Nielsen Top 10: Suits Stays on Top, Lincoln Lawyer at No. 2 newsbhunt

Even as renewed interest in “Suits” slows down after the spark of its recent addition to Netflix, the series continues to win. The series was watched for 3.2 billion minutes across Netflix and Peacock between July 31 and Aug. 8 — a 10% decrease from the week before, and still, it took the first place position on the Nielsen Streaming Top 10.

The final five episodes of “The Lincoln Lawyer” Season 2 were released within the last four days of this viewing period, helping the series resurge to the No. 2 position with 1.7 billion minutes watched. The first five episodes of Season 2 were released on July 6 and also brought the show to second place followed by two more weeks on the chart before falling off for one week.

“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” landed at No. 3 with 1.6 billion minutes watched in its first five days of availability on Disney+. The Marvel Cinematic Universe film premiered in theaters in May.

“Bluey” was watched for 1.1 billion minutes during this viewing window, taking the No. 4 position. The animated preschool series crossed the one billion mark for the first time four weeks ago, and has done so each week since after months of regularly charting.

With 740 million minutes watched, “Sweet Magnolias” dropped to No. 5 in the second full week of availability of its third season.
