Testaments Episode 4 Sees 20% Uplift in Viewership Across Disney’s Platforms

Deadline reports exclusive Disney data showing The Testaments’ Episode 4 drew about 20% more viewers than the premiere on Hulu and Disney+, with the series tallying over 11 million hours streamed globally after eight days. Because the data reflects only Episode 4’s first day, precise average views aren’t known, though it debuted in Hulu’s daily Top 15 and remains a top title for Disney’s streaming lineup. By comparison, The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6 finale logged 4.4 million U.S. views in its first seven days (up 22% from the premiere). The show, based on Margaret Atwood’s novel and a sequel to Handmaid’s Tale, follows Agnes and Daisy as they navigate Gilead, with Bruce Miller as showrunner and MGM/20th Television producing.
