Bella Ramsey Is Using Their Spotlight for the Planet
‘Severance’ also scores its best numbers to date for the week of its season two finale.
Netflix’s word-of-mouth breakout Adolescence climbed to the top of the U.S. streaming charts in late March.
The four-part miniseries, which has climbed the streamer’s all-time rankings in recent weeks, drew 1.44 billion minutes of viewing for the week of March 17-23, according to Nielsen. It displaced the previous week’s leader, Moana 2, from the top overall spot — although the Disney movie didn’t fall far, finishing third overall with 1.13 billion viewing minutes.
In between them was Netflix’s murder mystery-comedy The Residence, which premiered March 20 and racked up 1.36 billion minutes of watch time in its first four days. Prime Video’s Reacher ran its billion-minute streak to five weeks, adding another 1.1 billion to its tally. (Nielsen has already said Reacher was the most streamed show in the U.S. in March.)

Also of note among series: The Pitt made its chart debut with 466 million minutes of viewing for Max, becoming one of just a few Max originals to make the Nielsen rankings in their five-year history. Apple TV+’s Severance also hit a high with 876 million minutes for the week of its season two finale, which bowed on March 21.
Two Oscar-winning movies also hit the charts for the week of their streaming debuts. Wicked amassed 905 million minutes of watch time for Peacock after premiering on the platform on March 21, and best picture honoree Anora snagged 259 million minutes for Hulu.
Nielsen’s streaming ratings cover viewing on TV sets only and don’t include minutes watched on computers or mobile devices. The ratings only measure U.S. audiences, not those in other countries. The top streaming titles for March 17-23, 2025, are below.
