June 9 (UPI) -- Starz announced Thursday that its critically-acclaimed strip club drama, P-Valley, set a record in its second season debut for the streamer's largest season over season growth.

The second season debut Friday drew 4.5 million multiplatform viewers in the United States alone, which was up 1,018% from its first series debut, according to a network statement.

The network noted that the number of viewers was based on early reporting with several platforms and additional territories globally yet to report them.

P-Valley also had the highest number of acquisitions in three years, "making it one of the best-performing series of all time."

In the second season, the strip club in Chucalissa, Miss., called The Pynk, struggles to stay open amid the COVID-19 pandemic and battles for leadership, and viewers get a deeper look into the lives of the characters.
