This week we decided to close out Season 2 of House Of The Dragon by bringing back our good friend Anna Stone from Stone's Top Tens. Join us as we talk about the best and the worst of this season, and what we hope to see moving forward!

On this episode of Small Screen Couch Commentary, Alex and Billy dive deep into the epic events of House of the Dragon Season 2, Episode 8, titled "The Queen Who Ever Was." A finale that is packed with drama, some humor, and perhaps leaving us with more questions than we thought we would have at this point.

The episode kicks off with Aemond’s controversial alliance with the Triarchy, negotiated by Tyland Lannister, who has a wild encounter with their pirate admiral, Lohar. Things get muddy—literally—with a hilarious mud-wrestling challenge, but Tyland secures the alliance. Meanwhile, Aemond is spiraling, torching Sharp Point in a fit of rage after his retreat from Dragonstone. Larys Strong warns Aegon, suggesting a hasty escape before his brother returns. Alicent tries to figure out what lies in own future and she considers fleeing with Helaena but remains stuck between protecting her family and Aemond’s war path.

On Dragonstone, Rhaenyra and her new dragonriders prepare for what is sure to be a bold and bloody war. Meanwhile, Daemon is deep in Harrenhal politics, but his visions of the future, guided by Alys Rivers, transform his perspective on the war and his loyalty to Rhaenyra.

The episode’s emotional core hits when Alicent and Rhaenyra meet again, their relationship strained by war and loss. The two women face hard choices, knowing their next moves may doom their families. With dragonriders ready for battle and armies mobilizing, the stage is set for the next deadly phase of the Dance of the Dragons.

Tune in as Alex and Billy break it all down with insight and bold predictions on Small Screen Couch Commentary!

On this week's Small Screen Couch Commentary, Alex and Billy break down House of the Dragon Season 2, Episode 7, titled "The Red Sowing." Get ready for dragons and drama as we dive into the chaos.

In King's Landing, Alicent is recovering from her injury from last episode’s riot and taking a “mental health day” by camping in the Kingswood, while back at the Red Keep, Aegon struggles through painful physical therapy after his injuries at Rook’s Rest. Meanwhile, Aemond is taking command, sending some of Aegon’s Whitecloak friends to the Wall and plotting his next moves with Larys Strong.

On Dragonstone, Rhaenyra deals with internal strife as she auditions new dragonriders to strengthen her forces. Addam Velaryon bonds with Seasmoke, but her son Jace is uneasy, feeling threatened by the addition of new riders. Rhaenyra’s plan to recruit Targaryen bastards to claim unclaimed dragons leads to the fiery and deadly “Red Sowing” ceremony, where many perish attempting to bond with the dragons. Hugh the Hammer makes an impression, winning over the mighty Vermithor, while Ulf the White manages to claim Silverwing in a lucky encounter.

As Aemond takes to the skies on Vhagar to investigate the growing dragon activity around Dragonstone, he realizes that Rhaenyra now has a formidable number of dragons—and things are heating up for the coming war. Alex and Billy give their take on the episode’s big moments, speculate on what’s next for the show, and offer their usual blend of witty banter and fiery insights.

On this week’s Small Screen Couch Commentary, Alex and Billy tackle House of the Dragon Season 2, Episode 6, titled "Smallfolk" The drama in King’s Landing reaches a boiling point as Aemond steps into his role as prince regent, but things don’t go smoothly. While Aemond has bold plans—like aligning with the shady Triarchy—the Lannisters are not too keen on advancing without Vhagar’s help, much to Aemond’s annoyance.

At the small council, Aemond asserts his authority, even dangling the coveted Hand of the King position in front of Larys Strong, only to summon a former hand who he believes will help guide him during this time of uncertainty. Meanwhile, Alicent tries to maintain control, but Aemond isn't having it, signaling that her influence on the council is waning.

Things get chaotic when Alicent and Helaena are caught in a riot, with angry smallfolk shouting for Queen Rhaenyra as they scramble for food and resources. The tension between the crown and the people of King’s Landing is palpable, and it's only getting worse.

On Dragonstone, Rhaenyra is pushing for new dragonriders to solidify her power, but it’s a risky move. Ser Steffon Darklyn tries to bond with Seasmoke, but things take a fiery turn, leaving Dragonstone and Team Black scrambling to figure out their next move.

Daemon, struggling with visions of his past and grappling with his mental state, is still at Harrenhal, where Alys Rivers is there to remind him that he’s just another pawn in the game of power.

Tune in to Small Screen Couch Commentary for Alex and Billy's hilarious take on the drama, power moves, and dragon chaos. It's a breakdown full of fiery insights and a few laughs!

Better late than never folks! On this episode of Small Screen Couch Commentary, Alex and Billy dive deep into The Boys Season 4, Episode 8, aptly titled "Season Four Finale" Buckle up, because this one’s filled with twists, shocking moments, and the usual dark humor that only The Boys can deliver.

The episode kicks off with a VNN broadcast where we learn that A-Train’s new movie has been canceled, much to Ashley’s delight as a tax write-off. The tone quickly shifts as Firecracker, The Deep, and Black Noir star in a cringeworthy "#AllLivesMatter" PSA, setting the stage for the madness to come. The real chaos starts with Hughie unknowingly proposing to a shape-shifting Supe disguised as Annie—a proposal that takes an awkward turn once the Shifter's disguise starts falling apart.

Meanwhile, Butcher faces a personal crisis in the hospital as he's visited by a hallucination of Kessler urging him to unleash the Supe-killing virus. Homelander, ever the drama king, finds a photo of Butcher and Becca in Ryan’s backpack, triggering a laser-fueled tantrum that sends Ryan running.

As the political stakes rise, Homelander drops a bombshell live on Firecracker's show by outing VP-elect Neuman as a Supe. The fallout is swift, leading to a scramble among The Boys to gather dirt on Neuman, only to find their evidence mysteriously gone. The real Annie, still chained up, breaks free in time for a brutal showdown with her shape-shifting doppelgänger, saving Hughie and the team in the process.

In true The Boys fashion, the episode ramps up with twists, turns, violence and mayhem. Things end with us all wondering the fate of everyone, good and bad as well as not being sure to feel about Butcher's actions. It is sad that it is over, for now.
