The Knuckles TV show has set a streaming record for Paramount+ on its opening weekend.
The Sonic spin-off show starring Idris Elba in the titular role debuted last weekend on 26th April and, over that weekend, amassed over 4m hours streamed. It is also the most watched kids and family title ever on Paramount+.
“The Sonic the Hedgehog fans came out in full-force,” said Jeff Grossman, executive vice president, programming, at Paramount+. “We’re so thrilled with the record-breaking performance of Knuckles and the incredible lift the whole Sonic universe has experienced following Knuckles’ premiere.”
