Oh I'm glad the audience for Normal Heart went up, very moving film.. And as for GOT well nothing is going to stop it for a few seasons yet.
ReplyDeleteGood for Game of Thrones , the show just keeps getting better each season.
ReplyDeleteGoT is unstoppable! I hope the finale broke to the 4s!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if it can go up next season or if it already peaked on the ratings
I was wondering how the NBA finals would affect the ratings and it really did not lower the ratings too much. Maybe a few tenths or half a point at most. Pretty impressive!
