‘Stranger Things’ Dethroned by Netflix’s Big Surprise Hit

Stranger Things was streaming’s most-watched show for seven consecutive weeks after it debuted its Season 5 on Netflix in November—but a surprising six-episode limited series knocked it out of its top spot for the first time.

Crime thriller His & Herstook over the number one spot as the most-streamed show following its Jan. 8 premiere, according to new Nielsen numbers reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

The site reports that between Jan. 12-18, the series, which stars Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal, pulled in 2.24 billion viewing minutes, while Stranger Things fell to 1.91 billion. The one-season series follows two estranged spouses who each suspect the other of murdering an old acquaintance.
