\tLove Island<\/a> USA<\/em> has gotten off to a fast start with Peacock<\/a> viewers.<\/p>\n

\tThe NBCUniversal-owned streamer says the first three days of season eight<\/a> have pulled in 824 million viewing minutes, a record for any Peacock original series over that length of time. That figure is up by a robust 74 percent compared to the first three days of last year\u2019s season. <\/p>\n

\tPeacock also says that 23 percent of Love Island<\/em> viewing so far this week came from mobile devices, based on its internal data. That equates to about 190 million minutes of watch time, with the other 634 million or so minutes coming from TV screens. \t<\/p>\n

\tAt that pace, Love Island USA<\/a><\/em> is set to blow past its first-week totals from last season. Per Nielsen, viewers spent 772 million minutes<\/a> watching the series in its premiere week in 2025. Nielsen\u2019s streaming ratings<\/a> only cover TV-set viewing, and its methodology differs from Peacock\u2019s internal data. Still, if the two measurements are anywhere near each other, the start of season eight will easily surpass season seven\u2019s opening.<\/p>\n

\tSeason seven of Love Island USA<\/em> was one of the biggest original streaming series of 2025. Nielsen figures put the show at 13.46 billion minutes of viewing for the year (including time spent on prior seasons), while NBCUniversal\u2019s first-party data showed more than 18 billion minutes<\/a> of viewing including all mobile devices. <\/p>\n

\tEpisodes of Love Island USA<\/em> stream six days a week (every day except Wednesday). ITV America produces the seires in association with Lifted Entertainment and WPP Media\u2019s Motion Entertainment. David George, Adam Sher, Jordana Hochman, Bernie Schaeffer, Ben\u00a0Thursby-Palmer, James Barker, Blake Garrett, Courtney Rosenthal, Sophie Brown, Richard Cowles,\u00a0Mike Spencer, Tom Gould, Ali\u00a0Hill\u00a0and Martin Oxley\u00a0are the executive producers.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
