Game of Thrones: S1, Episode 10 (Fire and Blood) | First Time Watching! | TV Series REACTION!

[@leondaprofessor]

The last scene with Dany and her 3 dragon babies always gives me goosebumps. Peak

[@jerodast]

One of the best fantasy scenes ever IMO. There are other scenes that probably have more dramatic heft to them, but just in terms of tone and what it portends for this world, it's phenomenal.

[@jerodast]

Obligatory "it's even better in the book" comment: In the book she declare each of her guards a bloodrider of her new khalasar. In turn, they each regretfully say a woman cannot be a Khal, but they will loyally accompany her back to Vaes Dothrak for her to join the other honored widows. She ignores each of their rejections and moves on to the next. After she emerges with the dragons, they all fall to their knees in awe, along with everyone else. (There's also some minor things about the size of the pyre and how they seem weirdly casual waiting to go in and see what remains of her after it burns out, but no big deal.)

[@chrisb.8758]

You were right to recognize the guy who came to Arya’s defense and he did have a cool helmet, but he didn’t have anything to do with the jousting or knowing too much, I think you’re combining him with Ser Hugh (the guy who got stabbed in the throat in the joust) This one is the kid Ned went to go see at the blacksmith and figured out it was Robert’s bastard son.

[@s1lm4r1l6]

"and for the first time in hundreds of years, the night came alive with the music of dragons."

[@kristymcdowell6185]

“As Daenerys Targaryen rose to her feet, her black hissed, pale smoke venting from its mouth and nostrils. The other two pulled away from her breasts and added their voices to the call, translucent wings unfolding and stirring the air, and for the first time in hundreds of years, the night came alive with the music of dragons.” This quote is from the books. And it still gives me goosebumps every single time

[@kanea77]

Couldn't tell you how many times I've seen that "King in the North" scene, but I still get goosebumps every time

[@Tyrion2024]

"Maybe to keep him focused. Maybe he doesn't trust her. Maybe he's just an asshole." I love how well you already know Tywin. Well done.

[@BouillaBased]

"They are so odd, those two." They're a moving illustration of "keep your friends close, and your enemies closer." Ambition is what they see and admire in each other, and they know they rarely, if ever, want their aims to meet.

[@balerion77]

1:57 , That's the Recruiter guy from the Night's Watch, He's friends with Benjen Stark . He was traveling with Tyrion Lannister , remember? He's the One who RODE fast to inform NED STARK that Catelyn Stark has Imprisoned Tyrion. Ned greets him as "Friend" 18:55 , That's KING Robert Baratheon's Bastard Son, Gendry. Ned stark met him at the Armourer's Shop.

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

This is why, at the very start, I tell reactors that they REALLY need to pay attention. This is a show that demands a lot of its viewers. It’s odd that so many people don’t remember Yoren, a character who is in scenes with Tyrion, Jon, Eddard & Arya. He probably has almost as much screen time as Baelish or Varys at this time.

[@Ernwaldo]

Good points. Am sure they figured it out when watching Season 2, long before this was posted here.

[@BUKUDI]

​@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192relax. Its a show. & these two are very attentive. Baelish & Varys are far more memorable on a first viewing, no matter screentime

[@tyroneloki5131]

@@Ernwaldo to be fair very few 1st time watchers picked up on that.

[@Ernwaldo]

@ Fair enough, but my point is that the comment is completely unnecessary at this point. Chandra and Jordan are already into Season 6 of the show.

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

Fun story, my brother tried to get me to watch game of thrones for a long time while the first season was coming out (went on for weeks). Basically said if I liked The Lord of the Rings, I would love it. Every episode is movie quality and has a great story. I went to watch an NBA game with him one night, went back to his place and watched the first episode at like 10 PM. After it was over, I looked over at him and said can we watch another? Long story short, I was hooked. I watched the entire first season in one sitting and drove an hour and a half back home on no sleep. Then I was hooked from then on out for S2 and on.

[@rockerctereo2851]

Probs the best reaction couple out there. Not constant chatterboxes like so many others. Your comments are to the point and not overly convoluted. Love the emotion you both show. Genuine & empathetic. You always pick up on small details others miss. Lastly superb editing.❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@marjofrance83]

Yes ! I totally agree with you !

[@Pixelologist]

"Even with last episode's gut punch." "Don't remind me." [fade in....] *bloody sword*

[@Victoria-kv9oz]

That “King in the North” scene. Chills!

[@annafusco3763]

Also, something that I like to point out that not a lot of people think about… if Jon had gone south to fight, he would have put Robb in a tough position because Robb would have to decide if he was going to pardon him or if he would feel duty bound to behead him for desertion.

[@ashscott6068]

You've totally gotta do the Histories and Lore videos. There's one after each season, and they cover a lot of..well...history. And lore. And they don't contain spoilers for the next season.

[@ColinsComments]

Jaime didn't try to kill Ned, he just wanted to prove he could beat him in a fight. "Take him alive, kill his men."

