Lanterns Episode 7 Draws 7 Million U.S. Viewers in Three Days
Nielsen data shows Lanterns' seventh episode pulled in about 7 million U.S. viewers in three days, with the DC series averaging 19 million globally.
Nielsen viewership data released this week shows that the seventh episode of HBO Max's DC Universe series Lanterns drew approximately 7 million viewers in the United States within its first three days. The series, starring Aaron Pierre and Kyle Chandler, also amassed around 550 million minutes watched for the week on the acquired series streaming rankings.
Those numbers are part of a broader pattern of strong performance for the show. Lanterns has averaged around 12 million viewers per week in the United States, and roughly 19 million viewers globally, according to the same data.
The figures arrive as the first season nears its climax. Lanterns premiered to critical acclaim in August, and the latest episode's three-day haul places it among the more-watched titles on the acquired series streaming chart for the week.
A crowded DC slate
HBO has leaned on a deep bench of genre titles in recent years, including House of the Dragon, The Penguin, and an upcoming Harry Potter series. Lanterns now sits alongside those shows as a key piece of the DC Universe lineup on HBO Max.
Collider reported the Nielsen figures. Whether the show can hold its audience through the season finale will be the next test for HBO and the DC Universe.
