《權力的遊戲》最新季迴歸，首集收視破紀錄
The premiere of Game of Thrones’ seventh season set a series record of 10.1 million viewers tuning in to the live broadcast. Despite being off the air for three months longer than the usual one-year gap between seasons, it seems that the show has lost none of its momentum, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
權力的遊戲第七季首集創下該系列收視新高，有線電視觀衆達1010萬。此前，權力的遊戲每年更新一季，今年播放時間延遲了三個月，但據《好萊塢報道》（The Hollywood Reporter）稱，權力的遊戲勢頭依舊迅猛。
According to HBO, “Dragonstone” beat last year’s season 6 finale (which had 8.89 million viewers) for the title of most watched Game of Thrones episode in the series’s history. That number also doesn’t factor in streaming views, which added another 6 million views toThrones’ total last night.
美國有線電視網絡公司稱，第六季大結局收視率爲889萬，第七季第一集“龍石島”遠超第六季大結局，成爲權力的遊戲系列收視率最高的單集。其收視率數據統計不包括流媒體服務觀衆，否則恐怕還要再爲昨晚的首集增加六百萬收視。
Looking back, it’s remarkable how the viewership of Game of Thrones has grown over the past seven years. The pilot episode, which aired in April 2011, brought in a comparatively tiny 2.22 million viewers. Wikipedia’s Game of Thrones episode page helpfully charts how that fan base has ballooned from year to year. With only six more episodes left in this condensed season, there’s a good chance HBO will continue to surpass itself in the coming weeks.
七年來，權力的遊戲觀衆大幅增加。2011年4月，試播集只有222萬觀衆。維基百科有關權力的遊戲系列介紹的頁面記錄了受衆羣逐年壯大的盛況。第七季集數不多，只剩六集尚未播出，美國有線電視網絡公司有望在未來幾周再創佳績。
