20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Never Knew About Game Of Thrones

11. ...And The Kingsroad Is The Least Viewed

The least viewed episode of Game Of Thrones, The Kingsroad, is only the second episode ever, bringing in only 2.2 million viewers. This base fact suggests a chunk of the audience left after not being drawn into the first hour - that's how it works with most shows, with things rarely matching an assured start. But with Thrones things were different. Even before word of mouth had people binge-watching entire seasons in a day, the show was doing a good job of keeping people addicted - there was only a drop by 0.2 million between the first and second episode (the premiere got 2.22 million), meaning most people were hooked from the start.
