Heated Rivalry Hits 9 Million Viewers, but Nielsen Won’t Elevate It
TL;DR Summary
Since its late-November HBO Max premiere, Heated Rivalry averages about 9 million US viewers per episode, a figure HBO says will rise in the coming weeks and has earned a second-season order from HBO Max and Crave. However Nielsen’s streaming rankings do not place the show in the top 10, likely because it’s classified as an acquired series rather than an original, and its limited weekly release with a smaller initial library makes it harder to amass the total viewing time Nielsen uses for rankings.
