HBO’s DC Masterpiece Lanterns Officially Holds the No. 1 Streaming Spot
A strong showing for Lanterns
Streaming competition remains intense as platforms seek hit shows and subscriber growth. Lanterns has kept its place at the top of HBO Max’s global chart even after its latest episode aired.
The series is based on Green Lantern comics, giving it an established audience, but adaptations do not always win over viewers. Damon Lindelof and Tom King developed the show, which has earned positive reviews from critics and audiences.
Viewers praise the leads
Audiences have highlighted the performances of Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre. The article describes viewers as praising the pair’s “magnetic alchemy.” The finale resolved the mystery surrounding Hal Jordan’s death and pointed toward what lies ahead for John Stewart. It aired three weeks before the report on the show’s chart position.
Numbers and a possible future
FlixPatrol says Lanterns stayed at the top of HBO Max’s global streaming chart during the three weeks after the finale and remained first at the time of reporting. HBO’s own figures put the show’s global average at 19 million viewers, with 30 million watching the premiere.
