The final season of *The Boys* debuted on Prime Video and rose to the top of the U.S. streaming charts.
The strong viewership for the fifth and final season indicates a high level of sustained interest in the series as it reaches its conclusion. This surge in audience engagement reflects the show's position as a flagship title for Amazon's streaming service.
During the week of April 6–12, 2026, the series logged 899 million minutes [1] of viewing time. This performance placed the show at No. 2 [1] on Nielsen’s U.S. streaming chart for that period. Additionally, the series reached the No. 1 [2] spot on Prime Video’s own Top 10 list.
Nielsen's data specifically measures audiences within the United States [3]. The rankings are based exclusively on viewing habits on TV sets [4]. This means the 899 million minutes [1] do not include time spent watching the show on computers or mobile devices [4].
The series return to the charts follows the release of its final chapters. The high placement on both the platform-specific and industry-standard charts demonstrates a broad reach across different viewing methods within the U.S. market.
“The series logged 899 million minutes of viewing time.”
The performance of *The Boys* highlights the ability of high-concept genre series to maintain a massive audience through a multi-year run. Because Nielsen only tracks TV-set viewership, the actual reach of the final season is likely significantly higher when accounting for the mobile and tablet audiences that typically comprise a large portion of streaming consumption.
