Just one episode into Season 2, and P-Valley is already shattering streaming records! The highly-anticipated return of STARZ’s hit stripper drama saw viewership numbers increase like nothing the platform has ever experienced before.
P-Valley‘s season 2 premiere episode, “P*ssyland,” reached 4.5 Million multiplatform viewers over the course of its premiere weekend – a 1,018% increase from its first season – making this the most important season-over-season growth in STARZ history. The expanded Pynk Posse was clearly buzzing in regards to the latest developments in Uncle Clifford, Mercedes, and Autumn’s lives since it was also ranked essentially the most socially-engaged primetime drama across all networks during that very same time period.
The June 3 premiere also drove STARZ subscriptions through the roof, causing the best number of latest subscribers in three years, making it one among the best-performing series of all time.

Season 2, episode 1 found the women of The Pynk finding a solution to stay afloat because the pandemic drags on and money dries up. Mercedes and Autumn now share a house, but still have a little bit of a tough time seeing eye-to-eye, while Autumn and Uncle Clifford clash on the club over who’s the boss as pandemic restrictions get able to lift. Elsewhere in Chucalissa, a shakeup in political control could prove to shake things up for everybody.
“Our Pynk Posse showed up and showed out!” said showrunner and creator Katori Hall in a press release. “The incredible response to season two appears like such a present after the difficult pause of those past few years, but we’re back and we’re just getting began y’all.”
“I’m bursting with pride seeing the Pynk Posse grow and watching the sense of community and family that forms as we bring this latest season to the world. Hearing from viewers that they’ve felt seen, heard, and celebrated is precisely what everyone working on the show hoped for,” Hall continued. “With the ability to showcase our community’s resilience has been so meaningful and rewarding, and I can’t wait for y’all to return on all the way down to the valley to see the remainder of what now we have in store.”
