Around 1.4 million adults 18-34 watched the “Pretty Boy Flizzy” episode making it the number one show on broadcast and cable in that demographic. It was the highest rated Adult Swim prime-time program in five years and beat out NBC’s The Voice and the NBA playoffs on TNT.
The episode’s storyline centered around a bad boy R&B singer named Pretty Boy Flizzy seemingly modeled off of Chris Brown. The next episode titled “Good Times” airs Monday, April 28th at 10:30 pm.
