With the usual delay between the period and the reporting in place, Nielsen has updated to reveal the most-streamed shows in the US through the week ending August 18th, 2024. Netflix continues to dominate but this week holds onto eight slots this time – though a few are shared slots.
This week, four titles have crossed the billion-minute mark as we get people getting through the last weeks of summer. This week saw Prison Break getting a resurgence with 1.6 billion minutes watched through Hulu and Netflix for its second week. Netflix scores with The Umbrella Academy coming in with 1.4 billion minutes while The Union comes in at 1.3 billion. And it’s a good week for Fire Country as the 32 episodes available nabbed it 1.2 billion minutes
Hulu continues to do well with its animated work with Family Guy and while also getting some time for Grey’s Anatomy.
Netflix has a number of shared titles wit just once crossing the billion mark this time.
