I think the crazier thing that we haven't talked about in a while is that it's a fantasy series that's doing this. Crime drama is traditionally a much, much easier sell.

Except if you have HBO you have multiple HBO GO codes so people who don't subscribe can still see it. Not that I know anything about that.....
I agree with the fantasy series point. Kinda like Walking Dead, it's fun to see heavy genre shows meeting widespread popularity.
