Nielsen's figures also showed that Ozark season three drew in an average minute audience of 8.7 million viewers during its first ten days on the streamer.
These figures are only for US TV screens and don't include mobile screens, but Netflix did report in its earnings that Ozark was projected to be seen by 29 million members in the month following its premiere. Netflix's projections are based on the number of accounts that watch a given title.
Ozark stars Jason Bateman and Laura Linney as a married couple based in the Ozarks who get embroiled in a money-laundering scheme amidst a cartel war.
