We knew Fallout was big, but we didn’t know how big. Thankfully, Amazon has pulled back the curtain a little on the Prime Video series’ viewin🌠g figures – and they’re eye-watering.

Fallout was watched by "more than 65 million viewers" in its first 16 days according to the streamer. That makes it the second most-watched Prime Video series of all time, being bested by only 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询💃:The Lord of the Rings: T▨he Rings of Power

While exact figures on The Rings of Powe𝓀r are limited,꧅ over 25 million people watched the Lord of the Rings prequel in its first 24 hours with over 100 million total tuning in to see how Galadriel fared on her quest in Middle-earth’s Second Age. 

Fallout, which also reached #1 in over 170 countries, did become t𝄹he most-popular Prime Video show of all time with the 18-34 demographic, however. Take 𝓀that, Sauron.

We’ll be getting even more time outside the Vault and in the Wasteland, too. Prime Video recently announced that Fallout 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:would return for a second season. The showrunners have already teased that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Deathclaws would be on the way, while the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Fallout season 1 ending surely sets up plent൲y of adventures in New Vegas.
