The final episodes of the hit TV show “Jack Ryan” have propelled it to the top spot on the Nielsen streaming chart. This marks the show’s highest position since the release of its third season in late 2022. The show drew an impressive 1.15 billion minutes of viewing on Amazon’s Prime Video for the week of July 10-16, which featured the release of its final two episodes. This number represents a 19 percent increase from the previous week’s 966 million minutes, and it is the highest weekly total for the show since December 2022, when the binge release of Season 3 garnered 1.67 billion minutes of viewing.
Another show that continues to dominate the streaming charts is “Suits”. This acquired series has been breaking records week after week and has now set the single-week record for a library show on the chart for the third time in a row. “Suits” had just under 3.7 billion minutes of watch time on Netflix and Peacock, surpassing its own total of 3.67 billion from the previous week. Since its premiere on Netflix on June 23, the former USA Network show has accumulated a staggering 12.83 billion minutes of viewing.
The beloved kids’ show “Bluey” also made a significant impact on the streaming charts. With the release of a new batch of episodes on Disney+, “Bluey” recorded its first-ever billion-minute week, reaching a total of 1.35 billion minutes of viewing. This achievement highlights the show’s popularity and its ability to captivate young audiences.
In the realm of original series, Netflix’s “The Lincoln Lawyer” remains a strong contender. Although it experienced a slight dip in viewership from its premiere week, with 1.28 billion minutes of watch time, it still claimed the top spot among original series and secured third place overall. Following closely behind is Netflix’s docuseries “Quarterback”, which premiered with 853 million minutes of watch time. Additionally, the season two debut of “The Summer I Turned Pretty” drew 525 million minutes, contributing to its success in the streaming rankings.
