“The iron throne cuts whoever it deems unworthy” Aegon: *hold me dragoncock whilst i slouch across this bich drowning in wine,just one nod away from putting both ends of me head through sword spikes.*
Season 1 set him up to be a rapist fool with mommy AND daddy issues. Season 2 aegon is just kinda funny and the shepherd scene was cute. He was trying to be a good king lol
@@tarab8747at this point he was being more kind because he saw all the people of KL cheer for him in the sept. Shows he could be good if he felt loved. That all was of course soon ruined after Daemon murdered his son
Aegon has become one of my favorite characters. He’s very much a gray character, has good qualities and bad. Believable. The actor playing him is doing great
@@gordongekko9742 Oh idk, r*ping people? Fathering bastards all over the city and watching them fight to the death? I feel sorry for him but he is pretty terrible.
Considering that Grover Tully was in favour of pledging to the Greens and how Vhagar did manage to show up to Rook’s Rest, listening to Aegon’s suggestion to have Vhagar burn the blockade and to secure the allegiance of Riverrun early on would’ve tipped the war immensely on the Green side early on and would’ve helped them avert much of what came later. If only they took him even remotely seriously rather than shutting him out.
I love love love the way Tom Glynn Carney plays Aegon II. In every scene his eyes convey Aegon’s insecurities and fears of being King. You can always see how Aegon is really unsure, and wishing he wasn’t sitting on the Iron Throne.
Tbf, this statement does fly in terms of the book where Aemond, albeit a full blown sociopath unlike the show, was in fact fiercely loyal to his family. Let’s not forget book Aegon wanted to have Aemond’s statue built in his honour.
I didn't realize aegon sneaked up behind jace and did a playful tap on his shoulder before the duel in the courtyard :))) he really did like his nephews when they were young. oh the tragedy...
Rhaenrya, Aegon, Aemond, Helaena, Jace, Luc, and Joffrey I truly believe would have been great friends if Alicent wasn’t whispering her poison in their ears.
@@sirfijoe450Rhaenrya is the heir. I honestly do not believe she would have even considered executing Aegon or Aemond. Aegon would have been free to live his party lifestyle and she likely would have installed Aemond on the war council to allow him to be a valiant knight and plan war which he would have been great at. So long as they swear loyalty and show it, I HIGHLY doubt she’d want to hurt them.

@@JamesDB2which was the Greens. They dealt the first blow by "accidentally" killing Rhaenyra's child, which was a full blown murder in the books. And Rhaenyra was far from incompetent she was taught by Viserys and practiced royal duties young, unlike Aegon. She was the named heir and that's that. Aegon was poisoned by his own men 6 months after being crowned. Rhaenyra was drowned with the Greens debt, and had to higher taxes and that made the common people angry. The only reason in the show that Aegon was crowned was because they hid Vizzy T's death and conspired before Rhaenyra could know and have her crown as the named and rightful heir.
@@Shannon-vv6rrRhaenyra wasn’t taught jackshit outside of the prophecy which does little to help her rule as it became glaringly apparent at her having round about zero clue as to what to do. In fact she showed signs of being politically inept early on when Lady Redwyne, a powerful ally to the crown, made a very valid point about Viserys’ poor judgement regarding the Stepstones and that there was in fact an unavoidable war there, she insulted the lady. A pattern later seen again in her and somehow even Baela when they both insulted an experienced voice making a valid point while offering no better alternative. Put Aegon in the same position and you’d all call him a fool for doing the same thing.

Poor Aegon. He never wanted to be king and Alicent basically forced it on him, calls him useless, then forfeits his life so she can skinny dip in the woods.
I think Aemond seriously considered the idea of starting a new life with his big brother in those fleeting moments but even so, his hands were tied by duty.
No he was considering letting Aegon go and flee, as Aegon said Aemonds more fit to rule. But same outcome yeah. He couldn't even though he said and knew he wasn't fit to be King and it should be him, if he wasn't bound by duty he would've let him go to live a free life elsewhere

Honestly aegon isn’t even an evil person a psychopath. Just was poorly raised and spoiled. I mean I’ve read some parts of the book and I think he gets more cruel because of his injury. But before that he actually wasn’t a bad king
nah he's awful. it's just that Joffrey Baratheon lowered the bar so far down into the abyss as to what makes an acceptable king that people see Aegon II and be like "ahh he's not so bad..." this is how Americans got into the presidential fiasco they are in today.
I actually like the sheep scene a lot because even when Otto said no aegon tried to bargain it for the guy. It show that aegon feels bad for telling him yes and then having to say no.
Because the writers are top notch character butchers at this point Alicent is just a written in character with imposter syndrome, Helaena doesn't care that her child was decapitated in front of her and Aemond who has made it a point to be dutiful and loyal to his family tried to murder his brother and king and let's not forget Rhaenyra the saint who can do no wrong. These character choices are all wrong and make absolutely no sense in changing them from actions in the books. I loved s1 and some of the first 4 episodes of s2 but afterwards it's just a mess thats getting harder and harder to watch as these changes are made why they made Aegon a rapist makes absolutely NO difference in the context of the story, team black would still hate him but they just have to really push this Patriarchy bs too so I don't know.
