s01e02 — Hard Salt Beef

@exSqq: it was the worst season of all imho

@exSqq: The genres are somewhat different, in South Park it may be appropriate, but here it looks shabby and primitive.

@alexeyfalko: Well, it's like medieval fantasy, so immorality is the norm. There were more boobs and pussies in thrones than there were dragons))

@exSqq: there is a difference between nudity and bowel movements, the first can be aesthetically shown, which was done in the IP, but the second cannot be, and this is pure squalor, the authors look like a schoolboy with such techniques

@alexeyfalko: it's better to look at the shit than the sex, which is disgusting.

In general, you can do without the first and second series.

@alexeyfalko: in the first seasons of IP, nudity is not that aesthetic, they then licked the picture and walked away from it. the sex of Jaime and Cersei, the rape of Daenerys are deliberately unpleasant, and the sex scene of theon and some kind of daughter of the captain of the ship is just brr. It seems to me that they did this for the sake of outrage and discussion.

@alexeyfalko: stop covertly envying the old grandfather's dick. The knight is obliged to draw his sword on business, which he did.

@umaryan: it's a fake((((

@Snegnarek: for an actor, yes. The character is not known for certain)

@HelenaMe: Horror in general. I'm tired of their style of making series for the current situation in the world. Oh, how wonderful the 00s seasons were, where Kenny died on cd)

@hanginhan: Yes, and it's even worse in books.

@Blizzard18: And what exactly didn't you like?

@Serialkiller_402: They should be ready for the finals.

@Ziza: and he was dying)

@Ziza: Boobs and thrones forever... 😃

@GermanSW: And where should he go? The tournament is here

@Gevorg: Exactly. The tournament is here, but it's shown in the dark, at the end of the episode.
The rest of the time, Duncan goes from one location to another and mumbles the same thing.
Boring.
And I know what's going to happen next.
That's why I'm watching.
And for those who haven't read the book, it's some kind of sad shit, without a plot, where they defecate all the way.
All this could easily be reduced to three normal hour series.
Instead of milking for half an hour a week.

@GermanSW: so this is an opening, we also have openings in the evenings, plus there is football at evening stadiums. Dunk is looking for a way to get into the tournament...
have you asked a lot of non-readers?

@Gevorg: It's enough to read their comments under the analysis.
"MyShows" is not the only resource where you can read them.
What does football have to do with stadiums?
The darkness was filmed in the dark to save on the only spectacular scene.
But the old knight's ass and dick were shown in close-up for some reason.
So far, the series is a three.

@GermanSW: you generalize yourself - "for those who haven't read it, it's crap"
There are torches that give light

@Gevorg: And there is also daylight.
It's better to see and easier to shoot.

@GermanSW:
The rest of the time, Duncan goes from one location to another and mumbles the same thing.

Let's be honest, now a lot of TV shows are made according to this principle in order to stretch and reduce the concentration of events by one episode. In the opposite case, when they do, the series is quickly closed due to too high costs, unless, of course, it has become hyper-popular, which is obtained by a few. It's sad, but it's a fact. Yes, and anime has accustomed many to such tightness and fillers. And considering that many people are already normal, why would the creators make it less profitable for themselves?

@Elven_Kelevra: - Yes, but there are none here at all.
Two episodes out of six.
For half an hour with a break per week.
The creators are just shooting themselves in the foot.
In short, there are no complaints about the actors.
But the chosen format is terrible.
And this series won't be a big hit.
Although I could have.
And at the end of the two episodes, apart from two nasty scenes, there is nothing to discuss.

@GermanSW: and there is also a night, when you need to show the night.

@Gevorg: It's better to show a spectacular scene during the day.
Instead of a fucking Dunk, a grandfather with a bolt and other unnecessary bullshit.
Which filled this series.
Rather than shooting darkness in the dark, in the only scene where something interesting begins.
In the IP, it was woven into the plot and not so annoying.
And here it's all unclear why.

@GermanSW: darkness is a natural part of the day. It won't be realistic to show just one day. Why do the games take place in evening stadiums with floodlights, and not during the day? Whether it's football or some kind of discovery

@Gevorg: No problem.
They would have filmed fucking Duncan at night.
Who needs such a degree of realism, let him sit and stare.
And tournaments and battles would be filmed during the day.
So that they can be viewed without straining your eyes.
Why are you clinging to this football?
We're watching a TV series.

