Who's Not Watching House of the Dragon?
A Surprising List of Cast Members
In a surprising twist, several cast members of HBO's hit series "House of the Dragon" have revealed that they don't actually watch the show. Actors Olivia Cooke (Alicent Hightower), Matt Smith (Daemon Targaryen), Eve Best (Rhaenys Targaryen), Fabien Frankel (Criston Cole), and Steve Toussaint (Corlys Velaryon) have all admitted to not being regular viewers of the series they star in.
Reasons for Not Watching
The reasons for their lack of viewership vary. Cooke has stated that she finds it "too stressful" to watch herself on screen, while Smith has said that he prefers to "live in the moment" and not dwell on past performances. Best has admitted to being "terrible at watching TV," while Frankel has said that he "gets too nervous" when he watches himself act. Toussaint, on the other hand, has simply said that he "doesn't have the time."
Despite their lack of viewership, the cast members have all praised the show's quality and the performances of their fellow actors. Cooke has called the show "brilliant," while Smith has said that he "loves" it. Best has praised the show's "rich characters" and "complex storylines," while Frankel has said that he is "proud" to be a part of it. Toussaint has called the show "a masterpiece."
Impact on the Show
The fact that the cast members of "House of the Dragon" don't watch the show is unlikely to have a negative impact on its success. The show has already been renewed for a second season, and it is one of the most popular shows on HBO. The actors' lack of viewership is simply a reflection of their own personal preferences and does not reflect on the quality of the show itself.
