Game of Thrones set another ratings record last Sunday with 5.35 million viewers, according to Hollywood Reporter.  All showings Sunday night totaled 6.7 million viewers.  Its cumulative average including all HBO showings, DVR, HBO Go and On Demand is 13.4 million viewers.  And the audiences are continuing a steady upward trend (see "Another 'Thrones' Ratings Record").

The increase is putting Game of Thrones in position to take over as HBO’s top series.  Ratings for its most recent episode topped all of the 2012 True Blood episodes, according to the report.
