    Rings of Power has some nice shoots yes, but they are mostly ruined by the bad editing and fast cuts.

    Rings of Power is watchable but there isn't a single worthwhile metric by which it beats House of the Dragon - acting, script, characters, plot, are all vastly superior in HOD.

    ROP has some lovely visuals, but they can't make a show, and they don't. Again, watchable, but considering what it should have been, it's very disappointing.

    HOD, meanwhile, I expected nothing given the disgracefully bad final season of GOT, but it's very solid - up there with maybe the fifth and sixth season of GOT, though falls short of the incredible S1-4.

    Agree it's up there with Seasons 5 and 6, it's hard to beat Seasons 1-3 or 4.

    I don't enjoy HOTD at all, I really couldn't care less about any of the characters. If it wasn't a GOT spin off it would be canceled already.

    ROP is better. Visually it's stunning and while it's slow moving and let down by poor dialogue at times, overall it's a good show. I think it would judged in a different light if it wasn't so expensive and based on much better source material. But as a stand alone TV show I think its decent.

    RoP wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I found the first half of it fairly enjoyable, then it starts to fall apart a bit, but overall the lore butchering is an unforgivable crime.

    HotD was superb and was better than RoP on every level.

    I didn't like the last episode of HOTD, i see no way how they would let Otto go back to kings landing? The dragon fight was ridiculous too and also I don't get why Rhaenyra didn't search for allies before her father died.
