Whatever the overall numbers may be, Game of Thrones held to its title as most torrented TV show of the year for as long as the show existed, which is a sort of honor though I’d wager HBO would rather people watch their shows through official means, this record remains an indicator of popularity. Game of Thrones was as popular as ever on streaming sites, but there is simply no easy way to calculate just how popular. Nowadays, many (perhaps most) users of pirated content do not bother with peer-to-peer downloads, resorting to streaming sites instead they require no direct downloads, so they can be watched instantaneously, at the expense of quality and long-term storage.

However, as TorrentFreak points out, The Mandalorian may have been such a massive hit on torrent sites in large part because Disney+, the streaming platform in which the show is exclusively streamed, has only been available in a few countries, mostly in North America and Oceania, and will remains so until March of this year.Īs we mentioned last year, “torrent” does not refer to any kind of unnoficial / illegal download, so the overall piracy numbers would be much higher if they were to be calculated, which is no easy feat. The torrent podium this year was shared by the HBO mini-series Chernobyl, on second place, and Disney’s The Mandalorian, which may well take the throne next year as the two HBO shows won’t be there to compete and did in fact unseat The Walking Dead from the top-three for the first time in many years. As you may not be surprised to learn, season eight didn’t break the streak.Īs reported by specialist site TorrentFreak, “the interest was again overwhelming” for this final season so much so that this year Game of Thrones “visibly boosted traffic” on torrent sites. In fact, as of season seven it’d been the TV show most pirated via torrents every year since 2012 since season two. It’s also been a darling of torrent sites–a popular form of piracy based on peer-to-peer downloads–ever since the HBO series began.
But best series of all time it is not.Game of Thrones isn’t only popular on HBO. So can I recommend a GoT marathon for newcomers? Yes, the first 6 seasons are worth the disappointments later on. It also ruined the series-arcs to the point where a rewatch of the entire series is pointless. The biggest problem with the final season was it took us out of the story and got us thinking about its many weaknesses. If you ever enjoyed Lost but were amazed at how bad the final season was, you're in familiar territory here.
The writing has got so amateurish that the still-fantastic production values are no longer enough to save it. Season 8: this drop chasms down to depths you didn't think possible. But at least the entertainment value is still very high, so it gets a pass. There are inexplicable ideas, inconsistent characterisation and soap-opera dramas. Season 7: you suddenly notice the writing and plotting has taken a sharp dive downwards in quality. GoT is worth watching for these seasons, definitely. Deep world-building, intelligent dialogue, epic set-pieces worthy of Hollywood, expert acting, detailed plotting, genuine surprises, great soundtrack used sparingly. What's the consensus? In this case, the consensus is accurate, and that is: Seasons 1-6: outstanding. Let's say you're reading these reviews and haven't watched GoT yet, but now that it's finished are considering the marathon.
