Writer George RR Martin blamed the “toxic internet” for public distrust of ‘House of the Dragon’, a ‘Game of Thrones’ spin-off. Author of the books that inspired the production starring Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington, Martin lamented the fury of social networks in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

Martin attributed a possible ‘backwardness’ of some ‘Game of Thrones’ fans towards ‘House of the Dragon’ to attacks coming from social media.

The author stated, “The fuckin’ toxic internet and these podcasts out there saying that season eight left such a bad impression that people say ‘oh, I’m never going to watch them again’. I don’t trust them anymore.”
