If you want to make sure you’ve seen all of this year's most popular TV shows, this streaming guide is for you! We've dug deep into JustWatch's streaming data over the last twelve months so we can unveil the most popular TV shows on streaming services throughout 2024 and show you where to stream them online.

What was the most popular TV show to stream in 2024?

According to JustWatch’s popularity score throughout the last twelve months, Shōgun was this year’s most popular TV show on streaming services in the United States. The global hit, which was produced by Hulu and aired exclusively on the platform, beat the likes of Amazon’s hit video-game adaptation Fallout (#2) and Hulu’s other extremely successful show, The Bear (#3).

Shōgun is an adaptation of James Clavell’s 1975 novel of the same name, which was previously adapted into a popular mini-series in 1980. The historical drama follows John Blackthorne, an English sailor, as he lands on Japanese shores and becomes embroiled in the county’s political turmoil. The TV show is a historical fiction but takes inspiration from real-world events, most notably the English navigator William Adams and his journey to becoming a samurai under Tokugawa Ieyasu.

In addition to taking the #1 spot as this year’s most popular TV show, Shōgun is also the only non-English language TV show to break into the top ten. The show includes scenes in Japanese, English and Portuguese and even uses miscommunication and translation as an important storytelling tool. Shōgun and Fallout are also the only two shows to make the top ten list with their first season.

What was the most popular movie to stream in 2024?

According to JustWatch’s popularity score throughout the last twelve months, Alex Garland’s dystopian thriller Civil War was this year’s most popular title on streaming services in the United States. The movie was released in theaters on April 12, grossing $68 million domestically, and was released on streaming services shortly after. The A24-produced movie starring Kirsten Dunst beat the likes of Oppenheimer (#2), Poor Things (#3) and Dune: Part Two (#4) to the top spot.

This year’s most popular movies on streaming services shows that streamers in the United States are interested in watching acclaimed non-English language movies; Three of the year’s most popular streaming titles were not predominantly in English, including Godzilla Minus One (Japanese), Anatomy of a Fall (German/English/French) and The Zone of Interest (German). Interestingly, these were also the non-English language titles nominated in popular categories at the Academy Awards in 2024. There is also a strong correlation between streamers’ preferences and the nominations for Best Picture at the Oscars; Six of the top ten most popular streaming titles this year were nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars back in March 2024.

There is also a noticeable trend of live-action movies outperforming animation, in contrast to the year’s domestic box office which featured four animated movies in 2024 (Inside Out 2, Despicable Me 4, Moana 2, Kung Fu Panda 4).
