Tuesday, December 28, 2021

Old people have wisdom — and now, behind-the-scenes knowledge about the making of The Beatles’ 1970 album “Let It Be.”

According to Nielsen, the Thanksgiving Week 2021 debut of Peter Jackson’s Disney+ docuseries “The Beatles: Get Back” was viewed by people primarily (54%) over the age of 55. Those golden oldies racked up an impressive 503 million minutes streamed between three episodes over their first four days. (“The Beatles: Get Back” premiered Episode 1 on Thanksgiving Night, Nov. 25. Episode 2 on the following evening and the third and final episode on Saturday, Nov. 27. The Nielsen week also included Sunday, Nov. 28.)

Those 500-million-plus minutes streamed placed “Get Back” seventh among original streaming programs that week. It did not make the Top 10 overall when counting acquired programs.
