Ben Schwartz Experiencing The Red Wedding Episode Of ‘Game Of Thrones’ For The First Time Is Very Relatable

House of the Dragon is one of the biggest shows on TV, but not everyone is watching it. Heck, some people haven’t even gotten around to Game of Thrones yet. Ben Schwartz, of Parks and Recreation, Sonic, and The Afterparty fame, was one of those people — until he tested positive for COVID, giving him an excuse to watch an old TV show.
