We’re currently super lucky to have three epic shows running simultaneously. I’m sure or at least hoping most of you are watching them, if not you’re missing out big time!
The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power
First up is the new LOTR series on Amazon Prime Video. I used to be a massive fan of the movies and I remember when the original ones came out I refused to watch them until the extended versions came out on DVD. I even watched the original 1978 animated movie back in the 90s before I even knew what it was. But that was a long time ago and I was much younger so I wasn’t sure I’d still be into it. Turns out I am and this new series on Amazon is making me want to go back and binge-watch everything previously released again. The only downside is the first season is only 8 episodes which feels extremely short since there is so much more I want to see happen.
House of the Dragon
After Game of Thrones, the amount of pressure that must have been on the House of the Dragon team to deliver must have been as epic as the show itself. But, they’ve succeeded and House of the Dragon is in my opinion on the same level as GOT right out the door. It’s basically the same show, it uses the same formula, the same brutality, it still has lots of noble houses which I can never keep track of, and it even has the same opening intro score. House of the Dragon is currently streaming weekly on HBO Max.
Andor
Finally, the third show currently running and you should be watching is Andor, the new Star Wars series. This is the least Star Wars Star Wars from all the new shows that have come out so far. It doesn’t feel very Disney and I think that’s one of the main reasons that I like it so far, I don’t know where it’s going. While The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett were great, they felt too similar, even Obi-Wan Kenobi, I knew who the heroes were and that they were going to kick everyone’s ass. Andor has a completely different feel, kinda like how the movie Joker felt so different from the previous Batmans. Andor is streaming on Disney+.
So we have a new Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and Star Wars all streaming at the same time, crazy!

Yes I’m loving it I’m watching the same shows as you as well as Rick and Morty and She-Hulk (lol).
It gets confusing sometimes watching both TROP and HOTD
What’s confusing is watching The Kardashians, Kim looks like a Targaryen
I think the hot dude is Sauron.
I’m only watching the show cause of him and the Puerto Rican elf who is the most beautiful elf ever.
My favourite type of post. Thank you.
-Rings of power: I’ve been waiting for this show since the announcement in 2018. I just wish the show is more epic. Can’t wait for the finale. I’m a big middle-earth fan.
-House of dragon is a good drama show with nice twists. The dragons are a nice addition.
-Andor exceeded my expectations. Smart writing with AMAZING cinematography. Maybe my favourite show of 2022 so far.
lol at your HOD review, i can’t tell if you’re serious or being sarcastic “the dragons are a nice addition” 😛
