Stranger Things 4<\/em><\/a>, the most recent season of the hit show, just became the second Netflix show ever to surpass a billion hours viewed<\/a>. Since the first installment of the season dropped on May 27th, viewers have spent a cumulative 1.15 billion hours watching the season\u2019s nine episodes, including 301 million hours just this past weekend. That makes Stranger Things 4<\/em> the second most-watched Netflix season ever, after Squid Game <\/em>in 2021. It was in Netflix\u2019s Top 10 in 93 different countries this weekend, the company says. The show is so popular right now that it\u2019s boosting the older seasons, too: all four Stranger Things<\/em> seasons were in Netflix\u2019s six most-watched shows over the weekend, with only The Umbrella Academy<\/em> able to keep up.<\/p>\n

Netflix\u2019s viewership measurement<\/a> system is notoriously weird and confusing. The service tracks how much a show is viewed in the first 28 days after its release, but those numbers vary widely based on how the episodes are released, how long they are, and a bunch of other factors. <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

If anything, you could argue that Stranger Things<\/em>\u2019 success just underscores how huge Squid Game<\/em> really was: Stranger Things 4<\/em> is hours longer than Squid Game<\/em> and had a months-long marketing strategy behind it, and Squid Game <\/em>still trumped it<\/a> with 1.65 billion hours viewed. Stranger Things<\/em> could still catch it, though; Netflix\u2019s numbers will no longer count the first batch of episodes, but the most recent two still have a few weeks to pick up viewer hours. Those episodes are long, too \u2014 like, long-movie long \u2014 which gives the show an even better shot at the top spot. (Like I said, the measurement is confusing.) <\/em><\/p>\n

So you shouldn\u2019t read too much into the specifics other than to say with great confidence that the current season of Stranger Things<\/em> is very popular. It\u2019s also very good, and sets the show up for a huge conclusion next season. And it\u2019s the kind of enduring franchise that Netflix has been desperate to build in recent years, so you should expect the company to keep pulling out all the stops to make people care about what happens in Hawkins, Indiana. <\/p>\n

So you can only assume that Stranger Things 5<\/em> is going to be huge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
