All Her Fault has got the top position on Luminate's latest streaming rankings for the United States. The Peacock thriller secured the top spot with impressive content, marking a crucial milestone for the platform.

This achievement is particularly noteworthy as it represents the first time a Peacock original creation has received the stop since Luminate nominations started tracking weekly streaming data.

The series accumulated crucial viewing hours during the November 7-13 tracking period. Meanwhile, Pluribis, which is the highly anticipated post-apocalyptic drama from creator Vince Gilligan, made a compelling entrance at the fourth spot despite having only two episodes available.

The Apple TV show delivered big numbers that exceeded expectations, especially considering technical struggles that impacted viewers' access. These two female-centric shows have showcased remarkable viewership on platforms with small subscriber bases compared to industry giants.


Impactful performance of All Her Fault

All Her Fault achieved a lot of success by releasing all episodes simultaneously. This strategy proved fascinating for the Universal International Studios production and the Carnival within Luminate's measurement system, which tallies complete viewing hours across all available episodes.

The show has already delivered a lot of engaging content and promises on its first day of availability during the former tracking week of October 31 to November 6, when it entered the Top 50 rankings at number 46 with notable viewing figures.

The series's dominance represents a breakthrough moment for Peacock's original scripted content. Previously, the streaming service reached the number one spot only twice during the summer months with its reality show Love Island.

The Luminate tracking system measures streaming work across the United States but does not calculate views in a way that allows direct comparisons between separate release strategies.


The plot and recognition

All Her Fault follows an engaging tale that keeps audiences engaged through unexpected plot twists. The thriller explores complicated relationships that maintain conflicts throughout its episodes. Critics have responded positively to the show, awarding it a 77% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

The series's comprehensible narrative and engaging performances have resonated with viewers seeking engaging mystery content.

However, technical challenges marked the series' premiere, as reports suggested the Apple TV app experienced crashes due to high demand when episodes became available. Despite these obstacles, Pluribus maintained substantial viewership numbers, making it the top performer of the week.
