‘The Penguin’ Inches To Another Viewership Milestone Ahead Of Finale
deadline.comThe Penguin audience is still growing ahead of the finale. Episode 7 hit a series high of 1.9M cross-platform U.S. viewers across HBO and Max on Sunday night, according to Warner Bros.
Discovery, showcasing a 6% same-day audience increase in the last two weeks. The company says that the week leading up to last night’s episode was The Penguin‘s strongest week domestically on Max, likely in anticipation of the upcoming finale on November 10.
Meanwhile, the first episode has now amassed over 16M viewers, WBD adds. That’s 2M more than last time the company reported the viewership for the premiere in October.
So far, The Penguin has not appeared on Nielsen’s streaming charts.