@GermanSW: Why are you clinging to the opening? There was a performance once at night.

@Gevorg: I got hooked because it was the only significant event in three episodes.
Where it was possible to finally show something beautiful and spectacular.
Not darkness and inappropriate vulgarity again.

@GermanSW: It was beautiful and spectacular - every moment with Egg and Dunk

@Gevorg: No. The first two episodes are about nothing.
And the rating of the series, no wonder, increased by the third.
Where something finally started happening.

@Elven_Kelevra: The author of the series has already said that he wants 12 seasons, wants to show them all his life, and even Martin gave sketches of subsequent events.

@waasa: it is possible)

@waasa: it seems to me that it's too early for Duncan to have sex, he's really slow)) Maybe someone else's sex, or someone will puke.

@AlexSok18: + to the piggy bank of great dialogues

@GermanSW: But it's not. The show literally highlights its difference from Game of Thrones at every moment. This is a reasonable solution for such a spin-off. And all the sounds here are wonderful and vibe-like. The series is more intimate and down-to-earth, with a duo of characters a la Arya and the Dog or Podrick and Brienne in the center, without any global conflicts, as in Game of Thrones. Therefore, the abandonment of the screensaver is appropriate here. This is a completely different show, albeit from the same universe. You can't always be a parasite on the main series.

@GermanSW: I agree that the music is unmemorable, but the sound from the IP would be inappropriate, we would involuntarily start comparing both series, which would not benefit him.

@Inokanoana: The series are compared anyway.
By itself, few people would be interested in him.
And the creators are doing everything to make comparisons that are not in favor of the "Knight".
I understand why Martin likes the series.
And to those who have read books.
But if you look at it from the point of view of a random person, two episodes are about nothing, and even for half an hour, an unnecessary defecation scene, a nasty old grandfather with a knee-high bolt, and the title melody was also removed.

@Nog: 7 inches is only 18 cm.

@limbo: Yes, obviously not the right size, the knight looks like a true pikabushnik

@limbo: hanging 18 is different). Although there seems to be more😆 anyway.

@limbo: total )

@ChandlerLi: they read your comment despite the original and think "who wrote what there"? 🤣

@exSqq: damn, and why did I read it) well, okay, the series is short, it's not scary)

@Paramelion: well, he won't be the king in this series)

@exSqq: It wasn't completely closed here and it wasn't closed just below

@Paramelion: It's not a secret at all. they wrote in all the announcements for the series.

@nayTuHbl4: Well, if I didn't know, then not all of them wrote, obviously.

@nayTuHbl4: It's a secret if a person doesn't watch the announcements, because spoilers

@kobiii: Well, Duncan's not very bright. And in my opinion, it's nothing but a tournament and (maybe) Tansel is not interested.

@Gevorg: I guess your screen settings are different. ))
Well, even if it's visible, it's still worse than during the day, that's a fact.

@PianoOnTheLake: But what can you do - this is not a planet without a night

@Gevorg: We have the same thing, but most sports events are held during the day.)) Even if there is electricity. And in the days of torches, if you wanted the audience (the local audience) to look at what was happening from a distance, few people would have thought of starting the tournament at night.

@PianoOnTheLake: But they can see normally, and they only need to see the sticks there.

@Gevorg: You can also just listen to the crier who announces who has fallen. ))
Live well... But living well is even better!

@PianoOnTheLake: Why listen when you can see? There are torches, you can see

@Gevorg: Well, okay, watch with torches.)

@PianoOnTheLake: what can you do - torches are better than candles, but searchlights have not yet been invented

@Gevorg: We haven't figured out the day yet either.))

@Hidji: I'm not familiar with the original, now I'll know.

@Paramelion: that's how he drank in the tavern in the first episode, he's older)

@Gevorg: I would also suggest Spartak, whose new season is underway right now.

@Sich666: Well, I mean, 3 hours is even a lot. It looks like two hours at most.

@ANNIEGHOST: so, as expected, the Hand is also a bastard.

@AlexSok18: no, he has a Dorn mother.

@vkglen: And the older brother?

@vkglen: it turns out that the son of the hand is a black-haired Targaryen on a horse, and the king has 2 sons? Blond and Egg?

