We watched episode one and honestly it was great to return to Westeros. While I found there to be a few cringey lines here and there, the episode set everything up nicely and the ending with Viserys and Rhaenyra was awesome. Really sets up the rest of the season nicely. Looking forward to next week already. I would highly recommend starting from the beginning!
