Fans of Game of Thrones have been impatiently awaiting the release of the highly anticipated prequel, House Of The Dragon. The popular fantasy series is set hundreds of years before the show, which features actors including Matt Smith (who received a blow to the face while filming). Fans have been patiently waiting ever since the first trailer debuted in May. It’s lucky that time is running out because the early reviews are so positive.
On August 21, HBO Max in the USA is scheduled to broadcast House of the Dragon. (Avoid giving away any spoilers!) In the UK, we must wait an extra day. on August 22 at 2 a.m., and the pilot will follow.
There are a few ways you can watch, which is a blessing. The first season is aired on Sky Atlantic. It will also be offered as part of the Entertainment package on NOW TV if you don’t have Sky. Even though it costs £9.99 per month, they frequently offer free trials or other incentives to entice new subscribers.
In total, there will be 10 episodes, which will be made available each week. The inability to binge-watch the entire collection at once will no doubt irritate impatient viewers.

If you have a Sky Glass TV or Sky Q, Sky have introduced a fun way to request the show with voice commands. Rather than aimlessly scrolling, say one of these phrases and you’ll see the episode:
“Dreams didn’t make us kings, dragons did”
“History doesn’t remember blood. It remembers names”
“Gods, kings, fire, and blood”
“House of Targaryen”
“Dragon stone”
“Fire will reign”
“Dragons are coming”
Sky is also encouraging keen fans to use the #2amclub hashtag for sharing their excitement if they’re staying up to watch it immediately.
