Episode eight of House of the Dragon brought the feels as Paddy Considine's Viserys Targaryen tug at our heartstrings. With the episode seeing a frail and weak king still getting out of his bed to defend his daughter Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D'Arcy), the episode was filled with all the heart and politics you would expect from thrones as fans are hailing Considine's performance online. They are also reacting to the beginning of the "Dance of the Dragons" as Alicent's (Olivia Cooke) misunderstanding is going to bring about a lot of turmoil to King's Landing.
