'Stranger Things 4' Breaks Streaming Record

「怪奇物語4」打破串流紀錄

Stranger Things Season 4 has been a record-breaking success for Netflix, with the first portion of the current season having the most hours watched in a weekend premiere for a streaming series at a staggering 286.79 million. Volume 2 of the season continued this massive success with its premiere this morning leading to Netflix crashing and being inaccessible to many of its users with reports of problems with Netflix reaching over 13,000 in the early Friday morning. Now, we know that the series has once again broken a record, with Stranger Things Season 4 setting a new Nielsen Streaming record for most viewing time for a week.

怪奇物語第四季成功打破Netflix的紀錄，第四季上半輯在周末首映時以驚人的2.86億小時成為最多觀看時數的串流影集。下半輯延續強大的氣勢在今天早上首映時竟導致Netflix大當機讓許多用戶無法觀看，據悉在周五早上有超過13,000名用戶回報故障問題。現在，這部影集又再次寫下一個新的紀錄，根據尼爾森收視率調查，怪奇物語第四季創下一周內最長觀看時數的新紀錄。

For the week of May 30-June 5, Stranger Things saw a total of 7.2 billion minutes of viewing time according to Nielsen. This is the highest weekly total of any streaming title since the weekly ranking's inception in 2020. This continues the fourth season's record-breaking streak as it also holds the biggest two-week tally for any streaming show for the weeks of May 23-29 and May 30-June 5, bringing in a two-week total of 12.34 billion viewing minutes. It is also important to note that Nielsen’s streaming ratings only cover the viewing minutes on TV sets and only measures U.S. audiences, so the time that people spent watching the series on either computers or mobile devices, as well as the viewers from outside the US, were not counted in the Nielsen rating.

根據尼爾森調查，5/30~6/5這一周，怪奇物語的觀看時數達到72億小時。這是自2020年開始每周排名以來的最高紀錄。這也使怪奇物語在5/23~5/29和5/30~6/5連續兩周都是所有串流節目內的最高紀錄，兩周共計120.34億小時。很重要的一點是，尼爾森的統計只有包含美國國內用電視播放的觀眾，所以使用電腦或手機平板等裝置以及美國以外的用戶都不會算在尼爾森的統計內。

There has been no streaming show to ever cross the 6 billion Nielsen viewing minutes mark in a single week, so Stranger Things blowing past that milestone and surpassing the 7 billion mark is that much more impressive. The only other series that were able to reach that 5 billion minutes mark were Tiger King (which reached the milestone twice) and Ozark during the middle of the COVID-19 lockdowns in Spring 2020.

沒有任何其他串流節目能夠超過單周60億小時的紀錄，所以怪奇物語能達到這個里程碑甚至超越70億小時的大關，著實令人欽佩。唯一一部影集達成50億小時記錄的就是「虎王」(曾二度達成紀錄)以及「黑錢勝地」在2020春季因新冠肺炎而封城時達成紀錄。
