HBO renewed Euphoria for a third season back in February, just weeks before the Season 2 finale at the end of that month.

Euphoria’s season two premiere episode debuted as the most viewed episode of an HBO series ever on HBO Max, currently with more than 14 million viewers across platforms.

That figure was more than double the average audience of Season 1 (6.6 million viewers per episode).
