Despite being one of Netflix’s most popular shows ever, Stranger Things failed to break into the top 5 shows this decade

Even though Stranger Things season 5 came to an end earlier this year, the franchise is kept alive by a fierce fandom that believes the show isn't over. But even with so much support, the sci-fi series still hasn't managed to crack the top five shows of the 2020s.

As reported by Bloomberg in a study from Nielsen, the top ten most-watched TV shows on streaming since 2020 have been revealed. Amassing a whopping 246.55 million minutes watched on streaming is Grey's Anatomy, followed by NCIS, Bluey, Criminal Minds, and Cocomelon. Stranger Things sits in sixth place with 145.24 million minutes viewed. The list continues with Supernatural in seventh place, followed by SpongeBob SquarePants, Family Guy, and The Big Bang Theory.

The list is quite surprising not only because of how low Stranger Things is placed, but because huge shows from the past six years, including House of the Dragon, Wednesday, and so many more, are absent. However, this could just be down to the sheer size of the show in question. Grey's Anatomy has a whopping 23 seasons and 470 episodes, and NCIS has 24 seasons and 511 episodes. Now, that's a lot of minutes.

There is also the rewatchability factor. Medical and police dramas are very rewatchable. You can jump in at any time and can watch whilst folding laundry or starting dinner. The same goes for kids' shows like Bluey and Cocomelon. Stranger Things, on the other hand, requires a little more attention. The sci-fi show still holds popularity on Netflix, though, as seasons 4 and 5 sit in the streamer's top 10 English-language shows of all time, as per Tudum .
