After debuting as Netflix‘s fourth-most-watched series in its first four days of availability, Tyler Perry‘s “Beauty in Black” has risen to the top of the streamer’s TV chart for Oct. 28 to Nov. 3, hitting 8.7 million views in its first full week of streaming.
That’s a 55% increase from the 5.6 million views it achieved on last week’s Netflix Top 10, when it came behind “The Lincoln Lawyer” Season 3, “This Is the Zodiac Speaking” and “Territory.” During the Oct. 28-Nov. 3 viewing window, those titles fell further down the chart: “Territory” took second place, “This Is the Zodiac Speaking” took fourth, both in their first full weeks of availability, and “The Lincoln Lawyer” landed in fifth place in its second full week.
The No. 3 title was “The Diplomat,” which returned with its second season and hit 5.6 million views in its first four days of streaming.
