That includes live viewership and streaming.
On top of the premiere getting huge ratings, the following episodes have also all done very well. The mini-series audience is at about 800,000 for same day viewing.
That’s incredibly strong. As the days go by and streaming data comes in, the numbers only go up.

If you’re not already watching “The Outsider,” I highly suggest you start sooner than later because there’s no question it’s one of the best shows on TV.
It’s all about some kind of demon possessing people and committing murders. It’s one of the best shows we’ve seen in a very long time, and it’s the latest example of Mendelsohn being an elite acting talent.
It’s generally a chilling experience whenever his character Ralph is on the screen.

The fact the ratings are so big is a direct reflection of that fact.
