The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives has finally returned for Season 2, amassing 5M views in the first five days of streaming globally on Disney+ and Hulu.
Per Disney, viewership on the season premiere is up from the first season, though the company didn’t give specifics on that.
It’s difficult to qualify this performance, since Disney doesn’t release viewing data for every title. It also frequently changes the measurement window for which it releases data, adding another complicated layer to any comparisons.
Previously, Pixar’s Dream Productions tallied 5.6M views in five days, and The Acolyte generated 11.1M in the same time frame. However, neither of these titles are likely to have the same core audience as The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, so direct comparisons wouldn’t do much good.
Disney did also say that the reality series has held a top spot on the Hulu Top 15 Today list since Season 2 premiered.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, which returned with all 10 episodes of Season 2 on May 15, follows the scandalous world of a group of Mormon mom influencers implodes when they get caught in the midst of a swinging sex scandal that makes international headlines.
Now, in Season 2, their sisterhood is shaken to its core. Faith, friendship, and reputations are all on the line. Will #MomTok be able to survive and continue to give the rulebook a run for its money, or will this group fall from grace?
The series is produced by Jeff Jenkins Productions, in association with 3BMG and Walt Disney Television Alternative. Executive producers are Jeff Jenkins, Russell Jay-Staglik, Andrea Metz, and Elise Chung at Jeff Jenkins Productions, Ross Weintraub and Reinout Oerlemans at 3BMG, and Danielle Pistotnik, Georgia Berger, and Lisa Filipelli at Select Entertainment.
