‘High Potential’ Season 2 Premiere Audience Surges 300%
A TV show called 'High Potential' is doing really well in its second season!
The first episode of the new season, which came out in September, has been watched by a lot more people over time.
It started with about 4 million viewers watching it right when it first aired.
But as more people watched it over the next 35 days on TV and online, the total number of viewers grew to over 17 million!
This is much better than last year.
Even the other episodes in the season are getting more watchers each week compared to the first season.
The show is popular because many people watch it on different platforms, not just live on TV.
The show will return in January.
The Season 2 premiere of 'High Potential' reached 17.23 million multi-platform viewers after 35 days.
This viewership represents a nearly 300% increase from the same-day audience of 4.34 million.
Season 2 is averaging 12.38 million viewers per episode after seven days, a 19% increase over Season 1.
The show draws 40% of its live audience from sources other than its initial broadcast.
Season 2 returns on January 6 in a new time slot on ABC, with episodes streaming on Hulu the next day.
