‘Paradise’ Debuts At No. 5 Among Nielsen Streaming Originals; ‘The Night Agent’ & ‘The Recruit’ Soar Atop Overall Charts


The Night Agent and The Recruit led Nielsen's streaming charts during the week of January 27 to February 2

Political thrillers have been all the rage recently and, interestingly, Nielsen points out that Paradise attracted 58% of its audience from the 35-64 demo, like Night Agent and Recruit, but drew a larger share of Black viewers than the other two. Despite Season 2’s debut during this week, The Recruit couldn’t best the Shawn Ryan thriller, coming in with 1.2B minutes viewed across its 14 episodes. As usual, most of the overall list was dominated by licensed content like Grey’s Anatomy and NCIS, but Prime Video also broke through the noise with its new romcom You’re Cordially Invited.
