Echo Binge Hits Nielsen Streaming Chart at No. 4, Ted Also Debuts in Top 10

For a second straight week, Netflix’s Fool Me Once again easily topped Nielsen’s U.S. ranking of streaming originals, this time amassing 2.4 billion minutes viewed across its eight episodes.

For the week of Jan. 8, Prime Video’s Reacher similarly held steady at No. 2 with north of 1 billion minutes viewed across 15 available episodes — its fifth straight billion-minute haul. It was followed by Netflix’s The Brothers Sun (960 million minutes viewed/eight episodes), the chart debut of Disney+’s Echo (731 million minutes viewed for its five-episode binge drop) and Disney+’s newly renewed Percy Jackson and the Olympians (up a spot with 618 million minutes/five available episodes).
