The rule of Bridgerton — and Shonda Rhimes — on the streaming charts continued into the first two days of June.
Bridgerton declined about 37 percent in viewing time from a week earlier, but the Regency-era drama still ranked No. 1 overall on Nielsen’s charts for May 27-June 2 with 1.38 billion minutes of watch time on Netflix. The series has claimed the top spot for three straight weeks since its May 16 premiere, with another surge likely coming when results for the second half of the season (which debuted June 13) begin to arrive.
Rhimes’ Shondaland also had two other entries on the charts: Grey’s Anatomy came in third overall with 1.2 billion minutes on Hulu and Netflix. Bridgerton prequel Queen Charlotte also edged back into the top 10 original series list, scoring 274 million minutes of viewing.
Jennifer Lopez’s sci-fi film Atlas grew by 36 percent in its second week on the charts, taking fourth place overall and dominating the movie rankings with 1.08 billion minutes of viewing. The week’s top two new series, both on Netflix finished in a near-tie: Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult had 673 million minutes of viewing, while limited series Eric, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, had 672 million. Former Showtime series Your Honor made its top 10 debut with 544 million minutes on Netflix and Paramount+; it premiered on Netflix on May 31.
Nielsen’s streaming ratings cover viewing on TV sets only and don’t include minutes watched on computers or mobile devices. The ratings only measure U.S. audiences, not those in other countries. The top streaming titles for May 27-June 2, 2024, are below.
