While the rampant graphic sex scenes in “Game of Thrones” have been the focus of much satire and criticism of the series, it appears that people actually opt out of watching porn to tune in.

According to CinemaBlend’s analysis of Pornhub’s viewership, porn watching dropped by 4.5 percent during the Season 7 premiere of “Game of Thrones.” The analysis claims that the time in which “Game of Thrones” airs on Sunday night is actually one of the most popular times to watch porn.

The analysis also claims that once the show finished airing at 10 p.m., it took a half hour for the Pornhub viewership to go back to its normal Sunday average.

It apparently isn’t unusual for people to substitute watching porn for indulging in “Game of Thrones.” Analysis of Pornhub traffic changes during the season six find that Pornhub browsing dropped when “Game of Thrones” episodes aired.
