Off Campus, a hockey romance on Prime Video based on Elle Kennedy’s novels, has drawn 36 million global viewers in its first 12 days, placing it among Prime Video’s biggest debuts behind The Rings of Power and Fallout, with particularly strong performance among women 18-34; Amazon has already ordered a second season.
Paramount+’s Yellowstone spinoff Dutton Ranch set a premiere record with 12.9 million global views in its first week, and early US metrics project it to top streaming charts with about 7.25 million viewers in three days; the show also drew 2.9 million viewers on Paramount Network over three days. The series follows Beth and Rip as they move from Montana to Texas and is produced by Paramount Television Studios and 101 Studios, with Chad Feehan as showrunner and exec producers including Taylor Sheridan and John Linson; a second season has not yet been announced.
Netflix’s latest fight-night event, led by Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano, drew 12.4 million Global Live + 1 viewers with a peak of 17 million, and US viewership averaging 9.3 million with an 11.6 million domestic peak, signaling strong interest in live programming for the streamer and outperforming the 6 million Live + 1 for last year’s Taylor-Serrano rematch while remaining below Crawford’s 36.6 million milestone in a separate event.
The four-episode revival Life's Still Unfair debuts on Hulu and Disney+ with 8.1 million global views in its first three days—the year’s best premiere on the two platforms—driven by strong Latin America turnout (3.6 million Disney+ viewers). The revival also boosted the original series, which logged 18 million hours of viewing worldwide last week as the family reunites to celebrate Hal and Lois's 40th anniversary.
FX’s limited series Love Story has racked up over 25 million hours of viewing on Hulu and Disney+ for its first five episodes, a record for an FX limited series, with the audience primarily on streaming; the latest episode drew about 51% more viewing time than the premiere, and the show—about JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette—has generated substantial social buzz as it airs toward its March 26 finale.
Since its late-November HBO Max premiere, Heated Rivalry averages about 9 million US viewers per episode, a figure HBO says will rise in the coming weeks and has earned a second-season order from HBO Max and Crave. However Nielsen’s streaming rankings do not place the show in the top 10, likely because it’s classified as an acquired series rather than an original, and its limited weekly release with a smaller initial library makes it harder to amass the total viewing time Nielsen uses for rankings.
The Pitt Season 2 premiere on HBO Max drew 5.4 million U.S. viewers in its first three days and 7.2 million in the first week, nearly tripling the Season 1 launch in the same window, and the show is on pace to be among HBO Max’s most-watched returning series, helping prompt an early renewal for season 3.
'Stranger Things' remains the top streaming show in the US, while Apple TV's 'Pluribus' debuts in the top 10 following its seventh episode, and 'Percy Jackson' returns with its second season premiere, reflecting strong viewer engagement across various series.
In the United States, only 37% of viewers who started watching "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" on Amazon Prime Video actually watched all eight episodes to completion, according to a report from The Hollywood Reporter. Overseas, the completion rate was slightly better at 45%. While Amazon has called the show a hit with over 100 million viewers worldwide, insiders say a 50% completion rate would be considered a "solid but not spectacular result" for an original. The revelation comes as part of a broader story about Amazon Studios' struggle to produce a defining hit for the Prime Video streamer.
