After the arrival of Love is Blind Season 4, Netflix decided to conclude it with a 90-minute live reunion show. Surprising the audience, they announced the show will continue. Fans were excited that they will get the chance to see all the participants of the reality series in the truest form, or we can say, without any brushing or edits of the scenes. However, things didn’t turn out as planned and the streamer had to release a pre-recorded version.

But setting those live streaming issues aside, the show has won a new honor for its streamer by taking a place in Nielson Streaming Top 10.

According to Variety, Love is Blind has taken the second seat on the list of Nielsen’s Streaming Top 10. The publication revealed that the series has garnered more viewers despite the whole reunion chaos. With 1.2 billion viewing minutes within seven days, it secured this spot on the company’s chart. This record is way bigger than Netflix’s figures, which state that the new season earned 39.48 million hours viewed upon its release.

The television show also ruled the top 10 of the streaming giant, taking the fourth spot even after getting sued. The first spot was taken by The Diplomat, a political thriller created by Debora Cahn. Other Netflix titles included in the chart are Beef, Better Call Saul, Cocomelon, The Night Agent, and NCIS. On the movie front, The Snowman, Whitney Houston, The Last Kingdom, The Mustang, and Matilda were the frontrunners.
