Netflix’s Monster: The Ed Gein Story is showing considerable legs as it continues its stay at the top of Nielsen’s Top 10 Overall Streaming chart for the third week in a row.

For the week of October 6, the Monster anthology series had 979 million viewing minutes, ending the long-running trend of the top title reaching the billion viewing mark. The heavy presence of live sports likely contributed to the decline in streaming viewing, as the MLB playoffs, NFL and college football, Week 2 of the NHL’s regular season, and Formula 1’s United States Grand Prix were all underway.

According to Nielsen Streaming Content Ratings, Netflix had nine titles on the chart, two of which had shared distribution rights. Hulu was the other streamer to appear in the chart.

Landing in second place and making its chart debut was Poldark, with 954 million minutes viewed. The audience for the British historical drama was made up of the Adults 65+ demo, which accounted for nearly 48% of the series’ viewers.

The reality dating series Love Is Blind dropped to third place with 918 million viewing minutes. It was followed by The Diplomat, which had 911 million minutes viewed.

In fifth and sixth place were the shared titles NCIS (shared between Hulu, Netflix, and Paramount+), with 847 million viewing minutes, and Grey’s Anatomy (shared between Hulu and Netflix), with 822 million minutes viewed.

At No. 7 was the Netflix series Boots, which had 798 million viewing minutes during the week of October 13. It was followed by The Perfect Neighbor, which also had 798 million minutes viewed.

Could we be seeing the last of KPop Demon Hunters in the chart, as it dropped to ninth place with 749 million viewing minutes?

Taking the final spot was the only non-Netflix-owned title, as Bob’s Burgers continued its stay in the chart with 741 million minutes viewed on Hulu.