[@MissyAmy88]

That is also why he punched the guard who wounded Ned. It was unfair.

[@DarkxSonxOfxDathomir]

Tywin doesn’t want Shae to go to court with Tyrion bc Tywins all about his family’s image. He’s sending his son to serve in his absence, if Tyrion brought a prostitute to be by his side you could see why that might tarnish his name. Also the blacksmiths apprentice was the same kid that Ned was questioning before he found out he was King Robert’s bastard

[@zelazbert]

Thanks for the episode, glad you guys have enjoyed it so far! It really is one of the best seasons of TV out there, isn't it? And it may not end up being your favorite season of Got. I'm eagerly awaiting your reactions for the next season!

[@sakifrahman1531]

You guys are me new favorite reactors! I subscribed & look forward to your uploads! ♥

[@Ernwaldo]

Great reaction as always! End of Season 1 and eager to experience your further journey. Thank you again for going to the trouble to bring these videos to this platform. Very well done. Hope all three of you are well. Take care.

[@Heathcoatman]

Haha, all three. I see what you did there 😉

[@Necrothep]

I always wondered if the witch's blood magic was part of the dragon's revival. Daenerys lost her brother, husband and child to somewhat give birth to the 3 dragons. "Only death can pay for life".

[@alwaysdriveing]

Instead of using dothraki healers who would obviously have plenty of knowledge of treating cuts. She turned to the witch that all the dothraki warned her against.

[@redviper6805]

Three episodes ago, Ser Jorah expressed his cynicism about dragons. “I believe what my eyes and ears report…who knows what really happened.” And now he has gotten a surprising report that changes everything

[@alexmckee4683]

Interesting that Tyrion gets tacit approval to kill Grand Maester Pycelle here "if he gets the slightest whiff of treason".

[@patricke0n]

Halfway through the season it was " im not wishing for the death of joffrey, he is just a kid after all". By the last episode its " i hope she kills that weasely...." Lol. The power of good storytelling.

[@0626jrp]

Love your reactions

[@AresBlack101]

The reason it feels like a satisfying end is because the first season is pretty much an exact adaptation of the first book. Season 1 is an adaptation of A Game of Thrones, Season 2 is an adaptation of A Clash of Kings, and Seasons 3+4 are an adaptation of A Storm of Swords. After that it gets messier, but the first four seasons are very faithful to the books, for the most part.

[@jerodast]

Even season 1 misses a few details that would've been nice, but it is VERY tight. Season 2 I would argue starts to slip already, which I think you can attribute to the expansion of narrators and wider scope in the books; the show just can't quite keep up.

[@Sandy-dd4le]

I'd say by season three the book and the series are completely different things. Season one is 99% the book, by season three its 50% at best.

[@infectshing4467]

Your reaction to the dragon reveal is priceless

[@valbonney2575]

Amazing how this gets under your skin, right? Glad you're enjoying it ... and I'm enjoying you enjoying it!!!

[@cyrilmeynier5688]

you wonder about Tywin's hatred fo Shae . there is more context to it in the books. Tywin's mother died when he was a kid. His father, Tytos, the started having low born mistresses. one of them became the semi-official lady of casterly rock, giving orders to servant, and wearing dresses and jewelry that belonged to tywin's mother. It was an ovbject of ridicule. Tywin kept a deep insecurity about low born women tarnishing the family's name

[@DavidAugustine-lc4cj]

How can I wait for next episode now! I binged watched EVERY season from Ep 1 straight thru to the end of final season! I only stopped watching to make food, shower and sleep at 5am! Then I was up and straight into next episode about 11am! Took me 8 days and nights to binge watch Every Season! I should be in Guinness World Records! Job? What Job!? 😂

Westworld (season 1), True Detective (S1), Boardwalk Empire and The Expanse should be added to your watch list.

[@USCFlash]

I'd add Deadwood to that very good list!!!!! (and also "The Wire" )

[@randallwilliamson3838]

Westworld season 1 was good, the other seasons sucked, so I dont know if getting involved in a series that sucks is a good idea.

[@lukebarton5075]

@magic A rather odd viewpoint. The series brought so very many, many new readers to the books and without a doubt only made them more popular. You could argue that with all the money Mr. Martin made as a result of the success of the series he now has less motivation to finish the books.

[@magicbrownie1357]

@@lukebarton5075 Artists create art for art's sake. If one stops making art because of financial success, it's the definition of selling out. It's been almost 14 years since his last book came out.

[@Sandy-dd4le]

Here endeth the relationship with the book, its pretty much fan fiction from here. I think the only plot points missing from the first book, are, Roz doesnt exist, and Balon was not murdered by Euron. Id say 99% of book one is in the first series, so its pretty galling that the producers decided to reduce that for each series, by the time we get to series three, the series and the book are completely different.

