Critics fire on 'House of Dragon'

And 'Ferris Bueller' spinoff in the works

What to know

• Critics mostly positive on House of the Dragon… Does the Game of Thrones prequel, premiering Sunday, live up to its predecessor? Some critics say yes, while others are a bit more lukewarm, opting to tease how the show gets better as it goes. Dragon currently sits at 78% on RottenTomatoes. Good enough, I suppose. This reception probably won’t stop people from sampling the series, but if viewers are as mixed on it as reviewers, HBO might see a big drop off in week 2. The pressure remains on. 🐉
