George Bush Got Beheaded On The Show

Bush
Not literally, but because the show famously reuses props, a George W. Bush head has been used for multiple beheading scenes. If you pay close attention in the 10th episode of Season One, you can actually see Bush’s head held up on a pike in King’s Landing. Show producers swear this wasn’t a political statement in any kind of way, but more an issue of convenience. HBO was displeased, to say the least, and they issued a formal apology along with a guarantee to remove it from all future DVDs.
