Despite the HBO hit series having a huge following in Nigeria and was always a major trend on social media, Tiwa Savage didn’t get moved a bit to even catch a glimpse of what the hype was all about.
Tiwa Savage has revealed that she appears to be the only one who hasn’t seen a single episode of Game of Thrones.
With single-night viewing records of 19.3 million watch, this makes ‘Game of Thrones’ the highest viewed show in HBO history beating it’s own viewership record weekly.
Across HBO, HBO Go, and HBO NOW, the conclusion of the megahit fantasy series drew 19.3 million viewers, overtaking the previous series high of 18.4 million viewers that was set on May 12.
In addition, 13.6 million people watched the telecast on HBO alone, breaking the record for the biggest single telecast in HBO history.
The previous record holder was the Season four premiere of ‘The Sopranos’ in 2002, which drew 13.4 million.
‘Game of Thrones’ also once again lifted up the Bill Hader-led comedy “Barry,” whose Season two finale drew 2.7 million viewers across HBO’s platforms.
