cozmeesah Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Game of Thrones is now the biggest show HBO has had since the 2004 season of The Sopranos. http://www.vulture.com/2013/06/game-of-thrones-huge-ratings-chart.html So far this season, GoT is bringing in 4.9 million viewers with its 9 p.m. Sunday telecasts, up nearly 30 percent vs. last year's average of 3.8 million and basically double the 2.5 million who watched the show Sundays during its inaugural 2011 run. Now, before sounding off in the comments, the 13.6 million audience tally for GoT cited in the chart is not a typo. As noted above, the show is averaging around 5 million viewers for its 9 p.m. Sunday play on HBO. But like most HBO series — as well as a slew of other basic and pay cable shows — that first telecast reps just a small portion of the eventual audience for each episode. For example, the instant encore of GoT that airs at 11 p.m. Sunday can add more than a million more viewers to the tally. The number goes up by about another third when everyone who recorded the show on DVR finally plays it back. The countless repeats on HBO and its so-called "multiplex" channels (HBO2, HBO Latino) boost viewership by about 15 percent, while folks who watch an episode on demand add a similar amount to the final tally. Finally, those who like their GoT carnage on the streaming app HBO GO tack on another 6 percent. Add it all up, and GoT nearly triples its initial audience, ending up with the aforementioned 13.6 million total viewers. (And in case you were curious: The show's overall audience is 57 percent male and 43 percent female, according to HBO.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) As expected the Red Wedding will likely go down as one of the biggest TV plot twists ever based on the reactions. I remember reading the Game of Thrones Wiki and I clicked the Red Wedding to see what that was and the rest of the day I was like Edited June 7, 2013 by Lordmandeep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedarpoint1111 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 It's probably the most sad I've ever been for a character death. I take that back, this is tied with Jack Dawson's death. *heavy sigh* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean what I think you mean, we don't know for sure if it'll happen, but it's expected by most readers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I hope there are no more deaths this season. I think the only death I could handle right now would be joffrey's but I don't see that happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Should I click that spoiler tag? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Should I click that spoiler tag? It's a minor spoiler that won't really have much effect other than shock value, so it depends on whether you want to wait for tomorrow night to see it. I imagine it would be in the first scene of the finale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Just note it's a production still, so it'll probably look a bit different on-screen tomorrow night. Another leaked still showed Jaime, but it was from an angle that showed his actual right hand lying under an empty sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Yeah the leaked looks a bit off but in the show it will really add even more shock value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
