This series is one of the best-performing programs on these platforms. The Last of Us premiere of the last episode was an incredible triumph. It is only behind the Game Of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon. According to data compiled by Warner Bros, this series was a success from the beginning and was on the rise.
For example, the debut of The last US with 4.7 million viewers who enjoyed its first episode. Its rating grew to 5.7 million views in the second episode and the third one to 6.4 million people. As mentioned before, the fourth episode reached 7.5 million viewers at its premiere.
The data for episodes 5, 6, and 7 were released recently and were relatively high. As for episode 5, this one officially had 11.6 million, although it includes three days of views since it had to reorganize its transmission due to the Super Bowl, which implies that all these visualizations correspond to three days instead of one.
Chapters 6 and 7 remain at values of close to 7.8 million viewers. Warner expects that these numbers will continue to increase and that this series can increase its rating. However, there is still a long way to go before it can surpass its main competitor, House of the Dragon.
With The Last of Us last episode premiere, it broke a record with the highest number of views in the saga. Does this open the door to a second season, taking into account the audience results, everything points to yes.
