What See’s Ranking Means For Apple TV+
Thefinale forSeeseason 3premiered on Aug 08, 2025, to little fanfare, and the show seemed to be quickly forgotten afterward. However, the recent rise in viewership forSeecould suggest that there was never any problem with the program’s content; it just did not, for whatever reason, have an audience ready to view it when it started. OnRotten Tomatoes,the first season has a 44% and was critiqued for its over-reliance on gore, and how the convoluted narrative blurred the solid acting from the ensemble cast.
However, season 2 has an 83% onRotten Tomatoes, and while the third season does not have a score, reviews suggest that it continued the series' upward trajectory. When the show first premiered, viewers were probably turned off fromSeethanks to the inconsistent first season. As it came from a new streamer, viewers likely didn’t have enough trust to stick with the series and see how it turned out. Now, it seems, with viewers understanding that the show gets better, they seem happy to give it a chance.
