According to Hollywood Reporter, The return of “Roseanne” last week was even bigger than what was originally reported. In addition to the 18.5 million people who tuned in last Tuesday night, another 6.6 million watched over the next three days on their DVR.
That’s a record for three-day DVR playback. The previous record-holder was the 2014 series premiere of “How to Get Away with Murder”, which gained 5.9 million viewers.
And to add, ABC re-aired the premiere on Sunday night, and another 4.3 million people tuned in. Which bumps the grand total up to 29.4 million viewers . . . two million more than the Oscars averaged this year.
Also, that’s not even counting how many people will see it on Hulu and ABC streaming.
