Right behind it, other series made their mark, Pulse pulled in 6.5 million views, and video-game adaptation Devil May Cry drew 5.3 million—both within four days of release.
Further down the chart, The Residence continues to hang in strong at fifth place in its third week with 4.6 million views. The charming reality series Love on the Spectrum returned for Season 3 and snagged 3.
