Talking about lord corlys velaryon written as a white man and that family as white. Now I don't have an issue with this house being black as this is the FIRST time we see anyone from House of Velaryon and Steve Toussiant is great in this role. But being black, brown or asian in Westeros in a prequel should at least be mentioned in this show as Westeros is white and pasty as hell in this world. As the older article above mentions this from the horses mouth.
So to say its not ludicrous to stick to the internal logic of this show as everyone in this thread keeps mentioning JUST because theres dragons is ridiculous. Now these things are NOT reasons to hate the show at all, all I simply said is please explain it. And i hope the show does one day. To say its not distracting is obtuse. The show has a lot to do with race and class as much as it does with dragons lol
