Kristen Bell and Adam Brody in ‘Nobody Wants This’ Stefania Rosini/Netflix Logo text Netflix’s rom-com series Nobody Wants This attracted more viewing in its second week, moving up one spot to second overall in Nielsen’s weekly streaming charts. The series starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody drew 1.21 billion minutes of watch time for the week of Sept. 30-Oct. 6, a 16 percent improvement on its premiere week. It also moved up one spot in the overall rankings, as the prior week’s second-place title, Inside Out 2, dropped by 50 percent to a still strong 908 million minutes of viewing on Disney+. Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story finished first overall for the third consecutive week with 1.41 billion minutes of viewing, down about 41 percent week to week. Netflix’s dating show Love Is Blind returned to the charts with a billion-minute week; its seventh season premiered on Oct. 2. Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power debuted its season two finale on Oct. 3, but due to what Nielsen calls an “operational issue,” data for that episode is being reprocessed and won’t be available for another week or two. The other 15 episodes of the show totaled 527 million minutes of viewing for the week; in the prior five weeks the series averaged about 869 million minutes. The Great British Baking Show (430 million minutes) and Unsolved Mysteries (352 million) also rejoined the top 10 original series with new seasons.
