House of the Dragon season 1 came to a dramatic conclusion in an epic finale. The Game of Thrones prequel culminated in a brutal death as a war between the Greens and the Blacks feels inevitable. And that's not all: the finale also saw a shift in power among the allies of each house, a heartbreaking birth scene, and the introduction of a new dragon. 

With so much to take in you might want to rewatch the epic fantasy series ahead of House of the Dragon season 2 to make sure you are fully prepared for the Dance of the Dragons, AKA the bloody Targaryen civil war chronicled in George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood. So we've prepared a guide to every episode in season 1, including their titles and our reviews of each to help you navigate this. 

You can see the full rundown below – and if their multiple time skips have you confused, check out our guide to the House of the Dragon timeline.
