Though it’s easy to forget when you’re caught up with the artful joy that is the Schwimmerssance, American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson has indeed come to its inevitable end. The final ratings for the series’ 10-episode run are in, showing that FX has plenty of reasons to celebrate while the rest of us wait for more news on the next incarnation of American Crime Story. Also, small spoiler alert: Flavor Flav owns the real version of that O.J. Simpson statue.
The critically applauded series is officially the most-watched new series of 2016, a distinction which also makes The People v. O.J. Simpson the most-watched new show in the network’s history. John Travolta’s impeccable eyebrows, among many (so many) other items of brilliance, helped the smash hit garner a 12.6 million viewer average across both linear and non-linear platforms.
