This impressive performance was just edged out by "Stranger Things," which reclaimed the No. 1 spot on Netflix with 1.66 billion minutes, showcasing its enduring popularity. Meanwhile, "The Pitt" delivered another standout week, reaching 1.19 billion minutes and marking a second consecutive series high.

On the acquired front, "Law & Order" topped the list with 669 million minutes across Hulu and Peacock. Notably, three former TNT series—"Southland," "Rizzoli & Isles," and "The Closer"—made a strong debut on Netflix, with "Veronica Mars" also seeing a bump after being added to the platform.
