Selome Hailu Netflix’s dark comedy “Beef” made its debut on Nielsen’s weekly streaming rankings in the No. 4 position with 962 million minutes watched. This measurement was taken during the April 3-9 viewing window, and “Beef” premiered on April 6, meaning the series achieved that viewership in its first four days of availability. Starring Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, the first season of “Beef” is 10 episodes long. The series was originally billed as a comedy, but Variety exclusively reported it would campaign for Emmys in the limited series category. There’s still a chance the project will return, as creator Lee Sung Jin has said he has ideas for as many as three seasons. It should be noted, though, that “Beef” has since become embroiled in a scandal surrounding supporting actor David Choe and a story he told in a 2014 podcast about committing rape, which he and later his collaborators said was “fabricated.”
