“House of the Dragon” is a great companion to “Game of Thrones,” but which show had the strongest start? For this versus battle, we’re looking at the first season of the original George R. R. Martin fantasy HBO series, “Game of Thrones” and how its prequel show’s inaugural season stacks up against it. Spoilers for both shows, so be forewarned. We’ll be comparing each show in categories like Characters, Story, Twists & Shocks, and more! If you think we chose the wrong show to sit on the Iron Throne, get down in the comments and be “the first of your name” to tell us why we’re wrong.

I think Got because it was a bit of everything it had drama, supernatural elements, comedy, suspense.
HOTD is just another RINGS OF POWER, getting carried by the rep of GOT , you can skip all the way to season 2 episode 4 from season 1 finally , and miss nothing
House of the dragon is better.
Game Of Thrones has 78 episodes following several families with several stories going on and so far House Of The Dragon has filmed 20 episodes (10 episodes for this video) which concentrates on the Targaryen family so GOT is going to win the characters chapter. In fact you can’t compare one season of HOTD to 8 seasons of GOT as it’s unfair as GOT has had 8yrs to play out over getting fans more invested in the characters and story. It’s almost like having a round called “number of dragons” in which it would clearly benefit HOTD series
I just really like how game of thrones was paced. Feels like house of the dragon is at the same pace as season 8 of GoT
House of the dragon is far fr superior to game of thrones already and its just 2 seasons in.
Didn’t read the books. Don’t plan on reading the books. The shows are all there is. Hence “adaptation” is not that important a category for me. “Kings” did not feel much like an important category either. I agree Viserys was a better king (more kind, wise, reasonable, etc). It doesn’t mean it makes HOTD a better show. My overall ranking : GOT S1 is far superior to HOTD S1, which in turn is much better than GOT S8
I felt that 'House Of Dragon' cast is far inferior then 'Game Of Throne'. Be it looks, dialogue delivery or makeup. I prefer to watch the GOT again than HOD.
Game of throne is way better charachter building actors story drama everything im watching house of the dragon and i dont feel nothing im forcing my self meybe will change something but its not.
