The Boys has been generating plenty of fan debate for its final season.
But there’s no arguing the fifth season’s popularity.
The season has reached 57 million viewers per episode globally. That’s the highest yet for the series despite only five weeks of data, according to Prime Video (using a standard that measures people watching at least a few minutes of each episode). The season also ranks among the Top 10 most-viewed seasons of any Prime Video original series, and drove the streamer’s largest three week ratings surge of any show or movie.
The news comes amid some online backlash over the show’s storylines, with some comparing the show to the final season of HBO’s Game of Thrones. Some say the show has been sluggishly paced with too much “filler” in the lead up to this week’s series finale.
