I’m not sure who is doing these ratings. That show is absolute trash. It’s like watching the last season of game of thrones on repeat.
I still feel like those numbers are too high for S02.
How was 6 so low it wasn’t great but definitely want the worst episode…
Episode 4 was phenomenal. Episode 5 should be lower.
Season 2 Episode 6 was a great episode but got review bombed for having a lesbian kiss.
Honestly, S2E8 was a great episode of a 10 episode tv season. It was just a bad finale.
Just think. At the rate seasons are released now-a-days we’ll get to see season 3 around the next presidential election!
So, Episode 6 was review-bombed by idiots because of the kissing scene, and Episode 8 probably because of the ending, I guess. It feels like HotD only has two main factions, without as many interesting side characters as GoT. Also, HotD feels a bit soft, like it’s missing some shocking moments—similar to what we saw in Season 2, Episode 4 of HotD, which also got a high rating of 9.5.
…Am I the only one who’s finding out that episodes get rated like this?
Cant wait till we have a whole Five Episode season 4!
Im so pissy about TV these days.
Sigh. Is this worth watching? Season 1 was so slow and it doesn’t look like season 2 is much better.
Guys, come on over to /r/lotr_on_prime. Amnesty for everyone. Season 2 is looking good.
8 episodes is such a joke
Season 2 was definitely worse than season 1, by a noticeable margin, with many boring episodes. It had good episodes too. I hope season 3 is at least better than 2
Huh, TIL people liked the first season. I don’t know anyone personally who liked the show so I assumed it was universally disliked lol
Since red is synonymous of bad, you should select a different color map.
In regards to all of disagreement over the ratings, How about no one cares what anyone else thinks?
We all watch an episode, mentally tell ourselves if we enjoyed it or not, then move on- no need to have our taste validated by anyone else.
If we disagree, life is good. If we agree, life is good.
Just by looking at the headline, I knew that Game of Thrones season 8 would come up sooner or later- that dead horse has been beaten down to the microbial level.
Just enjoy life- unless being upset about TV shows is the sum of your life- then hate life and everything associated with it.
I’m stunned the ratings are this high and it turns out there’s a second season?? Awful show, bland and derivative.
The color choice for this graphic is odd
I’m shocked HBO is fumbling an ASOIAF series, they’ve totally never done that before
The issue with HOTD is that there’s so many freaking platinum blondes of both sexes it’s hard to remember who’s who 🤷🏼♂️
Well it seems my decision to not watch anything Game of Thrones adjacent after the shitshow that the TV show turned into was a good decision. I’ll wait till House of the Dragon is over to see if they stick the landing or get jell-o wheels like GoT season 7 and 8
I think it’ll be interesting too see if next season rolls around and people say like there too much battle and no drama happening when compared to Season 2. It definitely didn’t beat Season 1 but these ratings are so stupid.
releases hour long trailer for season 3 and called it a finale.
Really hate that the forgot to film the last two episodes of the season.
I’m bored. I stopped before episode 5. Don’t know if I want to continue.
The finale was so bad didn’t even know the season was over.
I’m pissed S2E3 is so high, legit to me it’s the worse episode objectively speaking.
Subjectively S2E6 is the worst
By the end of E8, I was stilling for episode 9 when big, meaningful shit should happen!
I was going to start season 2 after the finale. But I heard they left too much unanswered so I’ll just wait til season 3.
