for the most part, you’re safe; because media files aren’t executable (like exe, appimage, etc) including a virus in the file wouldn’t do much. there could be a zero-day (e.g buffer overflow in the media file that exploits a flaw in the player/decoder, but that isn’t anywhere near as common as including malware in executable files.

absolutely agree. for most shows, I don’t particularly care what I download, but for specific shows like GoT, I’ll go for the high quality x264 copy
you dont need to turn them off.
congrats!