[@ccispahan7514]

@15:52: I find it hilarious that Pycelle is acting senile with Ros: he can 1/ pretend he is unsuccessfully looking for money to pay for her services (you will see that he loves the company of prostitutes and regularly tries to dodge payment) and 2/ gaslight her by boring her to death as he is fully aware that she is reporting back to Littlefinger and that every word he says is spied upon.

[@chrislittle2797]

Jaime isn't like Joffrey. He's ruthless and a killer, but he's not evil and vicious.

Naw, he's not evil or viscous, he only tossed an innocent child from a window. What insight could you have to take such a position...unless?

Re: only death can pay for life, it is exactly what happened on the funeral pyre: Daenerys offered the bodies of Drogo, her baby and the witch to make all 3 eggs hatch. She herself was reborn as the Mother of Dragons.

[@randallwilliamson3838]

well the saying is life pays for death, but drogo and the baby were already dead, so they could not have paid for life.

[@ccispahan7514]

@ No, you are confused. ‘Only death may pay for life’. This is what Mirri initially tells Daenerys about blood magic. The show repeats word for word their dialogue in the books. The last time we hear it is when Mirri is tied to the pyre and she says ‘You will not hear me scream’. Daenerys answers ‘ I will, but it is not your screams I want, only your life. I remember what you told me. Only death can pay for life.’ And the deaths connected to the dragons’ birth are indeed Drogo, Rhaego and Mirri’s. Cf the first book: "They had been born from her faith and her need, given life by the deaths of her husband and unborn son and the maegi Mirri Maz Duur" - Dany's thoughts about her dragons.

[@marsherjamiu447]

You will need to watch the game of thrones lore and history to understand everything about the GOT

[@otter3095]

👏🏻👍🏻

[@duckarse11]

[@lordofthevalley]

Why wouldn’t Tywin want Tyrion to bring Shae with him to Kings Landing? Maybe the whole story about how Tyrion married a whore had something to do with it? Maybe the fact that bringing a woman who isn’t your wife to court, let alone a whore, is something that the nobles of the realm would frown and look down upon? For Tywin, the honor, strength, and reputation of his house is paramount and having the acting Hand of the King publicly associating with prostitutes would not be a good look for House Lannister.

[@Vikassharma-mc6og]

How about that for some great writing? We go from the low of Ned Stark beheading to the high of baby dragons.

[@svenpoletka5236]

[@Bensonders]

"I feel so bad for her" Well I sit here, chuckle and remember my comment from 8 episodes ago.. "If you ever develop some sort of pity for Sansa in the later seasons, just remember this episode and that almost EVERYTHING that happened to the Starks is her fault." One little lie because she wanted to be liked by the evil sadistic kid ruined her whole family and her life.

[@riotinvictus]

Did you watch the show? It’s unfair to blame all of it on Sansa. She was a child and betrothed to Joffrey so of course she’s going to stay neutral. If we think about it the real person at fault was the person that ordered Arryn’s death. It was the domino effect that started the war between the Lannisters and Starks not Sansa telling a white lie

[@Bensonders]

@riotinvictus she didn't stay neutral, why are you lying? She told the truth to her father beforehand. But then she lied to the king. How is that neutral? Joffrey tried to kill Mycah and Arya. So Sansa betrayed her own family infront of the king. How is that neutral? Robert was a just king, not afraid to punish the guilty, even if its his "son". And the immediate consequences of Sansas actions are that her direwolf gets killed and Mycah gets brutally murdered and flayed.

[@leondaprofessor]

@@Bensonders Let’s use our brains. None of that would have happened with Sansa if Arryn wasn’t killed. Sansa was a summer child and manipulated by the court. She’s innocent no matter how much you hate her character

[@Glisern]

Jamie is not even remotely similar to Joffrey. Please try to put any issues you seem to have against him aside, and actually listen to what he says, not his taunts, but what he actually says. If you're just gonna go "ew jamie, shut him up" you're gonna miss a lot. And why should they kill him? they kill him, Tywin stops caring and kills every northerner he comes across without a thought, and sends his entire army against robb because now he doesn't have to worry about them killing his son, so now it's revenge.

[@jerodast]

Jamie is a complete asshole right now. Don't confuse later development with him currently. It's possible to listen and still hate him.

[@bernard6255]

What insight must you posses to defend Jaime of all people, and point out to these FIRST time reactors how they should feel abt a character? This is their journey, and surely they will know what they need to know when they need to know it whether or not they dissect every nuance of dialogue...just like you and everyone else who has ever watched GOT.

[@markharris1125]

An honourable tradition is observed, as the reactors completely forget who Yoren is. A new tradition is possibly born, as reactors somehow mix up Gendry with the very dead Ser Hugh. Nonetheless, very entertaining. I believe this is all done and dusted on your patreon, but a little rounding up and speculation would be really appreciated. What we like about reactions is for you to speculate about the next season, so we can sit back and watch your forecasts fall apart. 👿
