00:00 "What?" "I'm a fraud."
00:03 Suits has set another record after the former legal drama exploded in popularity in 2023.
00:12 Suits broke the record for the most streamed show over the course of a year in the history
00:17 of Nielsen's rankings. The former USA Network series, which stars Patrick J. Adams and the
00:22 Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, skyrocketed in popularity after it was offered on Netflix.
00:28 For the year, the show racked up 57.7 billion minutes of viewing, the highest year-end total
00:34 Nielsen has ever recorded. Suits surpassed The Office in 2020, which accounted for 57.13
00:40 billion minutes of viewing for its final year on Netflix in the U.S.
00:44 Suits' recent resurgence and success has even led NBCUniversal to start developing a companion
00:50 series with creator Aaron Korsh. Other year-end streaming top tens for an acquired series in 2023
00:56 include Grey's Anatomy at No. 4, Gilmore Girls at No. 7, and Friends at No. 8.
01:02 Elsewhere, Ted Lasso was the most-viewed original show across the platform's Nielsen measures,
01:06 despite running on the one with the fewest subscribers, Apple TV+.
01:10 It's the first show that doesn't stream on Netflix to take a No. 1 ranking among either
01:15 original or acquired series in the four-year history of Nielsen's year-end charts.
