Netflix Scores With ‘You’ 2-Part Release Like ‘Stranger Things’ | Charts

The fourth season of psychological thriller “You” ran the tables with all five available episodes landing atop the streaming chart in the latest Wrap Report tracking the most watched programs across linear TV and streaming for Feb. 8-14, according to TV viewership trends collected from a panel of more than 3 million households drawn from over 25 million connected TVs, balanced to the U.S. Census.

Netflix’s continued tinkering with its release model appears to show a path forward for services looking to feed the binge-watching demands of many viewers while staving off subscriber churn. The streamer’s decision to split the fourth-season release of “You” into two parts, as it did for “Stranger Things” last summer, with the first of five episodes dropping Feb. 9 and the second batch dropping next month, appeared successful in its first week.
