Why it’s on these channels

House of the Dragon is an HBO Original , produced by HBO in partnership with Geordie Ring Productions and based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood. Because it’s an HBO show:

  • In markets where HBO operates directly, it airs on the HBO channel and streams on HBO Max/Max.
  • In the UK and some other regions, HBO licenses its content to local partners, so it appears on Sky Atlantic instead.
