"Younger" has 3.3M VOD orders to date, leading the network's VOD Channel to have its best two months ever. (April 2015 and May 2015)

Since the launch of "Younger" on VOD in March, the pilot episode is the most ordered title in channel VOD history.

Triple-digit percentage increases of likes on Facebook and followers on Instagram.

· Overall on the linear channel, "Younger" has been seen by 29M viewers.

"Younger" is executive produced and created for television by Darren Star, the entertainment powerhouse behind "Sex and the City," "Beverly Hills, 90210" and "Melrose Place," who also writes and directs for the series.
