Euphoria reaches 8.5 million viewers in a disappointing season finale
The third season of Euphoria has been an absolute flop. Disdained by critics and vilified by viewers, it seems to have only pleased a small group of fans. But that doesn’t mean it has been a failure in all areas. Hate also sells, and that seems to be the case, because Euphoria has ended up with 8.7 million views between HBO and HBO Max in just three days.

The third season of Euphoria has been an absolute flop. Disdained by critics and vilified by viewers, it seems to have only pleased a small group of fans. But that doesn’t mean it has been a failure in all areas. Hate also sells, and that seems to be the case, because Euphoria has ended up with 8.7 million views between HBO and HBO Max in just three days.
A series with good numbers
Although HBO does not provide general audience data, we do know that the first episode of the season garnered 8.5 million views in its first three days and that this was a 44% increase compared to the premiere of the second season. This represents a significant improvement over its previous numbers.
In any case, that doesn’t mean they are great numbers. By comparison, The Pitt reached 9.7 million views in its finale in the first three days since its airing. Although with a particularity. The figures for The Pitt measure only viewers within the US, while those for Euphoria measure viewers from around the world, which leaves a somewhat less enthusiastic situation for what was, until now, HBO’s darling.
While there is no news about a fourth season of Euphoria, HBO keeps the door open to the possibility. Although the end of the third season felt like a conclusion for the series, it wouldn’t be the first time that, after such a closure, a series returns with a new season. So it will be interesting to see what conclusions the network executives draw from the numbers of Euphoria. And from the lack of enthusiasm from critics and a significant portion of the fans.