Season 2 didn't make me like Aegon more or less but it did feel like more of a real character. With flaws and traits alike, he feels like a real person.
When Rhaenrya sits on the throne: immediately gets cut and bleeds When Aegon lounges around on the throne all day like a lad: no cuts to be found. I’m sorry Blacksisters but the throne chooses the true heir.
Was just about to timestamp this, it's the moment his facade ends and true emotions/pain start to bleed thru (almost instantly).... he's miserable and wants to be loved like just about everyone else on earth.
I love the idea that Alicent REALLY thinks because she said Viserys' last wish was to make Aegon his heir, that's why they made him king. As if Otto hadn't been conspiring to put Aegon on the throne since the day he was born😅
08:07 that's just like his mother Alicent did when she was younger... nibbeling her fingers when she was nervous, and Aegon feels really uncomfortable in this situation, too, so he does the same... love such little details 😍 I'm not Team Green, but I'm Team Aegon 🥰💚
1:15 I love Viserys (but not as a father) but this might be legit the only good thing he did as father to his last four kids...making sure to correct Aegon before he could go full-Joffrey with that whole 'you dare put hands on me!' Still could've done a lot more to be a decent father but at least he gets one point.
Aegon was right in that one though. Legally, it's treason to put hands on a prince of the blood. Criston is his tutor so he gets a pass, but Harwin has no position at court except as Lyonel Strong's heir. It's part of why Lyonel is so pissed at Harwin afterwards.
Aegon liked his family. Gosh dang it man. Though I dont believe things would have changed because the Aemond incident was bound to happen. Once that happened then Aegon was completely against the blacks.
allicent was very toxic with aegon making him fear rhaenerya when rhaenerya didnt see him as a threat at all as long as he didnt try to take her throne.
How devastating is it to see that Aegon, Haelena and the rest of Rhaenyra's children were really close, bonded and had no hatred for each other. Funny how the adults and when I say the adults I meant the hightowers, manipulated them into thinking Rhaenyra would want them dead.
@@vizalloteafilter but Daemon wouldn't have a problem with them if they weren't next in line for the throne, it was all Otto's fault for trying to manipulate things inside the council that made Aegon as heir possible. Now that Aegon is king, Otto regretted everything the moment he mentioned Viserys.
6:15 Honestly, I’m not sure she does. Where the heck was she when he was a mess after his son’s death? Why isn’t she nursing him back to health in stead of Larys? Why is she giving him up to Rhaenyra at the end of S2? Somehow that spider Larys has been a better mother to Aegon than Alicent has.
If only her mother wouldn't be such an ass towards him and would actually look at him as her son and not the fruits of her sacrifices. Casualty of bad parenting.
3:46 All of these people calling Aegon a good father always seem to forget about this scene. His kids have been born. Here he is ready and willing to abandon them.
Let's not forget he is running away from the duties of being a king. Being forced to usurp the throne. And we know how badly this turned out for him. Even as far as his mother agreeing to his public execution. When the bar is so low for parents in westeros, when Viserys never even acknowledging his other kids and Alicent hitting and psychologically terrorizing Aegon since he was a child only to agree to have him publicly executed in the end, i would say Aegon trying to be a good dad to him makes him better than his uncle or father. And his mother too.
@@fayedunaway8 Running away from the duties of kingship and abandoning your kids aren't mutually exclusive. His preferred choice was to run. Let's also not forget Aegon has other "bastard" children in Kingslanding he pretends don't exist? We don't get a whole lot of information regarding Viserys and five year old Aegon (same age as Aegon's son when he dies) interactions so there's really no room to speculate and how good a father Viserys was when comparing him to Aegon's treatment of his five year old. We know Aegon raped one of his maids and enjoyed watching orphans fight so maybe it isn't much of a mystery as to why Viserys didn't like him. Better father than Viserys? Doubt it. A good father? Absolutely not.
@@spikesgun8288 Do you need written confirmation from the director or something? They show a little kid with platinum blonde hair sitting in the corner during the orphan fight scene in season 1. It's pretty obvious the show is telling you he has plenty of other kids (bastards) roaming around
Poor guy. Used as a pawn by his mother and grandfather nearly all his life and what does he get for it? Ends up a half burnt cripple with all of his siblings dead, his son dead and remembered poorly in the history books.
i love this show, i just hate how they play the reigns of castamere in house of the dragon. it should only we played in game of thrones as that song was written about tywin lanister and his victory over another house. and i hate that im such a fan that i know that 🤣
Calm down it’s not that deep. That song is generally associated with the Lannisters for the general audience, using it isn’t a big deal to create the atmosphere.
@@bonjouritsready To me, it is a big deal bc the song is about characters that dont exist yet, is Heleana/bran/3er in charge of the soundtrack? If you are aware of game of thrones and the history of the song it takes you out of the scene. So yeah…kinda a big deal when you are trying to create an immersive world
Aegon would have never been touched by Rhaenyra if she ruled. Family met power for the Targaryens. Especially more Targaryens more close to full blood.
