Succession's latest episode marked a new ratings high for the series
2.5 million viewers tuned in on Sunday for the surprising third episode of Succession's fourth season

Succession’s live viewership continues to rise as we get further into its final season. With a wedding episode, many fans had the feeling something major would happen at the eldest Roy’s “sham wedding and the death of romance,” and 2.5 million viewers tuned in to watch the episode live on HBO and HBO Max. It set a new record for the drama series, which continues to reach new storytelling and performance peaks in its fourth season.
“Connor’s Wedding” brought in 22 percent more same-day viewers than the previous episode and seven percent more than season four’s record-making premiere—which garnered 2.3 million watches. Since airing on March 26, HBO says the first episode of season four has since been watched by 7 million people, per Deadline.
