“Love Island USA” achieved its best viewership ever during the week of July 7-13, reaching 1.9 billion minutes watched. That total marked not only a series high for the Peacock reality dating series, but the first time any Peacock show has ever reached the No. 1 position on Nielsen’s weekly streaming rankings.
Nielsen measures U.S. television screens alone, meaning viewership in other countries and on mobile devices is not included in this tally. Additionally, it’s important to note that Nielsen combines all viewership of a show into one total rather than separating totals by season, meaning that any viewership of Seasons 1-6 would also be accounted for within the week’s 1.9 billion minutes. Still, it’s presumable that the vast majority of viewership would have come from the currently airing season. Nielsen also notes that throughout the run of Season 7, which premiered on June 3 and concluded on July 13, “Love Island USA” accrued a total of 8.8 billion minutes watched, with 54% of that viewership coming from adults age 18-34. That makes it the biggest show among adults under 35 by a “significant margin,” per Nielsen.

The viewership record coincided with the final week of Season 7, with Episodes 31-36 rolling out during the viewership window. In the finale, which aired July 13, Amaya Espinal won the season and chose to split the $100,000 prize money with her partner, Bryan Arenales, while fellow fan favorites Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe were runners-up.
