Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones is a television series based on George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels. First airing in 2011 on HBO, it quickly became a global phenomenon, known for its political intrigue, moral ambiguity, and brutal unpredictability. Set in the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos, the series follows noble houses vying for power amid war, betrayal, and supernatural threats.

While its final seasons divided opinion, its influence on the fantasy genre and prestige TV remains substantial and enduring.
