The legal thriller starring Bryan Cranston, which has been streaming on Paramount+, was No.
It probably didnt hurt thatYour Honoris headlined and produced by a Netflix pioneer, Cranston.
Indeed, Cranston has been actively promoting the Netflix run ofYour Honoron social media to his millions of followers.

As we now know, that makes a huge difference, Stapf said.
(Suits newfound popularity on Netflix led to a spinoff pilot at NBC.)
We would like there to be a Season 3 but were ways away.

That has worked out well, according to Stapf.
The Paramount+ numbers ofEvilgo up because its getting additional exposure on Netflix, he said.
I sort of equate this to being similar, he said.
NCISand another fixture on Nielsens overall streaming Top 10, ABCsGreys Anatomy, are ongoing broadcast series.
Selling during a contraction
Netflix played a key role in CBS Studios expansion into streaming.
I think its always been hard; its probably a little bit harder now, Stapf said.
So its harder but its not impossible.
CBS Studios has shows in development at Netflix but nothing thats imminent, Stapf said.
The existing first season and an all-new Season 2 were released on Netflix last week.
Weve been approached a lot about that, Stapf said.
We do make a lot of really strong procedurals, whether theyd be law, cop, medical.
Were exploring that, we loved that show and that title, Stapf said.
Theres nothing imminent, but we hope to bring it back in some fashion at some point.
its always sad, and those shows were great.
Probably any other year, they would have stuck around but theres just not as many midseason slots anymore.
The studio sought out new homes for the canceled series but was unsuccessful.
The final eight episodes ofBlue Bloodsair this fall.
I think both of those are going to really elevate the strength of the franchise, he said.
We were obviously disappointed but I get it.
