"Thankfully, critics are largely in agreement: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms might just be the best piece of Game of Thrones content we've seen in years. Audiences, though, are a bit harder to please. IMDb has it sitting pretty at 8.3 stars after more than 11,000 reviews, while Rotten Tomatoes considers the show fresh with a 95% score from its critics-though, the wider 'popcornmeter', which is open to all audiences, sits at just 69%."
"Compared to the often bombastic and sprawling mainline series that came before it, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a "surprisingly heartfelt, light, and fun" tale of a knight and his squire, according to GamesRadar. That bond, between lead characters Dunk and Egg is a central standout across the critical consensus."
George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones universe returns with A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, a smaller-scale HBO adaptation focusing on a knight and his squire. Critics have given largely positive responses, reflected in high aggregator scores on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic and an 8.3 IMDb rating from over 11,000 users. Audience reactions are mixed, with Rotten Tomatoes' audience 'popcornmeter' and Metacritic user scores notably lower than critics. Critics praise the show's heartfelt, light tone and the central bond between Dunk and Egg, played by Peter Claffey and Dexter Sol Ansell. The relationship provides a compelling, human core for the series.