@AlexSok18: Meikar is not a king, he is the younger brother of the hand, but because of the color of his hair and beard he looks much older. And he has four sons, they showed three, but I won't spoil it.

@ANNIEGHOST: Is the label a spoiler? After all, the Hedge Knight was released before both The Princess and the Queen and the World of Ice and Fire

@vkglen: Does the right hand have no sons? Is he even a Targaryen? Thank you in advance, and thanks for no spoilers)

@AlexSok18: Vallar, who played at the tournament, is his eldest son.
There was also a younger one, Mattaris.

@GermanSW: thanks, apparently, there are only spoilers) so I'll focus on this information.

@AlexSok18: Well, to put it briefly)

At the moment, the King is Dayron 2.
The Blackfire rebellion has already taken place (the legitimized bastards of the Targaryens, later Brynden Rivers, the bloody Raven, will play a major role in the politics of Westeros)

Daeron the second has sons:
1) Baylor Slomi-The Spear (here we see him in the series, the black-haired one - the hand, the war hero, the Lord of Dragonstone - would probably be one of the best kings of Westeros)
Baylor has 2 sons:
1.1. Valarr (we see him at the end of the episode)
1.2. Mataris (it doesn't seem to be there yet)
- his hair is black, because he has Dornish roots in his mother's marriage and he took after her. The sons, by the way, are also not very Valyrian in appearance, Valarr's hair is light, but brown, and the second one is the same.
- Bailar is married to Jena Dondarrion

2) Aerys 1 - it has not been shown yet, but it has been mentioned. An extremely pious comrade without children.

3) Reigel Targaryen - we don't see it, but mentions Baylor jokingly.
Reigel has 1 son and 2 daughters:
3.1. Aylor and Aylora are twins, married to each other.
3.2. Deinora (marries Meikar's 2nd son, Aerion, and they will have a son there)

4) Makar 1 - we see him and his brother, Baylor, arriving together. It was his children who disappeared.
Meikar has 4 sons:
4.1. Dayron is a Drunk - we saw him in the tavern where Dunk saw Egg for the first time. A drunkard and always has strange dreams with dragons (by the way, he will have an imbecile daughter to claim the throne, but it didn't work out)
4.2. Aerion Bright Flame - we saw him in the second series, spoke arrogantly to Dunk. The general panic will partially begin because of him. Let's just say that the loony is still the same.
4.3. Aemon Targaryen (Maester Aemon) - Dada, the same grandfather Targaryen since the beginning of the service of Jon Snow
4.4. Aegon 5 is Incredible (I can't imagine who it could be)

By the way, from this brief description of the family, you can understand how far Aegon 5 was from the throne)

@Characteristica: I'm shocked how you remember them all.

@nare-celebi: фанат)

@Characteristica: Thank you very much

@Characteristica: 3.1. Aylor and Aylora are twins, married to each other.
We've seen this before.

@Nadezhdat: well, if Aegon 2 and Helaine are, then they're brother and sister, of course, but not twins)

@Characteristica: I came here to read this comment.

@an_khv: in general, it's the same, but it's painlessly painless while the series is running, it's hard to believe.

@AlexSok18: in general, there is a full-fledged Targaryen family tree on the fandom wiki with years of life, reign (if they were on the throne), wives (+ indication if sisters), relatives and children. I haven't been there for a hundred years, but it seems convenient from what I remember).

@AlexSok18: who should the vast majority (including me) feel like, who is not the first time they have become entangled in the Targaryens and may not even have untangled themselves😆😅

@an_khv: Well, there's also a plus in understanding who someone is, whether you've read the book. Martin usually describes everything very well there, so I quickly memorized the characters, even the episodic ones. But I haven't read this work, and they didn't show much about dragons here, without much explanation.

@Hidji: Well, yes, the Internet is a treasure trove, but thanks a lot to the locals for the answers and clarifications, because it's somehow more comfortable.

@AlexSok18: That's right.) Sometimes it's not so much easier to ask here, but more convenient because of the specifics in the answers received. And it's addictive if you're interested and start reading the glossary. I somehow got in during the first season of DD and sat for almost two hours, but do I need it? 😁

@Balysh: Yes, later, when watching the video reactions, I realized that it was a reservation and that I had not sold the horse with pocket money.

@Svetvokne: YOU'RE LYING YOU'RE LYING

@vk531418: 🤣🤣🤣
