‘Severance’ Reaches New Weekly Viewership High On Nielsen Charts; ‘Sweet Magnolias’ Leads Streaming

Netflix dominated the Nielsen streaming charts from February 10 to February 16 with Sweet Magnolias leading the pack.

Coming in at No. 1 on the overall list, Sweet Magnolias racked up nearly 1.2B minutes viewed in the first full week following the release of Season 4. Cobra Kai came in a close second, also with almost 1.2B minutes viewed on the heels of the final episodes.

Love Is Blind also managed more than 1B minutes viewed, and The Night Agent came in just below that threshold with 952M minutes viewed. Bluey was the only non-Netflix title to crack the Top 5.

Apple TV+ boasted its fifth consecutive week on the streaming originals chart with Severance making it to fifth place, reaching a new weekly high of 681M minutes viewed. Nielsen says 60% of viewing came from the second season, which indicates that, at this point, a large portion of the audience was either rewatching Season 1 or finding the show for the first time. That bodes well for the show’s continued placement on the Nielsen charts.

Hulu’s Paradise has also been on the charts every week since its release. During this interval, it tallied 487M minutes viewed, which was good enough for No. 8.

The Recruit, which was recently canceled by Netflix, also made an appearance, as did the streamer’s new series starring Kaitlyn Dever, Apple Cider Vinegar.
