So, Crystal Lake is doing well

Nice news for prestige TV horror-heads: Crystal Lake, Brad Caleb Kane’s Friday The 13th prequel series, is doing quite well, according to new Nielsen figures. The A24 series racked up an impressive 1.3 billion watch minutes in its first 11 days of streaming, making it the fourth most-watched scripted original series on Peacock. Deadline noted that, when divided by the series’ 398 total minutes (across eight episodes, all released together), those numbers come to an estimated 3.3 million views, putting Crystal Lake just behind other successful Peacock original scripted series, The Best Man: The Final Chapters, All Her Fault, and the first season of The Five Star Weekend, which is no doubt mighty company to be in. Deadline also reports that the most recent Nielsen data for the week of October 19 shows Crystal Lake ranked as the third-highest streaming original series and first-season series.
