Define view. I'm sure they are hiding reviews on both prime and imdb because it is so good.
Also you remember that STD was also Paramount+ or whatever it was called then biggest premier and so successful, that Netflix couldn't get out of its deal with them fast enough.
The fact of the matter is, even if it is the worst disaster ever, they'd still be saying this. Now I'm sure a lot of people watched it, I watched the first episode and will eternally bear that scar as I wear the mental scarring caused by STD, but views do not translate to it being good. Success will be measured by how many people stay around for the end of the season, and even more by how many will watch sesaon 2. But I'm sure they won't be publishing viewer retention numbers.
