'From' Tops Nielsen's Streaming Chart for the Week of Oct. 19 to 25
Netflix's From topped Nielsen's streaming chart for the week of Oct. 19 to 25, 2026, with 1.65 billion minutes of viewing. The mystery drama was added to Netflix's catalogue on Oct. 19 with its first three seasons, so the chart reflects its first full week there. Minutes are the chart's measure: the total time people spent watching, not the number of people who pressed play.
The figure was also the largest weekly total for any acquired series in 2026, according to the same report. An acquired series is one a streamer licenses from another company rather than makes itself. Those shows often return to viewers' attention long after they first aired.
Netflix's own original series did well too. The Diplomat ranked second overall with 1.19 billion minutes, and first among original series. Its total grew about 21 percent from 983 million minutes the week before, when its fourth season premiered on Netflix.
Prime Video's The Terminal List drew 830 million minutes in the week its second season premiered, placing second among original shows. Peacock's Crystal Lake rose from 774 million to 790 million minutes in its second week on the charts.
Not every new season started strongly. Netflix's Nobody Wants This opened its third season with 725 million minutes, down 20 percent from the premiere week of its second season.
Disney+ made its chart debut with VisionQuest, a Marvel series, which recorded 490 million minutes after its third and fourth episodes came out. On Paramount+, Tulsa King logged 484 million minutes a week into its fourth season. On the movie side, Disney's live-action Moana led the chart with 579 million minutes of streaming.
Nielsen's streaming ratings count only viewing on television sets, so phones, tablets and computers are left out. They also measure U.S. audiences only. Nielsen ranks titles by total minutes watched by people aged 2 and older, and its data draw on a panel of U.S. households.
Nielsen says its Streaming Top 10 lists only platforms that supply program-level data to its systems. Viewing on other services is still counted in the totals, even though those services do not appear in the list. That is why a title's position can differ from what a single streamer reports about its own audience.
For subscribers, the practical result is simple. From has a long catalogue to catch up on, and the new seasons of The Diplomat and Nobody Wants This are now available to watch on Netflix.
