'1923' Season 2 Premieres with Record 5.4 Million Viewers on Paramount+

The Season 2 premiere of '1923' has shattered viewership records on Paramount+, attracting 5.4 million global viewers, a remarkable 146% increase from the 2.2 million who watched Season 1's debut. This achievement makes it the most-watched original series premiere in the history of the streaming service. The season opened with a gripping storyline featuring the Dutton family's struggles against harsh winter conditions, as matriarch Cara Dutton, played by Helen Mirren, narrates a letter pleading for her son Spencer's return to Montana. The episode's success is also reflected in social media engagement, which saw a 187% rise compared to the previous season. With new episodes airing weekly, the series continues to capture the audience's interest, bolstered by its established 'Yellowstone' brand and strong performances from its cast, including Harrison Ford and Mirren. Paramount+ is yet to confirm whether this record-breaking season will lead to further installments beyond Season 2.
