In 2023 the rating agency Nielsen started recording ratings for original streaming programming, with resulted in that both and Strange New Worlds have made the Top-10 (Original Programs) Streaming Chart since then. After season two debuted, Strange New Worlds has managed to occupy Nielsens original streaming top-ten listing for nine straight weeks in a row, with a seventh spot as it highest ranking. during its inaugural streaming run. It must be understood that the Nielsen streaming rating are not based on (individual) season two (episode) views alone as is commonly, but mistakenly, believed by a substantial part of the US populace, reviewers included, but on those of the show in question in its entirety, thus in this particular case including episodes from the first season as well – an understandable misconception though, as traditional broadcast Nielsen ratings are based on individual television production viewings.
