The season two finale of The Last of Us brought in a smaller first-night audience than either the season premiere in March or its first season finale in 2023.

The Last Of Us’ season 2 finale ends on a major cliffhanger that hints at the direction of season 3—here’s the ending to the season, explained.

That marks a 30% drop from the Season 2 premiere, which reached 5.3 million viewers back in April. However, Season 2 is overall outperforming Season 1, tallying roughly 37 million viewers per episode to date, up from the 32 million average viewers reached by Season 1 after 90 days of viewing.
