The Season 1 finale of TheLastofUs pulled in record viewership numbers going out on a series high against the Oscars.
We have raved about it for a couple of months – and rightly so with the series garnering bigger and bigger numbers every week. However, all good things come to an end, for now at least. With this understanding in mind, HBO has released the season finale of its video game adaptation, The Last of Us. Throughout the entirety of its first season, the series was praised for its faithfulness to the source material while constantly enthralling audiences.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The series’ penultimate episode, "When We Are in Need" had previously held the record for the highest viewership for the series prior to the finale with 8.1 million viewers. The Last of Us was a hit straight off the bat with its January premiere attracting 4.7 million viewers and a number which as previously highlighted, continued to grow throughout the season. The new series high from its finale has seen a 75% increase from the premiere.
The season finale had the Oscars as competition for the night and its performance is commendable. It is, however, not the first time that the series has had to share and fend off competition from other major events. Then at a series high of 7.5 million, the show’s Episode 4, "Please Hold My Hand" aired at the same time as the 65th Grammys.
