"season 2 of house of the dragon was filler. nothing happened"

Things that happened:

Daemon ordered Aemond's death in retribution for Lucerys' murder, Jaehaerys is instead beheaded

Rhaenyra is blamed for the murder, labeled "Rhaenyra the Cruel"

Rhaenyra realizes Daemon is at fault. She confronts him, tells him she isn't sure if she can trust him, calls him pathetic. He flees

Aegon fires Otto as his hand and sends him away. He then makes Cole his hand

We later find out that Otto has, in fact, been held prisoner ever since he was exiled

Rhaenyra sneaks into Kings Landing to vie for peace with Alicent and the Greens. She wants to avoid bloodshed in a needless war after inheriting years of peace from her father's reign. Alicent rejects her and says it's too late

Rhaenyra forces a blockade on Kings Landing, withholding food and resources in an attempt to make the Greens surrender

The people of Kings Landing are starving, start to turn against the Greens

Rhaenyra sends food and resources to the smallfolk in an attempt to get them to support her claim. This seems to work

Rhaenys and Meleys die in battle against Aemond

Cole parades Meleys' head through the streets of Kings Landing, calling her a "traitor dragon." This is seen as an omen by the smallfolk. It disrespects the symbol of the House Targaryen and in turn makes them look weak. Whereas before they appeared invincible and god-like because of their ability to ride and command dragons. "It's just meat."

Aemond burns Aegon, almost kills him, Sunfyre also dies

Aemond then goes to finish the job, but is interrupted by Cole

Aemond becomes Prince Regent despite Alicent advocating for herself to become Queen Regent again

Aemond fires Alicent from his council, then later threatens Aegon

Daemon almost goes insane in harrenhal after he is haunted through dreams and visions by the witch Alys

Daemon considers turning against Rhaenyra out of jealousy and anger

Daemon sees a vision of the song of ice and fire. He re-pledges his loyalty to Rhaenyra and has an army at her command

Helaena also appears in this vision and tells Daemon to kill Aemond

Rhaenyra finds three new dragonriders

Rhaenyra now has seven dragons versus Aemond's two. (Three if you count Dreamfyre)

Helaena reveals to Aemond that she knows he burned Aegon. She refuses to ride into battle after he demands her to. He threatens her, she says she saw his death and that Aegon will be king again

Aegon flees the city with Larys to ride out the war between Aemond and Rhaenyra. Aegon's dick was also burned off

Aemond burns Sharp Point out of fear and frustration after he learns of Rhaenyra's new dragonriders

Alicent realizes she misinterpreted Viserys' final words

She goes to Rhaenyra with the hope of saving herself and Helaena. She offers Rhaenyra the city, and offers her Aegon's head

Rhaenyra kisses a woman. She's a girl-kisser!

Corlys comes to terms with the damage he did to his two "bastard" sons

Rhaena potentially finds a dragon of her own

Jacaerys contronts Rhaenyra about her infidelity and about the threat he faces as her heir since it is plain for everyone to see that he is a "bastard." Rhaenyra does not understand his concerns because she has never seen him as anything but her son, she has never considered him or thought of him as a bastard. He voices his frustration with her deciding to let Targaryen bastards ride dragons because he questions his worthiness to be King. He struggles to see the difference between him and the other Targaryen bastards

Tyland makes a deal with the Triarchy and gets them to back the Greens

I know I missed some stuff but, just so you know, things did, in fact, happen this season. It was only 8 episodes.
