The Mandalorian has been named the most pirated TV show of 2020, effectively overthrowing HBO‘s now-finished Game of Thrones.

According to a report by TorrentFreak, the Star Wars Disney+ exclusive finished No. 3 in 2019 and jumped up two spots to No. 1 the year after. Following The Mandalorian at No. 2 is Amazon Prime Video‘s The Boys while HBO’s Westworld enters at No. 3. The report states that although “BitTorrent traffic only makes up a small portion of the piracy landscape,” the top three shows were generally popular online on both legal and illegal platforms.

The rest of the top 10 is comprised of long-running shows such as Vikings, Rick and Morty, The Walking Dead, Arrow and The Flash, plus 2020 newcomers Star Trek: Picard and The Outsider.

The Mandalorian recently capped off its second season and, in addition a third season, will receive three spin-offs on its timeline: The Book of Boba Fett, Rangers of the New Republic, and Ahsoka.

Take a look at the complete top 10 ranking below.
