“Bridgerton” has returned to first place on the Netflix Top 10 after the debut of Season 3 Part 2. The season hit 28 million views in the final four episodes’ first four days of availability.
Viewership of earlier episodes through the entire week were also accounted for in that total, but were Netflix to separate views of Parts 1 and 2, the number would likely be even higher. Views are calculated by dividing the total number of hours streamed by a title’s runtime. Therefore, even though the majority of the season’s 223.3 million viewing hours were certainly concentrated on the final four episodes, they were divided by the season’s full eight-hour length, rather than its latter few hours alone.
Once again, Season 3 also drove viewership to “Bridgerton’s” previous seasons: Season 1 was the sixth-most-watched title of the week with 2.7 million views and Season 2 was No. 9 with 2.3 million views.
