The hit OTT series \u2018Stranger Things\u2019 has become the most-viewed programme in a single week as per the market research and measurement company Nielsen\u2019s newly released streaming Top 10 records, reports \u2018Variety\u2019.
The science fiction drama was viewed for 7.2 billion minutes between May 30 and June 5, which was Season 4 Volume 1\u2019s first full week of availability, easily landing in the No. 1 position on the chart.
Previously, \u2018Tiger King\u2019 and \u2018Ozark\u2019 were the only titles to have crossed 5 billion minutes viewed in one week, both reaching that milestone in March 2020.
\u2018Variety\u2019 notes that the premiere weekend of Season 4 Volume 1 also landed at No. 1. Between the May 27 debut and the end of the viewing window on May 29, the series brought in 5.1 billion minutes viewed.
Netflix\u2019s self-reported numbers for the premiere weekend, according to \u2018Variety\u2019, indicate that \u2018Stranger Things\u2019 Season 4 Volume 1, which consists of seven episodes clocking in at roughly nine hours, was viewed for 286.8 million hours – or roughly 17.2 billion minutes.
However, because Nielsen combines viewership of all available seasons, a more apt comparison would be Netflix\u2019s reporting that between May 23 and May 29, Seasons 1, 2, 3 and 4 were viewed for a combined 371.3 million hours — or 22.3 billion minutes — versus Nielsen\u2019s 5.1 billion.
Still, because Netflix measures viewing across all devices while Nielsen counts only TV viewing, a discrepancy remains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
