"You watch the game of thrones you love it or get obsessed with it, there is no middle ground."
I bet the majority of the Game of Thrones fans would agree with the extended statement. Ever since the first season of the fantasy drama television series premiered on HBO on April 17, 2011, the show has only witnessed a surge in its popularity. It wouldn't be wrong to say that it is the most watched show and has attracted a massive number of audience from all across the globe.

A Still from the show

It is a TV adaptation of the book A Song of Ice and Fire written by George R.R Martin. Much before the show aired on TV, A song of Ice and Fire had already become the most popular bestseller.

As the name suggests the story revolves around the Iron Throne and the battle to win it. But the plot gets deeper and deeper with more episodes and seasons. The show has earned viewers in millions and there is no slowing down in this trend.

The reason for its widespread popularity could be the intriguing way in which the story unfolds itself, creating more suspense and further making it a treat to watch. The show's popularity is so huge that there are predictions and anticipated theories about what next is going to happen. So many fan pages, widely circulating memes on every social media platform, and even the headlines of some renowned newspaper have created more buzz about the show. There are GOT inspired merchandise for all those who couldn't get enough of the show. You could wear your favorite character on your sleeves and walk like a proud GOT fan.

When the first episode of the final 8th season premiered on HBO on April 15, it aroused mixed feelings from the audience.

Fans are ecstatic that their much-awaited favorite show is finally here, but also sad over the fact that the show will end in May.

House Stark Of Winterfell

When it's 7th season aired on HBO it took the Tv industry by storm by earning the maximum number Emmys awards last year.
