House Of The Dragon's average viewership per episode has grown at a rather steady pace. The show premiered a month ago on HBO and is the first Game of Thrones spinoff series.
According to Variety, the fifth episode of the prequel series drew 3% more U.S. viewers than Episode 4. Additionally, Season 1 is now averaging 29 million viewers per episode across its first five episodes. Game of Thrones averaged more than 44 million viewers per episode for its eighth and final season in 2019.
Reportedly, Episode 1 garnered 10 million viewers, gaining viewers steadily with each episode except Episode 3, which came out on Labour’s Day weekend and saw a drop of 1 million in cable viewership. Per the report, Episode 5 statistics combine Nielsen’s measurement of Sunday’s four cable airings with the number of streaming viewers across HBO Max and other HBO platforms.
When isolating linear viewership, according to Nielsen, 2.576 million people tuned into the episode on HBO itself, a 4% increase when compared to last week’s 2.474 million cable viewers. Previously, House of the Dragon also had the largest series premiere in HBO history passing the original Game of Thrones series, which scored a 2.22 million viewership for its pilot episode back in 2011.
Taking a leap of another decade, Episode 6, The Princess and the Queen, will see Alcock and Carey be replaced by Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke as Princess Rhaenyra and Lady Alicent respectively.
New episodes of House of the Dragon air on Monday mornings on Disney+ Hotstar.
