About

Announced in 2014, The Watchers on the Couch was the second podcast to debut on the Onyx Edge Studios Network. Originally a Game of Thrones (HBO) discussion podcast, our first episode was released in 2015 following the Season 5 premiere with Tim Pickerill, Sarah Hedrick, and Mike Daffron.

In 2017, the original Watchers line-up also launched the podcast These American Gods, a discussion podcast about the STARZ series American Gods.

With no new season of Game of Thrones in 2018, the Watchers covered season 2 of Westworld as a “bonus season.” Following the success of the Westworld season, and the impending end of the Game of Thrones series, the Watchers on the Couch rebranded into a multi-show format in the summer of 2018 and added a variety of hosts.

In addition to Game of Thrones and Westworld, the Watchers podcast has also covered Castle Rock (HULU), Better Call Saul (AMC) and Watchers at the Movies.
