‘House of the Dragon’ Season 3 Episode 6 IMDb Score Revealed

‘House of the Dragon’ Season 3 Episode 6 has arrived, and early fan reactions suggest the latest chapter has left viewers divided. The episode, titled ‘Faceless Men,’ currently holds an 8.1/10 rating on IMDb, based on more than 4,000 votes.

The episode follows Rhaenyra and Daemon as they try to figure out their next move while dealing with growing problems among their allies. According to the official IMDb description, “While Rhaenyra and Daemon focus on how best to deal with Ormund, tensions among their neglected allies begin to erupt.”

The new rating places Episode 6 below the season’s first two episodes, which received much stronger scores from viewers. Season 3 opened with ‘Salt and Sea, Fire and Blood,’ which earned a 9.2 rating, followed by ‘Queen’s Landing,’ which reached an impressive 9.3. Since then, ratings have dropped slightly, with Episode 3 receiving an 8.2, Episode 4 earning 7.6, and Episode 5 landing at 7.8.

While many fans still praised the episode, others felt it did not deliver the level of excitement they expected this deep into the season. Several IMDb reviewers pointed out that the long wait between seasons made the slower moments harder to accept.

One viewer rated the episode 8/10 and praised the writing, performances, visuals, and music. However, they also admitted that the pacing was a problem, saying the story felt slower than expected, considering how close the season was getting to its ending.

Another reviewer gave the episode a 9/10, showing that some fans were still very satisfied with the latest chapter. However, not everyone shared that excitement. Some viewers criticized the episode for focusing too much on smaller storylines, with one reviewer simply calling it “House of the boring sub plots.”

Another fan gave the episode a 6/10 and praised the scale of the production but felt the story was missing emotional depth. They described the series as a visual achievement while arguing that the characters and dialogue were not as strong as they should be.

Despite the criticism, many viewers continue to praise the show’s production quality. The battles, costumes, locations, and cinematography remain some of the biggest strengths of the series. Several fans also noted that the final moments of the episode helped improve the overall experience and created excitement for what comes next.

The mixed reaction appears to come from expectations rather than a complete rejection of the series. Many fans still believe the show can deliver a strong finish, especially with the final episodes of the season approaching.

Compared to earlier episodes, ‘Faceless Men’ may not have reached the same level of excitement for every viewer, but it continues to keep audiences engaged with the ongoing conflict between Rhaenyra, Daemon, and their enemies.

With the season moving closer to its conclusion, fans are now waiting to see whether the remaining episodes can bring the major moments they have been expecting. For now, Episode 6 stands as one of the more debated chapters of ‘House of the Dragon’ Season 3.
