The Netflix original series “The Lincoln Lawyer” remained Not. 1 among streaming household televisions, generating more than 2 billion minutes across 30 episodes for the week ended Oct. 27, according to new data from Nielsen. The show’s previous weekly viewing record was 1.85 billion minutes during the week of May 16, 2022.

“The Lincoln Lawyer” is a legal drama series created for television by David E. Kelley and developed by Ted Humphrey, based on the books of Michael Connelly. The series stars Manuel Garcia-Rulfo as Mickey Haller, a defense attorney in Los Angeles who works out of a Lincoln Navigator driven by a chauffeur.  The cast also includes Neve Campbell, Becki Newton, Jazz Raycole, Angus Sampson, and Yaya DaCosta.

With all of the content available scattered across myriad platforms, it’s increasingly rare for streaming programs to generate 2 billion minutes. To put it into perspective:

Given the numbers above, it’s also important to consider that the industry was dealing with the Hollywood strikes in 2023, and that there are still two (historically large) months of streaming viewership to report in 2024.

At No. 2 overall, catalog episodes of sci-fi drama “Lost” on Hulu and Netflix generated 1.033 billion minutes across 121 episodes, following its reappearance in the Top 10 during the previous week, ended Oct. 20.

The show’s binge-ability was certainly a factor, as viewers who watched at least 30 minutes, averaged 10.7 episodes each across the week. “Lost” has a long history of on-demand viewership, though, dating back to the early days of the video iPod in 2005, when fans would download episodes from iTunes to get their fix, according to Nielsen.

Tyler Perry, who has first-look film and TV deals with Netflix, saw his most recent drama series, “Beauty in Black,” launch to a solid start with 740 million viewing minutes across eight episodes, placing No. 3 on the originals chart and No. 8 overall. Its viewing was driven by a majority Black audience (74%), and 20% of its viewers fell into the 18-34-year-old range.

New to the originals chart was “Territory,” an Australian contemporary western series, which hit Netflix on Oct. 24 and generated 429 million viewing minutes across six episodes to rank No. 8 on the originals chart. The audience skewed a bit older, with 63% of viewers falling into the over 50-year-old range, with Hispanic viewers comprising 35% of the audience.

True crime documentary “This is the Zodiac Speaking” (also Netflix) cracked the original rankings, posting 379 million minutes across three episodes at No. 10.

Netflix’s Woman of the Hour maintained its top position on the movie chart with 653 million minutes. New charters included Kung Fu Panda 4 with 499 million minutes, which jumped to Netflix after an exclusive window on Peacock, horror thriller Don’t Move (Netflix) at 452 million, and Indonesian action drama The Shadow Strays (Netflix), with 206 million minutes.

Shadow Strays had the highest concentration of Asian viewers (10%) out of all ranked titles this week.

Finally, the return of catalog episodes of “Supernatural” on the acquired chart marked the first time the cult favorite made Top 10 this year. The No. 10 position with 497 million minutes across 326 episodes, marks the show’s 128th chart appearance and stands as the fifth most-charted show ever.
