《权力的游戏》成为HBO最受欢迎美剧

　　"Game of Thrones" has hit a major milestone: It is officially HBO's most watched series of all time. The cable network's previous high was the 18.2 million viewers who tuned in for "The Sopranos" series finale, but now "Game of Thrones" has passed it with its average of 18.4 million weekly viewers in Season 4.

　　《权力的游戏》又拿下一个里程碑意义的好成绩：该剧已经正式成为HBO电视台有史以来观看人数最多的美剧了。HBO电视台早先发布数据，观看《黑道家族》大结局的观众人数是1820万，而《权力的游戏》第四季以平均单集收视人数1840万的好成绩超越《黑道家族》，成为HBO观看人数最多的美剧。

　　That average gross audience number comes from a combination of first-run ratings, encore showings and HBO Go and on demand viewings. Season 3 of "Game of Thrones" brought in an average of 14.4 million viewers weekly。

　　这个平均收视数据包括观看首播、重播、HBO GO(HBO的APP)以及点播的观众。《权力的游戏》第三季的单集平均收视人数为1440万。

　　With two episodes left of Season 4, that number will likely rise even beyond 18.4 million weekly viewers. The number of live viewers has been rising since the premiere, and chances are it will peak with the Season 4 finale, "The Children," which airs on June 15 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO。

　　《权力的游戏》第四季还剩两集，最终的收视人数应该会比1840万观众还要高。《权力的游戏》第四季开播以来收视一路走高，而最好的创纪录机会必然是《权力的游戏》第四季结局集《The Children》，这一集将会在北京时间6月16日开播。
