"Game of Thrones" still reigns as the most pirated TV show. The hit HBO series has landed the honor for several years and this year marks the fifth year in a row the medieval drama becomes the most illegally-downloaded TV show, according to Torrent Freak.

The highest number of people sharing an episode across several torrents was 350,000, right after sixth season finale aired. The site notes that a lot of people have switched from torrents to streaming sites over the past months, which means the number of piracy could grow beyond the number of the illegal downloads via BitTorrent.

"The Walking Dead" still follows "Thrones" at No. 2, while freshman "Westworld" jets to No. 3. The sci-fi drama, which is based on Michael Crichton's 1973 film of the same name, has become a new hit on HBO.

Other newcomers in the top 10 of the list are FOX's drama fantasy "Lucifer" and Amazon's "The Grand Tour". The latter, a British motoring series created by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May and produced by Andy Wilman following their departures from BBC's series "Top Gear", was previously falsely reported as the most pirated TV show, beating "Game of Thrones". In fact, the show is just the most pirated U.K. TV show.
