âIt's all about Rhaenicent, I fear. Because Sara Hess can't write anything else!â
Itâs more than that, I do believe we underestimated just how pissed off C&H are that not only did everyone reject Alicentâs âredemptionâ in 2x08 but the vast majority of viewers took Georgeâs side even if they never read the books.
So they have two options in front of them:
Acknowledge that George is a better writer and you have screwed up big time.
Double down, convinced if you shove Rhaenicent down the viewersâ throats 24/7 theyâll finally accept it.
Guess which one the narcissists will choose?
It's clear they've chosen option 2. Two tv spots have been leaked and all there is is corny lines about Rhaenicent like:
"She will cut you open and watch you bleed"
"She will lure you into Vhagar's jaws"
"Rhaenyra still has good in her, but the weight of the crown crushes"
Fucking MELODRAMA no one cares about! These are matriarchs of opposing political sides, losing children and allies on the daily in a war they helped kickstart. But instead, they're acting like mopy TEENAGERS.
Condal and Hess have no idea what's coming. Every other character at this rate is more interesting than the two skin-changers they've written bearing the names Rhaenyra and Alicent.
