As we reach the mid-point of Season 3 of House of the Dragon, the plot has thickened across multiple fronts. Ormund Hightower has seized control of Tumbleton. As Rhaenyra weighs her options, Aegon's journey hits rock bottom, Cole decides to fight on without the aid of any dragons, Daeron wrestles with being a Targaryen molded through Hightower upbringing, Daemon makes a stunning discovery (as well as a massive decision), and Alicent makes a shocking discovery of her own. All of it has the potential to make the back half of Season 3 even more explosive than the first half was...and that is saying something.

House of the Dragon Season 3 just made one of its biggest departures yet from George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood, cutting the fan-favorite dragonseed Nettles entirely and folding her role into Rhaena Targaryen. In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down who Nettles is in the books, how she claims the wild dragon Sheepstealer, her complicated relationship with Daemon Targaryen, and why showrunner Ryan Condal chose to merge her arc with Rhaena's instead of adapting her directly. We also dig into what this change means for Daemon's redemption arc going forward, and whether the show just skipped past some of the richest material in the source text.**Timestamps**- 0:00 Intro, the big change to House of the Dragon- 0:12 Who is Nettles in the books- 0:28 The showrunner's reasoning for replacing her with Rhaena- 0:49 The Battle of the Gullet aftermath- 1:03 Daemon takes Nettles in as a companion- 1:26 Rhaenyra's paranoia and the hit on Nettles- 1:48 Nettles' fate in the Vale- 2:20 What this means for Daemon's redemption arc- 2:36 Final thoughts and wrap up**Key Takeaways**- Nettles is a lowborn dragonseed who claims the wild dragon Sheepstealer by feeding it dead sheep daily until it trusts her- Showrunner Ryan Condal chose to give her arc to Rhaena Targaryen to keep the story centered on the Targaryen family- Unlike Rhaena in the show, book Nettles was not responsible for Jace's death and fought valiantly in the Battle of the Gullet- Daemon takes Nettles in afterward, teaching her the ways of court, and the book leaves it ambiguous whether their bond is romantic or fatherly- Rhaenyra grows paranoid and puts a bounty on Nettles, forcing Daemon to help her flee- The show's choice to skip this material may cost us the redemption arc for Daemon that the book's ending sets up**Memorable Quotes**"She's a fighter, you know, she grew up tough. She claims Sheepstealer by feeding him dead sheep every day until the dragon trusts her.""Nettles is a great character I think really deserved to be in the show, but I understand making Rhaena more substantial.""He has not been a good dad. He's a terrible dad."**Got Thoughts on This Change?**Do you think replacing Nettles with Rhaena was the right call, or should HBO have found a way to keep both characters?

Ormund Hightower finally shows his hand, and it's worse than anyone at Dragonstone imagined. In this clip from our Episode 4 watchalong, Justin breaks down the quiet, unnerving hour that turns House of the Dragon's newest villain loose.

It's a big episode for the lore Maesters. Ser A.Ron and King Jimherys discuss the differences between raising a Hightower and raising a Targaryen.

Jason and Rosie break down House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 4, and make the case that Ormund Hightower is a different kind of villain: a self-styled refined gentleman with a modern politician's instinct for crisis PR.. They also dig into what they see as the real flaw undermining Rhaenyra's reign: an inability to understand what ordinary people actually want, from her plan to scapegoat a Master of Coin to her blindness toward what's motivating Ulf and Hugh. Plus, a rotting Sunfyre as a symbol of collapsing Targaryen exceptionalism, and how this season's Harrenhal storyline diverges from George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood.

House of the Dragon S3E3 Review: SPOILER ALERT Rhaenyra has King's Landing… but she might also be losing her mind. This week on Thumb War, we break down House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 3, aka what Rachel calls Rhaenyra's Unraveling. The Red Keep is haunted, the music is screaming, everyone is starving, Corlys is furious, Daemon wants to burn the world down, and Rhaenyra decides the best way to win over the nobles is to serve them a beautiful feast of rats. Rachel loved the episode's descent into Targaryen madness. Jason thinks the show keeps cutting away from the exact moments we need to see — especially when dragons are involved. We get into the Ormund Hightower standoff, Alicent and Rhaenyra's weird little soul connection, whether Team Black is falling apart, and why someone needs to make a Downton Abbey-style House of the Dragon episode set entirely in the Red Keep kitchen. Full spoiler recap is up now.

