A week after its newest batch of episodes put the show in second place on Nielsen’s streaming charts, Tyler Perry’s Beauty in Black moved into the top overall spot.
The Netflix drama recorded 1.36 billion minutes of viewing for the week of March 23-29. That’s down a little from 1.42 billion minutes the prior week, but with overall streaming volume down week to week, the small decline was enough for Beauty in Black to move up a place.
The Pitt (1.21 billion minutes) essentially tied its all-time weekly high for the week of season two’s 12th hour. Taking it out one more decimal place, the HBO Max series had 1.208 billion minutes, just shy of the 1.209 billion for the week of Jan. 26-Feb. 1. Beauty in Black and The Pitt were the only titles to cross the billion-minute mark for the week as the previous week’s leader, Virgin River, fell 39 percent to 970 million minutes of watch time.

Hulu’s Paradise (639 million minutes) returned to the original series chart after falling off a week earlier. Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen had a fairly modest opening for Netflix; the series, executive produced (but not created) by Matt and Ross Duffer of Stranger Things fame, came in at 486 million viewing minutes.
Also of note: Peaky Blinders (449 million minutes) charted for the first time since 2022 as the show’s finale movie, Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (292 million minutes), debuted on Netflix.
