It's criminal that this man hasn't won an award for his role as King Viserys yet

[@charlesottowilliamwade5328]

I thought he had

[@stephenstapleton7671]

Crazy honestly he was great

[@PRubin-rh4sr]

No award deserves Paddy. Hes too good.

[@lesliemcmillan2971]

He deserved the awards. I'm mad he didn't get them.

[@NPA1001]

He’s such a gentle thoughtful and unassuming man i don’t think awards really concern him.. he Just enjoys the work and process

[@jamesg872]

His performance in House of the Dragon was stellar. Hopefully some awards coming his way.

[@bosmith1820]

and he gets to bang emily carey, not a bad job.

[@luciferrussell6874]

It's good when the author says an actor far exceeded the character he had created

[@synkthestorm22]

Gosh, man...the way Paddy made me sob during his final speech at the dinner scene, both physically and emotionally unmasking himself and begging his family to make amends so he could die peacefully... George R. R. Martin was absolutely right when he said Paddy's portrayal of Viserys made him want to revisit and maybe even rewrite the character due to the depth he brought to him, a depth that wasn't in Fire and Blood.

[@lester44444]

He gave viserys so much warmth and vulnerability 😭😭 definitely going to be missing that sorely in the next season

[@Allyourbase1990]

I wish he stayed king the whole time . The best characters always die

[@Eye_See_U]

He absolutely smashed that character and most definitely that death scene and episode. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@pmishra8591]

He should've atleast been nominated for an Emmy

[@Allyourbase1990]

He was easily one of my favorite characters . I think he’s an incredible actor

[@Lukkern]

His performance as Viserys seriously is among the best acting i've ever seen in both tv and film. I seriously struggle to think of other performances that's as good or better.

[@jimmygreer2140]

He absolutely steals the show of season 1. And it's a really interesting watch. The more his character decays the more his acting becomes amazing. And to say he steals the show is a true testament. There are several really powerful actors involved with that project. They all get their moment to shine but Paddy was the most consistently fantastic.

[@bosmith1820]

And you know he is having a good time when he is all over emily carey.

[@mikerusso3525]

Paddy's acting in that episode of House of Dragon was absolutely AMAZING!!!

[@ivanskirchak4935]

He is a splendid actor. Definitely my favorite character.

[@AafkeKastelijn]

I can relate so hard on this. My dad passed away of lungcancer 5 years ago and the way Paddy looked on hotd really freaked me out. It was like watching my dad die all over again. They looked the same, the teeth, the pale face, and the way he was breathing. My dad wanted to die the natural way, but trust me, I wish he didn't...

[@ewan348]

Brilliant Actor....should have an Emmy for that performance.

[@jeffcordova9633]

Love paddy, his band riding the low, his performance As Viserys…. Hot fuzz keep doing a great job mate

[@bansheeofinisheerin]

“You’ve got a moustache” “I know”

[@rickpaton7538]

Rich is a truly great interviewer. Allows the guest room to really tell their story.

[@yeayeawhatevasureokayy]

Dead Man's Shoes.....he was brilliant in that

[@lalruatpuiikhiangte7030]

He was soooo good in HOD ❤

[@celestialnubian]

After the GOT ending everyone was so skeptical of revisiting this material. Somehow HBO came roaring back and restored Game Of Thrones' TV luster in just 10 weeks. Bravo!

[@bosmith1820]

lol, it was pretty slow mate. Hopefully season 2 picks it up.

[@erosion271]

@@bosmith1820 make want to get an adhd diagnosis then. Apart from 1 episode the pacing was fine

[@bosmith1820]

@@erosion271 Hey if you like slow boring tv shows that is your right. Not ADHD, but life is awesome and if you don't entertain me I'll do other things. Too much cool stuff to do in this world.

[@erosion271]

@@bosmith1820 Slow, boring TV? Or maybe you just have the attention span of a goldfish? I have ADHD, everything is slow to me at times in my head. But I liked House of the Dragon and found zero pacing issues outside of one episode. So that tells me you just can't sit still. But you're right, the world is cool.

[@bosmith1820]

@@erosion271 I love that use that as an insult. Yeah sorry I'm not watching boring bland tv. I loved GOT(other than the last season) but HoD was a bore. Saying I can't sit still isn't an insult. I have an active lifestyle so yeah if you can't entertain me, I'll go outside and do more entertaining things.

[@gilfista5178]

Such a great actor 🤙🏽great sense of humor

[@LS-kg6my]

I love this man! Such a brilliant actor and a lovely human being ❤❤❤❤❤

[@lostboy7191]

Deadmans shoes wascmy favorite film with Considine, his acting just blew me away. That film also did not get enough credit it was a film that changed your perception.

[@projekt679]

He should.. He’s a brilliant actor.

[@stancexpunks]

He was perfect as Viserys. He definitely had that kind, likeable quality about him.

[@slkknifelover]

He's so so good in the show!!

[@reneskyggebjerg2092]

Fantastic performance! Highlight of the show for me.

[@bexnelson3037]

I love his work, from girl with all of the gift to tyrannosaurus. I hope he continues, can’t wait to see more.

[@BatmanHQYT]

One of the best performances across all of GOT.

[@kevinhart8339]

Three Strong Boys...

[@HuskyHops]

Best scene of the series

[@thefestooner]

The Ferryman. Jez Butterworth. Stunning piece of theatre.

[@anaarrosio]

I am gonna miss him

[@ZitiPatrol]

King Viserys and Jon Snow aka Aegon IV are the two true Targarayans that know between balance and hope.

[@davidmasters8601]

1:03 wow, bless him

[@korindoseng4953]

He should watch peaky blinders he will hate him self forever🤣🤣🤣

[@minxharlette2740]

Hes so hot

[@erosion271]

Robbed of an emmy. Meanwhile Succession a show no one watches has half its cast nominated. Critics man so snobby to genre productions.

[@hypello9534]

Agree 100%

[@badhairday_247]

I can’t watch him in it either because it’s such a load of crap.