Jason and Rachel are back in Westeros for a spoiler-filled recap and review of House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 1. The premiere picks up with the Dance of Dragons fully igniting: the Battle of the Gullet, Jace making reckless choices, Rhaenyra being sidelined, Baela and Rhaena facing dragon-sized consequences, Criston Cole seeing the true horror of the war, Aegon and Larys fleeing King's Landing, and Aemond becoming even more unsettling. We talk Team Black, Team Green, Winter Wolves, Sheepstealer, Alicent, Daemon, the Hightowers, Targaryen dysfunction, and why this episode's main lesson is that young people should maybe not be allowed to make war decisions.

Slowly sinking into the sea filled with arrows This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl are talking toys, traps, webs, and dragons. Darryl gives a two-minute quick recap of Toy Story 5, the guys dig into Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, wrap up more noir weirdness with Spider-Noir, and return to Westeros for the fiery season premiere of House of the Dragon. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Toy Story 5: 7:54 Ready or Not 2: Here I Come: 13:57 Spider-Noir: 30:00 House of the Dragon: 47:07 Toy Story 5 Release Date: June 19, 2026 Runtime: 102 minutes Director: Andrew Stanton Co-Director: Kenna Harris Writers: Andrew Stanton and Kenna Harris Story By: Andrew Stanton Studio: Pixar Animation Studios Distributor: Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Summary: The toys are back, but this time playtime has a new enemy: technology. Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the rest of the gang find themselves challenged by Lilypad, a frog-themed smart tablet that pulls Bonnie's attention away from the toys and forces them to confront whether old-school imagination can survive in a screen-first world. Darryl gives the quick two-minute recap, but the big question is simple: does Pixar still have the emotional pull, or is this franchise finally running on low battery? Main Voice Cast: Tom Hanks as Woody Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear Joan Cusack as Jessie Greta Lee as Lilypad Conan O'Brien as Smarty Pants Tony Hale Craig Robinson Shelby Rabara Mykal-Michelle Harris Matty Matheson John Ratzenberger Wallace Shawn Annie Potts Keanu Reeves Alan Cumming Production Notes: Toy Story 5 is directed by longtime Pixar veteran Andrew Stanton, co-directed by Kenna Harris, and scored by Randy Newman, returning to the franchise for his fifth Toy Story feature. The film's big hook is “Toy meets Tech,” using a tablet character as the new threat to traditional play. Rating Out of 10, Still Falling with Style After All These Years Brian: DNW Darryl: 6.3/10 Ready or Not 2: Here I Come Release Date: March 20, 2026 Runtime: 108 minutes Directors: Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett Writers: Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy Studios: Vinson Films, Mythology Entertainment, and Radio Silence Distributor: Searchlight Pictures Summary: Moments after surviving the nightmare of the Le Domas family, Grace discovers that the game was never really over. This time, she is pulled into a larger and even more dangerous power structure, with her estranged sister Faith dragged into the chaos beside her. Grace has one chance to survive, keep Faith alive, and claim the High Seat of a shadowy council that controls the world, while four rival families hunt her for the throne. Main Cast: Samara Weaving as Grace MacCaullay Kathryn Newton as Faith MacCaullay Sarah Michelle Gellar as Ursula Danforth Shawn Hatosy as Titus Danforth Néstor Carbonell as Ignacio El Caido David Cronenberg as Chester Danforth Elijah Wood as the Lawyer Kevin Durand as Bill Wilkinson Olivia Cheng as Wan Chen Xing Varun Saranga as Madhu Rajan Daniel Beirne as Kip Danforth Production Notes: Ready or Not 2: Here I Come reunites directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett with writers Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy, expanding the original film's class-war horror-comedy into a bigger, bloodier mythology of wealthy families, ritual games, and supernatural power. Rating Out of 10, Two Sisters Take on the Devil and His Minions with the Power of Spite Brian: 6.66/10 Darryl: 6/10 Spider-Noir (Prime Video) Spider-Noir, Episodes 7 and 8 Episode 7 Title: Nobody's Hero Episode 8 Title: Finale title not yet confirmed in available listings Release Window: Season 1 released in 2026 Creator: Oren Uziel Developed By: Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot Episode 7 Writer: Bruce Marshall Romans Episode 8 Writer: Oren Uziel Summary: As Spider-Noir heads into its final stretch, Ben Reilly is stuck between the life he wants to escape and the role the city still needs him to play. The penultimate episode pushes Ben into an identity crisis after his encounter with Dr. Faber, while Silvermane's superhuman muscle keeps escalating the war for the city. The finale brings the season's private-eye mystery, superhero guilt, gangster politics, and full-blown noir weirdness to a head. Main Cast: Nicolas Cage as Ben Reilly / The Spider Lamorne Morris as Robbie Robertson Li Jun Li Karen Rodriguez Abraham Popoola Jack Huston Brendan Gleeson Production Notes: Spider-Noir is an eight-episode live-action noir superhero series built around an older, down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York who has to confront his past as the city's masked vigilante. The show was developed by Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot, with Harry Bradbeer directing the first two episodes and executive producing. Out of 10, A Drunk Spider is Decidedly NOT Falling Down the Water Spout Brian: 7.5/10 Darryl: 7.8/10 Season out of 10, No Antidote for This Spider!

