‘Suits’ starring Meghan Markle Breaks Nielsen Streaming Record For Acquired Programming; hitting a 3.1 billion viewing streak for fans

Meghan Markle Fans Rejoice as ‘Suits’ Hits Highest Viewership Record of 3 Billion Four Years After the Series Ended

Although the former American actress, Meghan Markle
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/meghan-markle], gave her level best to her
landmark show, Suits, the initial fame of the paralegal US network series, did
not carry Markle far enough. As critics called it, the tag of a “B-list star” in
the industry stayed intact throughout the lifespan of her career. Nonetheless,
it now seems like it was just a matter of time as the popularity of the show has
transcended its lifespan. Four years after the series came to an end, the
American streamer took its wildest shot to revive a decade-old legal series. And
undoubtedly so, Meghan Markle is now having the last laugh.

The show, which was first aired in the year 2011, is now proving to be a top
player for the American streaming giant and its home platform, Peacock as well.
Netflix brought the streaming rights for Suits just a month ago. And there could
not be a better decision for the Streamer given the chaos the industry is facing
at this point. The Hollywood writer’s Strike, along with the SAG AFTRA union,
have put various highly anticipated shows

and movies on hold.

Netflix, however, knows how to turn the odds in its favor. According to
Nielsen’s record list, amidst the strike, the Markle starrer fetched a
staggering three billion viewing minutes from viewers. Having outdone equally
famous shows released in the recent past, such as The Bear and Black Mirror
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/black-mirror/], Markle’s Suits has snatched the
top spot in terms of the viewing time gathered. Shows prior to Suits such as
Manifest and The Office have also amassed screen times in billions.

None, however, have managed to serve the platform that well before. Undoubtedly
so, the fans are in for a treat. As the normal Netflix audience is delighted,
Meghan Markle fans are seemingly on Cloud 9. 


FANS GUSH ABOUT THEIR FAVORITE MEGHAN MARKLE STARRER SUITS DOING WONDERS

As the record-breaking news hit the platform, Twitteratti has hardly kept calm.
While the royal fandom hailed Meghan Markle as a multitasker, being an actress,
Princess, all in one. Others took a dig at the UK royal family for not having
been able to run lines with the California talent.

Age-old fans meanwhile were finally satisfied to see Suits winning more stardom,
calling it a “Rachel Zane Supremacy”. Meghan Markle, the now Duchess of Sussex,
played the lead role of Rachel Zane in the paralegal show alongside Patrick J.
Andaman.
