A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (PILOT)

from Today's Episode

HBO kicks off its 2026 slate by returning to Westeros. Set ~90 years before Game of Thrones, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms follows Ser Dunk, a hedge knight who might technically not be a knight, and his squire Egg, as they set out to compete in the nearest tourney.In the podcast, we break down the 50-minute pilot to see if this midquel can stand on its own without the heavy sex, drama and action of its predecessors. We also talk comparisons, highlights, ways the show could improve, and our overall rating. Tune in and welcome to Today's Episode!
