Source: IMDB
House of the Dragon made HBO history when its premiere episode, Heirs of the Dragon, brought in nearly 10 million viewers, the most successful premiere of all time for HBO. Its predecessor, Game of Thrones, only brought in 4.2 million viewers when it premiered in 2011.
HBO announced on Friday that the show had been renewed for a second season and that the premiere episode had now garnered almost 20 million views. According to the network, that number has now risen to just shy of 25 million. With this type of success, it would have been no surprise if the following episodes of the series were not able to quite reach the bar set by the premiere.

Well, the numbers are in and episode two of House of the Dragon, The Rogue Princess, not only reached the bar set by episode one, but surpassed it. According to the network, 10.2 million viewers tuned in for the newest episode, a growth of 2%. While this may not seem like much when compared to other hit HBO shows like Euphoria, the numbers are impressive. Both episodes of House of the Dragon have surpassed the viewership of all single episode ratings of Euphoria.
