Editor's note: The below contains spoilers for House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 2. HBO's House of the Dragon courted controversy and backlash from fans for the incredibly long wait between seasons, but the hugely positive reaction to Season 3's debut episode is bringing people back in droves. The epic Battle of the Gullet alone has brought back the massive sense of scale that the Game of Thrones franchise is so famous and beloved for. Plus, the other major developments of Sheepstealer's reign of terror and Aemond ( Ewan Mitchell ) being an all-around creep with his mother set the stage for what could be a very chaotic penultimate chapter.
