoint on GOT now, to be honest. it's hard for me to specifically remember, without going back and just watching the first season, who had shown any growth or not. and after that absymal ending, I have no desire to do that right now.
    I'm hoping that HOTD will have the opposite of the GOT situation, where they will fall into and end on much better pacing than they began.

    I don't know why the people didn't start with this story or Aegon the conquer than the game of thrones series. The prequels were already done, and you would have people fully understand the Targaryens or learn why they were so power and how the other houses held power as well. Then when George R Martin was finished with the Got series they couldn't start it there. Hopefully after the Hotd they'll do Aegon the conquer story, seeing how strong and scary Balerion was in his prime.

    Game Of Thrones has 78 episodes following several families with several stories going on and so far House Of The Dragon has filmed 20 episodes (10 episodes for this video) which concentrates on the Targaryen family so GOT is going to win the characters chapter. In fact you can’t compare one season of HOTD to 8 seasons of GOT as it’s unfair as GOT has had 8yrs to play out over getting fans more invested in the characters and story. It’s almost like having a round called “number of dragons” in which it would clearly benefit HOTD series

    Honestly, Viserys was the same as Robert Baratheon...minus the drinking and the women. They were both too weak and blind to see what was brewing under their noses for years. Robert never lived to see how blind he was, but Viserys CHOSE to be blind to it all until it was too late. At that point he was physically too weak for his final display of strength to tip the scales.
