Stranger Things has beat out previous records set by Tiger King and Ozark with over 7.2 billion minutes of viewing time in a single week (May 30–June 5), according to Nielsen. It also noted that more than 75% of the show’s 5.14 billion minutes for the week of May 23–29 came from the first seven episodes of Season 4. Nielsen only tracks television viewership and doesn’t include minutes watched from computers or mobile devices, so these numbers could be much higher. Netflix says the show is its most-watched English show worldwide.
Stranger Things has also become the most watched English language series on Netflix, per the company’s internal metrics. The streamer says its subscribers have watched more than 930 million hours worldwide over season four’s first 28 days.
