HBO's 2-Season Controversial Fantasy Series Is Flying to No. 1 Just 2 Weeks Ahead of Return

Article excerpt

House of the Dragon, HBO's Game of Thrones prequel, has surged to the No. 1 spot on streaming charts just two weeks before Season 3 premieres in June 2026. The series faced a rough transition after Game of Thrones' widely panned finale, but its strong first season proved the Westeros universe still had commercial life. Season 2 received mixed reviews, yet the show maintains enough momentum to dominate the platform's lineup alongside HBO's other prestige offerings.
