Season 2 debuts with 201.60 million hours seen, which equals 50M views. Meaning season 2 didn’t come out of the gates stronger than season 1, regardless of the decrease runtime. We suspect a part of the reply may be as a result of some are ready for half 2 to drop. Nonetheless, this second season remains to be Netflix’s second greatest debut ever for an English TV collection, with the Jake Paul/Mike Tyson battle at #3 with 46.6M views, Bridgerton S3 behind that with 45.10M views, and Idiot Me As soon as behind that with 37.10M views.
