Ted Lasso season 4 opens strong but gets beat in streaming ratings
Ted Lasso's fourth season kicked off with a solid showing in the weekly Nielsen streaming charts, per TVLine.

Despite that strong start, the show landed in second place among streaming originals. The top spot went to a Netflix teen drama starring Noah Centineo that released its third season earlier that month, pulling in 896 million viewing minutes.
Paramount+'s action series Lioness took third place with 783 million minutes, while a Netflix docuseries about a tragic airline disaster placed fourth.
The overall streaming chart for the week was dominated by library titles. The Big Bang Theory led with over a billion minutes watched, followed by HBO's House of the Dragon.