@@paulnewton4303 Well, I'm only talking about Aegon and Rhaenyra, just them. In the end, Rhaenyra's son married his daughter. In the end, everything was a waste. That's why I put ""won"". The dance of dragons finished when Rhaenyra died.
@@Loki-g3kI mean I think that as a king, Aegon would have better intentions but as a person, he is worse. More sadistic like he literally endorses and watches little kids kill eachother
I don't think that scene was meant to portray Aegon's heart for the common people, more to show he wants to be liked and popular, so basically your average impressionable teenager

Let's also not forget Aegon has other "bastard" children in Kingslanding he pretends don't exist? We don't get a whole lot of information regarding Viserys and five year old Aegon (same age as Aegon's son when he dies) interactions so there's really no room to speculate and how good a father Viserys was when comparing him to Aegon's treatment of his five year old. We know Aegon raped one of his maids and enjoyed watching orphans fight so maybe it isn't much of a mystery as to why Viserys didn't like him. Better father than Viserys? Doubt it. A good father? Absolutely not.
@@saedrix9807never been confirmed they’re his
@@spikesgun8288 Do you need written confirmation from the director or something? They show a little kid with platinum blonde hair sitting in the corner during the orphan fight scene in season 1. It's pretty obvious the show is telling you he has plenty of other kids (bastards) roaming around
What a cutiee 😂❤
Lmao, Harwin was not subtle AT ALL.
he is a joke.. its funny to watch😂
Motherly love
The actor is quite good. I hate his smug face in certain scenes. Well done sir 👏👏👏
God I hate Cole so much. I guess it speaks to how good of an actor he is. Also i wish young aegon didnt look so different than older aegon
Poor guy. Used as a pawn by his mother and grandfather nearly all his life and what does he get for it? Ends up a half burnt cripple with all of his siblings dead, his son dead and remembered poorly in the history books.
Oh god please keep Tom as aegon for the rest of house of the dragon, please don’t change the actor for aegon like you did with all the others
Alicient deserved a Joffrey as son
God's no.
That's Aemond
Still a better ruler than rhaenyra
i love this show, i just hate how they play the reigns of castamere in house of the dragon. it should only we played in game of thrones as that song was written about tywin lanister and his victory over another house. and i hate that im such a fan that i know that 🤣
Calm down it’s not that deep. That song is generally associated with the Lannisters for the general audience, using it isn’t a big deal to create the atmosphere.
@@bonjouritsready To me, it is a big deal bc the song is about characters that dont exist yet, is Heleana/bran/3er in charge of the soundtrack? If you are aware of game of thrones and the history of the song it takes you out of the scene. So yeah…kinda a big deal when you are trying to create an immersive world
@@bonjouritsready lol everything with a song of ice and fire is that deep.
Im lost would aemmmond be the first born male so wouldn't he become king???
Aemond is 16, and Aegon is around 18-19 so Aegon is older :)
They should have Aegon go...i feel so bad for him..and i HATE Criston cole
Aegon would have never been touched by Rhaenyra if she ruled. Family met power for the Targaryens. Especially more Targaryens more close to full blood.
People blame alicent are blind to Otto and his bullshit.
Putting Aegon aside, man I hate Alicent
Aegon isn't gonna last long.
What do you mean? He "won" the Dance of Dragons
@@moonlightlily-p7u no he didn't. All his children and family died. You win by your children.
@@paulnewton4303 Well, I'm only talking about Aegon and Rhaenyra, just them. In the end, Rhaenyra's son married his daughter. In the end, everything was a waste. That's why I put ""won"". The dance of dragons finished when Rhaenyra died.
He will survive the dragon fire
He's the last survivor
I forgot how much of an awful person Aegon was. This season he seemed more like a stupid goofball
Game of thrones, commercialised.
Too bad, this shoiw is woke, all these blacks in a medieval context it s totaly ridiculous.
So, there were live dragons in medieval times?😂
@@rk02 No brain, no culture... In medieval times, people believed in magic. The context is still FEODAL.
@@rk02 In middle age People believed in magic, do you understand ?
@@DavidGrush Yeah magic, but no black people. Got it👍🏽
@@rk02 Not the same. Blacks don t belong to this cultural context. Wokeness shit destroyed the show, too bad
He has a kind heart for common people, I can see he really wants to help them with their problems 🤍
He really would have been a good king so would Rhaenyra a good queen but Viserys didn’t do a good job imo
After seeing episode 5, it seems Aegon was better option than Aemond. At least he didn't shut the gates.
@@Loki-g3kI mean I think that as a king, Aegon would have better intentions but as a person, he is worse. More sadistic like he literally endorses and watches little kids kill eachother
I don't think that scene was meant to portray Aegon's heart for the common people, more to show he wants to be liked and popular, so basically your average impressionable teenager
@vothien2705 It quite understandable because he is getting that love from his family.
The only Hightower 🟢🟢 I like is Aegon
He's not a Hightower, he's a Targaryen 🔥
Gwayne isn't too bad. At least he mixes it up with Criston.
Nah he is more Targaryen than any other youngsters in his family along with Haelena............Ameond is a true Hightower.
Daeron ?
