HBO delivers another banger
The year 2024 has been quite fruitful for HBO, as the network has managed to deliver hits after hits in a row. Some of the shows have seen record breaking numbers, the latest one being The Batman spinoff The Penguin. The Penguin has managed to impress the viewers with its first episode itself, surpassing the numbers accumulated by House of the Dragon.
The Penguin’s premiere overtakes House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 1
House of the Dragon Season 2 was one of the most anticipated shows of 2024. It managed to rack up 2.8 million views in its first four days. However, despite having low expectations initially, The Penguin managed to overcome that with its first episode. The Batman spinoff managed to gather 3.2 million households in the same period between Sept. 16 to 22, as per a report by The Wrap.
