It wrapped up the overarching plot involving the journey to return the egg (hatched into the adorable Zym) to his mother, and the Dragon Queen greeted her child amidst happily allied humans and elves willing at last to set their differences aside. The Season 3 finale to The Dragon Prince has all the conclusivity of a show ready to end on a high note. Tasked with returning a lost dragon egg to its mother in order to stop a war that would consume the continent, the half-brothers, Princes Ezran and Callum, paired up with the Moon Elf, Rayla on a journey that could decide the fate of millions. I know that’s what I’ll be doing soon.WARNING: The following contains major spoilers for The Dragon Prince Season 3, available now on Netflix.įrom the start of the show, the plot of The Dragon Prince was incredibly ambitious. Binge it if that’s your thing, although I think the show would benefit from a slower watch to drink in the details. If you’ve somehow been waiting to watch The Dragon Prince, do it now.

After season 3, The Dragon Prince is a series I can’t wait to watch over and over again. The scale, the depth, the emotions, the music, everything takes on a life that feels bigger than just one marathon viewing session can process. That comparison also came to mind because Season 3 felt like the true television inheritor to the LOTR legacy, just with more jokes. I found myself just staring at the backgrounds during quiet dialogue scenes, comparing them in my mind to some of the best vistas from Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings. The backgrounds especially are beyond description and that art book for the series can’t come fast enough. One of show’s biggest strengths, its art, has only gotten better. The Dragon Prince has never shied away from darkness but it’s much appreciated that a character like Bait can come in and just make you bust up laughing no matter the situation. I’m incredibly impressed at how well the series interweaves comedy into even its bleakest moments. I don’t want to downplay their work though the writers behind this series are at the top of their game. It feels effortlessly natural, as if the writers were somehow contacted from another world by an oddly hot elf spirit and told to write it all down. Seeing how they grow and change over this season brings a warm smile to my face just thinking about it. To borrow some Twitter vernacular, these characters are all SO.

All the build up over the past two seasons is paid off in ways you won’t expect but will delight all the same. Plotlines other series would keep as slow burns, The Dragon Prince unleashes with a full fiery passion. Every line, every shot, every background, every music cue, everything just works. Every single element of the series has clicked into place perfectly. The Dragon Prince season 3 is firing on all cylinders. “A rich world, captivating characters, a beautiful score, and a central conflict that can drive seasons worth of stories.” Now, having finished the third season of the series, I can confidently state that no other show has lived up to the promise inherent in its first few episodes more. Back in my review of The Dragon Prince season 1 I said the series had a lot of potential.
