How HBO Can Save (Or Trash) Game Of Thrones With ‘House Of The Dragon’

Star Wars Hangover

It’s very difficult to make a successful prequel series but not impossible. Netflix pulled it off with Better Call Saul. This show’s events went down before those of Breaking Bad but it remained brilliant. However, it had a different tone from its predecessor and went in another direction (via Variety).

Unfortunately, many prequels suffer from Star Wars syndrome. Yes, TV and movies are contrasting mediums but they share some similarities. It’s not easy to go back to a world and make fans care in the same way. Sometimes writers become lost in the lore instead of telling an entertaining story.
