The Peacock reality series ‘Married At First Sight’ experienced a significant surge in viewership during its 20th season. Following the July 12 premiere, the show accumulated over 1.2 billion viewing minutes, representing a 94% increase in total streaming compared to Season 19. Nielsen data supported this growth, ranking the series as a top three reality program for four consecutive weeks.
