Taylor Sheridan's Lioness has returned with a major ratings boost, drawing 7.1 million viewers in its first seven days of streaming for its third-season premiere. The August 2 debut also ranked as the No. 2 most-watched streaming original series in the United States during its opening week. That data comes from preliminary Nielsen figures.
While Zoe Saldaña and Nicole Kidman remain the headline names of Sheridan's espionage thriller, another key figure has become increasingly important to the show's story: Jill Wagner. The actress plays Bobby, a tough CIA Special Activities Division operative who works alongside Saldaña's Joe McNamara in the dangerous world of covert operations.
