GameOfThrones has finally been dethroned as HouseOfTheDragon has topped 2022's list of most-pirated TV shows.
After setting multiple records for HBO and HBO Max, House of the Dragon season 1 has topped 2022's most-pirated TV shows list. The fantasy drama acts as a prequel to Game of Thrones, adapting George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood novel, and chronicling the downfall of House Targaryen, namely with the death of Paddy Considine's King Viserys and plotting from the Hightower family to overthrow the Targaryens, all culminating in the war known as the Dance of the Dragons.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY As the year comes to a close, TorrentFreak reports that House of the Dragon has topped 2022's most-pirated TV shows list. Coming in at the top of the list, the HBO series has officially surpassed its predecessor, Game of Thrones, which was dominating the piracy charts even three years after coming to an end.
Even in more official avenues, House of the Dragon has proven to be a worthwhile successor to Game of Thrones, with season 1 of the former sitting at a 93 percent approval rating from critics on review aggregate Rotten Tomatoes, a full three points higher than the latter's debut season.
One of the biggest advantages House of the Dragon has in its favor is Martin's closer involvement with helping develop the show for HBO, unlike Game of Thrones, on which he only contributed to writing four episodes and gave an outline of the final two books in his Song of Fire & Ice novel series, while David Benioff and D.B. Weiss ran the show.
