It’s Official! Famous in Love is a Breakout Hit

Last week, we introduced you to your newest guilty pleasure, Famous in Love. The series—based on the bestselling novels by Rebecca Serle—follows the life of Paige Townsen and her sudden rise to fame. In its opening week, the show amassed over 10.3 million views across TV and digital platforms. Yes, 10.3 million! Can you say, wowza? It’s the strongest digital start ever for a series in the network’s history! But that’s not all. We’ve included some more impressive stats below:

  • The first person to finish binge-watching the series did so at 3:29 A.M. EDT on April 19
  • 72% of audiences who binge-watched the series finished it within two days
  • It’s the No.2 scripted cable TV telecast in Females 12-34, only behind Pretty Little Liars

Can we start counting the days until Famous in Love season two? It seems like a safe bet now. If you finished binge-watching the show, tell us your favorite moment in the comments below!
