Jack Ryan Knocks Wednesday From Top of Nielsen Streaming Top 10 Chart — Glass Onion Has 3rd-Best Movie Debut
In a bit of a flex by Prime Video, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan with the release of Season 3 claimed No. 1 on Nielsen’s latest U.S. ranking of streaming originals.
For the week of Dec. 19, Jack Ryan amassed 1.834 billion minutes viewed across 24 total episodes, ending Wednesday‘s (1.80 billion minutes/eight episodes) four-week run in the top spot. Nielsen notes that Jack Ryan’s audience “skewed a bit older with almost two-thirds aged 50+, and 56 percent male.”
On Nielsen’s overall streaming chart, which included movies, Netflix’s Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery dominated with 2.2 billion minutes viewed (in just three days of eligibility), marking the third-largest movie debut behind Hocus Pocus 2 (2.7 billion minutes) and Wonder Woman 1984 (2.3 billion minutes).
Elsewhere on the streaming originals chart: Netflix’s The Recruit held steady at No. 3 with 1.7 billion minutes viewed across eight episodes, followed by Netflix’s Emily in Paris (1.4 billion minutes/30 total episodes) and Peacock‘s first-ever TV series charter, The Best Man: The Final Chapters (debuting at No. 5 with 762 million minutes viewed across eight episodes).

I am a little surprised the Santa Clauses weren’t a bit higher as this is from the week before Christmas.
Huh?
John krasinski deserved. Season 3 was the best one yet. Not surprised it dominated despite it only having half a week to make a dent in the charts.
I agree it was an excellent series, probably the best of the 3 although I have enjoyed them all.
I loved Glass Onion. Benoit Blanc was as hilarious and clever as he was in the first movie. That accent kills me.
Has your standard getting lower and lower?
This series where all the foreign spies and governments talk in ENGLISH!! So stupid..
And wednesday is not a good series too.
The standards are as low as your grasp on grammar.
Good for Peacock. I’d glad to see it finally making a dent on this list.
