‘Yellowstone’ Season 5B Finale Wrangles Record Same-Day Audience
deadline.comYellowstone wrestled quite an audience for what is likely the conclusion of Taylor Sheridan‘s flagship series. The Season 5B finale delivered 11.4M viewers, the largest in series history, on Sunday night across Paramount Network and CMT.
According to Paramount Global, that’s up 4% from the Season 5A finale, which lassoed 10.3M live + same-day viewers. This data is courtesy of VideoAmp, since Paramount is still locked in a contract dispute with Nielsen.
This is the most bare bones data that Paramount has released for Season 5B. The company previously revealed a behemoth live + same-day audience across CBS and eight cable networks for the premiere, but the finale viewership gives a much better indication of just how big the weekly audience for the series was, since the rest of the episodes only aired on two networks.
