During their summer runs, both House of the Dragon and The Boys have experienced success. However, there was one Netflix series that surprisingly dominated the streaming chart.
The summer of 2024 was filled with an abundance of top-notch television shows, including highly-anticipated returns such as Season 4 of The Boys and Season 2 of House of the Dragon.
Despite a few minor mishaps, both shows were generally well-received, leading you to anticipate their high ratings.
According to Bloomberg Business, Bridgerton Season 3 on Netflix was by far the most popular show of the summer, as reported by Culture Crave.
Despite having the same number of episodes, both The Boys and House of the Dragon were able to accumulate between 5-10 billion minutes of viewing.
Despite this, Bridgerton Season 3 managed to accumulate an impressive 15 billion minutes during the seven-week period that Nielsen utilized to calculate their findings.
Despite concerns that Netflix’s decision to split the romance drama into two parts would hinder its success with audiences, this number is still particularly staggering.
Despite the delay of its season finale, it appears that this decision may have actually benefited the streaming service. According to Deadline, Season 3 Part 1 of Bridgerton received 5.7 billion owned impressions, making it the third most popular project on the English-language list, following only Stranger Things and Wednesday.
Bridgerton Season 3 not only surpassed its peers in viewership, but it also shattered a show record by achieving 45.05 million views in its opening weekend alone, according to a report by The Hollywood Reporter.
Despite not securing the top spot, The Boys and House of the Dragon still managed to achieve their own victories.
According to Amazon, The Boys Season 4 had a total of 55 million viewers worldwide. In addition, HBO claims that House of the Dragon Season 2 had 25 million viewers per episode.
