Game of Thrones became one of the most talked-about television series of its era — not only because of its casting, dialogue, political intrigue and brutal battle scenes, but also because it was never shy about nudity and sex.
From its very first season, the show mixed violence, intimacy, power and sexuality in ways that quickly became part of its identity.
More than a decade later, Season 1 is still worth revisiting. So let’s go back to where it all started and look at some of the most memorable nudity and sex scenes from the first season of Game of Thrones.
