‘The White Lotus’ Soars to New Series High Viewership With Season 2 Finale

“The White Lotus” Season 2 finale drew record high viewership for the HBO drama, scoring 4.1 million U.S. viewers Sunday.

That’s up a whopping 46% from the Mike White-created series previous personal best, which it hit with the sixth and penultimate episode of its second season on Dec. 5. For Season 2 Episode 6 of “The White Lotus,” 2.8 million viewers tuned in that Sunday night, a number calculated from a combination of Nielsen’s measurement of linear viewing on the linear HBO channel and Warner Bros. Discovery’s proprietary viewership data for streaming on HBO Max.

The show has experienced a ratings boom since its Oct. 30 Season 2 premiere, which garnered just over 1.5 million viewers across HBO and HBO Max on its debut night, up 63% in comparison to the “White Lotus” series premiere’s audience in July 2021.

Per Warner. Bros. Discovery, “Season 2 episodes are now averaging 10.1 million viewers across platforms, nearly 50% ahead of Season 1 at the same point in time and led by episode 1 with 11.5 million viewers.”

“The White Lotus” Season 2 is written and directed by White, who executive produces along with David Bernad and Mark Kamine.

HBO has already renewed “The White Lotus” for a third season, which White says he is considering setting in Asia and focusing on “death and Eastern religion.”

More to come.
