Mr. & Mrs. Smith Makes Nielsen Streaming Chart Debut in No. 2 Spot
Netflix’s Griselda claimed the top spot for a second straight week on Nielsen’s latest U.S. ranking of streaming originals.
For the week of Jan. 29, the Sophia Vergara starrer amassed north of 1.7 billion minutes viewed across its six episodes. It was followed, distantly, by the chart debut of Prime Video‘s Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which racked up 964 million minutes viewed with its eight-episode binge drop.
Nielsen notes that Mr. & Mrs. Smith (and the Prime Video movie The Underdoggs) had the highest percentage of Black viewers during this measurement interval, with a third of the former’s coming from Black homes.
Disney+’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians placed No. 3 with 575 million minutes viewed across eight episodes, followed by Netflix’s Fool Me Once (471 million minutes/eight episodes) and Netflix’s Alexander: The Making of a God (435 million minutes/six episodes).
Rounding out the Top 10 originals for the week of Jan. 29 were Netflix’s Love on the Spectrum U.S. (433 million minutes viewed across 13 episodes), Prime Video’s Reacher (411 million minutes/16 episodes), Netflix’s American Nightmare (337 million minutes/three episodes), Peacock’s The Traitors (290 million minutes/17 available episodes) and Netflix’s Queer Eye (269 million minutes/64 episodes).

The traitors being in the top 10!!
Yes, it was also #10 last week and #8 the week before that.
I watched the first 3 episodes of Mr. & Mrs. Smith but haven’t gone back to finish the rest.
I am actually the same – really want to like it but it’s not gripping me so far. Will be interesting to see how it performs next week and if there’s much of a drop off…
We gave up just over half way. It wasnt really working
I would love to see additional streaming top tens. Top 10 binge shows. Top 10 weekly release shows. And Minutes viewed over the past 8 weeks. This would normalise binge shows vs weekly shows somewhat so it actually was useful and let shows come into the spotlight that perform well each week for overall high viewership but masked by the binge release shows of the week.
