Summary
- Masters of the Universe ranked No. 1 in streaming for July 20-26.
- The film garnered 1.17 billion minutes of watch time.

Masters of the Universe, a film based on the popular 1980s cartoon and toys, has achieved significant success in its streaming debut. For the week of July 20-26, it claimed the No. 1 overall spot in Nielsen's streaming ratings.
The movie garnered an impressive 1.17 billion minutes of watch time, being one of only two titles to surpass the one-billion-minute mark. This viewership figure is notable given its recent, somewhat underwhelming theatrical release.
Following closely was the beloved sitcom The Big Bang Theory, which recorded 1.12 billion minutes of viewing time on HBO Max. This marks the show's second consecutive week of achieving an all-time high in watch time.
Among original streaming titles, Netflix's comedy The Hawk and Prime Video's action comedy Ride or Die also saw substantial viewership, with 944 million and 922 million minutes respectively. Additionally, King of the Hill's newly released 15th season and Netflix's Ransom Canyon, with its second season premiere, returned to the streaming charts.
These ratings from Nielsen cover viewing on TV sets within the U.S. and do not include mobile or computer device viewership.
