The end of Ozark propelled the Netflix series back to the top spot in Nielsen’s streaming rankings. Grace and Frankie also jumped up the chart with the release of its final episodes.

Ozark was far and away the No. 1 title on streaming for the week of April 25-May 1 — if not quite as big as when its final season debuted in January. The show racked up 2.58 billion minutes of viewing time for the week (the last seven episodes premiered April 29), more than three times as much as the second-ranked program (preschool series Cocomelon at 767 million minutes).

The final episodes of Grace and Frankie — Netflix’s longest-running original series in terms of episodes — finished second among original streaming shows with 701 million minutes of viewing time. Moon Knight (681 million minutes) came in third for the week its next-to-last episode premiered on Disney+, rising about 8 percent from the previous week. Netflix’s Selling Sunset also improved a good amount week to week, going from 385 million minutes to 584 million.