Condal and Shyam Popat Based On: Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin Summary: Season 3 opens with the Dance of the Dragons fully igniting.

The episode centers on the brutal Battle of the Gullet, as Corlys, Alyn, Jace, Baela, Rhaena, and the dragons are pulled into a fight that quickly spins out of control. It is a massive, tragic return that reminds everyone in Westeros that when dragons go to war, nobody gets to walk away clean. Main Cast: Emma D'Arcy as Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen Olivia Cooke as Queen Alicent Hightower Tom Glynn-Carney as King Aegon II Targaryen Ewan Mitchell as Prince Aemond Targaryen Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon Fabien Frankel as Ser Criston Cole Matthew Needham as Lord Larys Strong Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria Harry Collett as Prince Jacaerys Velaryon Bethany Antonia as Lady Baela Targaryen Phoebe Campbell as Lady Rhaena Targaryen Abubakar Salim as Alyn of Hull Clinton Liberty as Addam of Hull Rhys Ifans as Ser Otto Hightower Production Notes: House of the Dragon Season 3 continues the Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons.

House of the Dragon Season 3 finally lands, and the Battle of the Gullet gives the premiere one of the strongest hours the show has produced, complete with a death that reshapes the war and a 9 out of 10 score. It is a solo Father's Day episode, so Frank carries the news himself before settling into a full spoiler breakdown of the Targaryen civil war. Along the way Frank reacts to the first full Shrek 5 trailer and the cast joining Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz, celebrates the official greenlight of the Dungeon Crawler Carl TV show at Peacock, and unpacks EA's new in-game advertising platform coming to Madden and College Football 26. The episode also brings back a roundtable from the previous week, where Phil and Thomas help untangle the messy, fast-moving Bricks and Minifigs consignment controversy and what it says about chasing clout in a legal dispute. Timestamps and Topics 0:00 Intro and Father's Day Catch-Up 1:03 Shrek 5 Trailer Breakdown 5:18 Dungeon Crawler Carl TV Show Greenlit at Peacock 11:10 EA's New In-Game Ads Platform 16:23 Bricks and Minifigs Controversy with Phil and Thomas 36:21 House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 1 Review 55:53 Father's Day Send-Off Key Takeaways The full Shrek 5 trailer eases a lot of the early animation backlash, introduces the next generation of characters voiced by Zendaya, Marcelo Hernandez, and Skyler Gisondo, and reunites the original trio under returning director Walt Dohrn and co-director Conrad Vernon. The Dungeon Crawler Carl series is officially greenlit at Peacock with Matt Dinniman confirming it, Seth MacFarlane executive producing through Fuzzy Door, and Chris Yost writing, plus a Princess Donut CGI test that won the creator over. EA is rolling out a proprietary in-game ad server built on the Frostbite engine to drop swappable, location-targeted brand placements across Madden, EA Sports FC, College Football 26, and NBA titles. The Bricks and Minifigs saga started as a local consignment dispute over a massive sealed Lego collection and spiraled into a national story involving Reckless Ben, Coffee Zilla, Patreon, and harassment of unrelated stores. The Battle of the Gullet leans into spectacle with two real ships built to collide and three dragons in the air, landing the death of Jace and setting Rhaenyra up to carry the blame. The premiere doubles down on its core theme of women like Rhaenyra, Alicent, and Rayna being boxed in by the men around them, earning a 9 dragon eggs out of 10 from Frank. Quotes "House of the Dragon is about smashing two gigantic CGI dragons together and seeing who survives." "I'm going to give this a solid nine dragon eggs out of ten." "You kids nowadays, you don't know the joy of a DVD menu." "I don't believe there is good, I don't believe there is evil. I believe everybody has the capacity for both." (Phil) "When everything is said in clickbait titles instead of what is actually going on, suddenly everybody is a bad guy and everybody is a good guy."
