Streaming TV Rankings Jan. 16-22 2023 – The Hollywood Reporter
The premiere of That ’90s Show racked up strong viewing numbers in the United States, ranking second among all streaming titles. Ginny & Georgia remained No. 1, and The Last of Us moved into the top 10.
That ’90s Show, which premiered Jan. 19 on Netflix, had 1.59 billion minutes of viewing time for the week of Jan. 16-22, according to Nielsen. That works out to 26.5 million hours — or almost 65 percent of the 41.08 million viewing hours worldwide that Netflix’s internal rankings measured for that week.
The 1.59 billion minutes for That ’90s Show — a sequel to That ’70s Show — came in a little behind the 1.8 billion minutes for Ginny & Georgia, which threepeated as the top overall title in the Nielsen rankings. The mother-daughter drama has 7.05 billion minutes of viewing over the first three weeks of 2023.
The Last of Us, meanwhile, grew to 837 million minutes with a full week of viewing on HBO Max, up almost fourfold from 223 million minutes in the few hours after its Jan. 15 premiere (Nielsen charts viewing from Monday to Sunday in its rankings). That’s a bigger jump than House of the Dragon made (327 million to 741 million minutes) the week after it premiered in August. (Streaming figures don’t include any viewing on the HBO cable channel.)
The Walking Dead (1.1 billion minutes) was the only other show to get over the billion-minute mark for the week, finishing first among acquired shows for Netflix. Disney+’s National Treasure: Edge of History (294 million) broke into the top 10 originals the week its seventh episode debuted.
Nielsen’s streaming ratings cover viewing on TV sets only and don’t include minutes watched on computers or mobile devices. The ratings only measure U.S. audiences, not those in other countries. The top streaming titles for Jan. 16-22 are below.
