Once again, Game of Thrones finds itself on TorrentFreak’s list of the most widely pirated TV shows of the year. The fantasy epic show — which achieved a milestone earlier this year as HBO’s most popular series of all time — also reportedly edged out AMC’s The Walking Dead and CBS’ The Big Bang Theory for illegal downloads. According to TorrentFreak, which compiles the annual list, Game of Thrones saw an estimated 8.1 million illegal downloads, which appears to far out pace the downloads for Walking Dead, The Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother.
