A long-running TV show with a huge library of episodes making Nielsens streaming charts is nothing unusual. It happens multiple times each week, in fact.

But a show making the streaming top 10 almost half a century after it last aired? That is a horse of a different color or black and white, as the case may be.

Gunsmoke, which had a 20-season run on CBS from 1955-75, claimed a spot among the top 10 acquired series on streaming for the week of March 3-9. The show, which streams on Paramount+ and Peacock (which together carry 404 of Gunsmokes 635 episodes), amassed 646 million minutes of viewing time for the week, good for eighth place among library shows. Not surprisingly, the shows audience skews older than the average streaming series: Nielsen says about half its viewers are 65 or older. While this is Gunsmokes first top 10 appearance, the series has been a solid streaming draw for some time. It had more than 10 billion viewing minutes in 2024.

At the top of the rankings, Reacher repeated as the No. 1 overall title with 1.41 billion minutes of viewing as Prime Video released the fifth episode of season three. That was down just 5 percent from a week earlier. Netflixs Running Point grew in its second week, improving by 30.5 percent to 1.36 billion minutes.

Netflixs Beauty in Black, from Tyler Perry, returned to the charts following the second half of season one debuting March 6. The drama had 982 million minutes of viewing. The Traitors (523 million minutes on Peacock) also rejoined the rankings for the week of its season three finale. Hulus Paradise scored its best weekly showing (705 million minutes) for the week its season finale premiered.

Nielsens streaming ratings cover viewing on TV sets only and dont include minutes watched on computers or mobile devices. The ratings only measure U.S. audiences, not those in other countries. The top streaming titles for March 3-9, 2025, are below.
