Despite its flaws, streaming platforms have proven to be a haven for older content seeking a second life, with Netflix leading the charge. This trend has been evident in the success stories of shows like Glee, Manifest, and now Suits. The brilliant legal drama, which launched Meghan Markle’s career in 2011, is breaking viewership records since joining Netflix’s catalog.
As the week comes to a close, Bird Box Barcelona continues to dominate as Netflix’s most-watched movie. Additionally, a new season of a popular anime has taken over the top spot in the TV chart, surpassing the return of Too Hot To Handle. This success proves that original animation is incredibly profitable and goes against Paramount’s decision to move away from producing original animated features.
Beloved Parisian Superhero Duo Finally Gets Their Movie

The adorable new scenes between the duo and the opportunity to witness their love story once again has left fans more than delighted.
Netflix Continues to Excel with Anime Releases
Following the success of Demon Slayer, which remained in Netflix’s Top 10 for 106 days earlier this year, and with the One Piece live-action show on the horizon, another anime title is currently dominating the charts. Baki Hanma has claimed the number one spot in Netflix’s global TV Top 10 since the release of its second season’s first half on July 26. The show has topped the charts in 30 countries, surpassing popular properties like The Witcher, the Korean drama King The Land, and the reality show Too Hot To Handle.
This season of Baki Hanma sees the valiant fighter Baki going up against Pickle, a man-beast frozen since the Jurassic era. Fans can look forward to the release of the second batch of episodes on August 24.
Suits Shatters Viewing Records, Proving the Timelessness of Good TV
Suits has made its way to Netflix, capturing the attention of viewers everywhere and prompting other streaming platforms to assert their dominance. In fact, the Meghan Markle legal drama set a new record for the most minutes watched for an acquired television show in a week, surpassing the previous record held by Manifest. Peacock, which currently houses all nine seasons of the show, didn’t miss the opportunity to remind everyone of its exclusive access.
Most of these record-breaking minutes were spent on Netflix after the platform acquired the show’s licensing and added it to its roster on June 17. Surprisingly, these numbers continue to exceed expectations when compared to the performance of other newer shows during the same week (June 26-July 2). The Witcher came in second with 1.31 billion minutes watched, followed closely by Hulu’s The Bear with 1.01 billion. However, both pale in comparison to the immense popularity of Suits. While it’s true that Suits spans nine seasons, compared to the three or two seasons of the other shows, these statistics clearly indicate that good TV will always have a strong allure.
