Netflix's Baby Reindeer has made a significant impact on the streaming landscape, entering the top 10 in mid-April and garnering substantial viewership. The show's popularity is evident as it continues to generate buzz, indicating its potential longevity in the streaming charts. According to Nielsen's latest streaming rankings, Baby Reindeer accumulated 673 million minutes of viewing for the week of April 15-21, securing the ninth spot among all titles and the third position among original series.
Prime Video's Fallout also maintained its strong performance, recording 2.62 billion minutes of watch time for the same week. While this figure represented a slight 10 percent decrease from its opening week, Fallout's consecutive weeks above 2 billion minutes mark a notable achievement. Notably, Fallout is the first non-Netflix show to achieve back-to-back weeks with such high viewing numbers since Nielsen began tracking streaming data almost four years ago.
Another noteworthy addition to the streaming rankings was the former BBC America thriller Killing Eve, which made its debut in the acquired series top 10. Following its arrival on Netflix on April 15, Killing Eve garnered 719 million minutes of viewing, showcasing its enduring appeal among audiences.
Bluey, a popular acquired series on Disney+, led the rankings with 1.44 billion minutes viewed, marking its best weekly performance since January. However, Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon Part 2 experienced a decline in viewership compared to its predecessor, falling approximately 43 percent behind the first installment's numbers from December 2023.
Nielsen's streaming ratings focus exclusively on viewing via TV sets and do not include minutes watched on computers or mobile devices. Additionally, the ratings are limited to U.S. audiences and do not encompass viewership from other countries.
The top streaming titles for the week of April 15-21, 2024, reflect a diverse range of content across platforms. Notable entries include Fallout, Bluey, and Grey's Anatomy, which continue to captivate audiences with their engaging narratives and compelling performances.
