Is Netflix still holding the crown or has it lost it to its growing number of competitors and broadcasting TV networks

Netflix Amassed a Mammoth of 1.33 Trillion Minutes of Viewing Time Beating All Other Streamers and TV Networks in 2021-22

The first quarter of the month was hard on Netflix. After all, it lost 200,000
subscribers. It made headlines for a slowing growth after nearly a decade. This
prompted industry gurus to take a hard look at Netflix’s abysmal situation and
conclude that it’s losing the streaming game to its competitors. But is it
really the case? Indeed it’s true that the company has laid off 150 employees
and paused several productions to cut down costs. However, recent Nielsen
reports tell a different story. With 1.33 trillion minutes of viewing time, the
streamer raced ahead of the four major TV broadcasters and competing streaming
platforms. 


IS NETFLIX STILL OWNING THE THRONE IN THE STREAMING WAR?

Nielsen data of Sept 2021 to May 2022 TV season revealed the staggering amount
of eyeballs that were glued to the TV screens. Netflix holds the #1 spot for
drawing the most amount of eyeballs. Its vast catalog and originals are one of
the reasons behind these figures.  No other streamers could beat the primetime
TV channels!

Right behind the streamer is CBS. It acquired a total of 752.8 billion viewing
minutes. The TV network has a very solid daytime presence. The Late Show With
Stephen Colbert is the most popular nighttime show on the channel – it accrued
22.5 billion minutes. CBS’s shows like NCIS, FBI, Blue Bloods, FBI: Most Wanted,
and NCIS’ Hawai’i beat Netflix’s Ozark [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ozark/],
Squid Game [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/squid-game/], Inventing Anna,

NBC follows CBS and right behind NBC are ABC  and Fox. Disney+, Prime Video,
Hulu, and Apple TV + all rank in the sixth, seventh and ninth positions
respectively. Apple + is far behind due to its small library however, it
recently struck gold with Severance. Therefore, the numbers may differ in the
next TV season.
