The return of “The White Lotus” on HBO drew in 1.5 million viewers across HBO and HBO Max for its season premiere on Sunday. The number includes those who watched the episode during its airing on HBO as well as streams on HBO Max through the night.
The result is a remarkable 63% increase from the first season’s premiere, which was viewed by 944,000. It is, however, behind the series record, which was 1.9 million viewers tuning in for the first season finale.
Created by Mike White, the show tied “Ted Lasso” as the second-most nominated program at the 2022 Emmys and won in the limited series category as well as the limited series supporting actor categories for Jennifer Coolidge and Murray Bartlett’s performances.
