The premiere’s success is nothing to scoff at. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the show has never attracted more than 8.9 million viewers to one of its telecasts. Game of Thrones‘ premiere, then, attracted millions of more viewers than the show ever has.
Game of Thrones is the most-watched series in HBO history, though it’s benefited from the ubiquity of streaming services, like HBO Go and HBO Now, which provide users easier access to the network’s content. HBO programming is also available on a host of other services, including streaming television offering Sling TV. Amazon (AMZN) offers an HBO subscription through its Amazon Channels streaming-video platform. Earlier this month, Hulu added HBO and Cinemax streaming support to its service.
The latest Game of Thrones season will air a total of seven episodes. The season finale is slated for August 27.
