TV Ratings: ‘iCarly’ Wins Over New Generation, Lands on Nielsen’s Weekly Streaming Top Ten Ratings

“iCarly,” Nickelodeon’s mid-aughts sitcom starring Miranda Cosgrove, Jennette McCurdy, Nathan Kress and Jerry Trainor, found a new home on Netflix on Feb. 8., and with that second life a new generation. Per Nielsen rating insights based on their weekly SVOD Top 10 lists, the family-friendly comedy was a favorite among the ages 2 to 17 crowd during the first week of its debut on the streamer. Across its 60 episodes currently available to watch on the platform, “iCarly” garnered 883 million viewing minutes and landed in third place on the acquired content list and in fifth on the overall programming list.

In addition to the overall programming and acquired content lists, the global marketing research firm will also be pushing out weekly Top 10 lists that take into consideration original programming and movies in an effort to provide an expanded and more inclusive look at most streamed programs for that given week.

Three programs crossed the one billion viewing minutes threshold the week of Feb. 8 to Valentine’s Day, including the newly released Netflix original, “Firefly Lane,” starring Katherine Heigel and Sarah Chalke, accruing 1.288 billion minutes. The show, which chronicles the life of two women throughout thirty years of friendship, was most popular across all viewers 2 and up. The other two programs were Netflix’s “Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel,” which was most popular among adults ages 35 to 54 and drew 1.286 billion minutes of viewing time across only four episodes. “The Sinner,” Netflix’s third victor of the week, resonated most with adults aged 55 and over, and drew in 1.229 billion viewing minutes.

Other notable insights from the streaming content lists include Disney Plus’ “WandaVision,” which showed continued traction on the back of its weekly release strategy hitting a slight increase in both minutes viewed (596 million versus 589 million) across its six episodes and kept its third-place stronghold on the originals list. In addition, the superhero series that fuses the sitcom and action drama genres together landed in tenth place on the overall programs list. Telemundo’s biographical telenovela “Mariposa de Barrio,” the first Spanish-language show to make the charts, dipped after an impressive six weeks on the charts— going from third place to eighth on the acquired content list.
