The reign of “Queen Charlotte” isn’t over yet. During the week of July 17-July 23, the Shondaland title joined Netflix’s most popular titles list at No. 10 with 80.3 million views to date. The “Bridgerton” prequel series opened on May 4 and earned 148.28 million hours viewed on the Netflix Top 10 chart during the May 1-7 viewing window, making the show the most-viewed title during the viewing window. (Since the show’s release, Netflix has since changed its Global Top 10 metrics to reflect total views and hours viewed.)
On the non-english side, “Bird Box Barcelona” leads the Netflix Top 10 this week with 19 million total views. Like the original US film starring Sandra Bullock, the European film follows a similar sinister force that threatens to destroy humanity. Sebastián and his daughter begin their own great adventure of survival in Barcelona. The film opened in the No. 1 spot on the Non-English Films List following its July 14 debut.
A newcomer on the English-language film chart, “They Cloned Tyrone” cracked the list at No. 3 with 6.3 million views. The new film from writer and director Juel Taylor starring John Boyega, Teyonah Parris and Jamie Foxx follows a series of eerie events thrusts an unlikely trio onto the trail of a nefarious government conspiracy. Taking the top two places on the English films list are “The Out-Laws” with 12.1 million views, and new documentaries “Unknown: Cave of Bones” with 6.5 million total views.
“Sweet Magnolias” Season 3 quickly ended “The Lincoln Lawyer” Season 2’s streak at No. 1. Despite both recording 4.6 million total views during the viewing window, the romantic drama picked up 39 million hours viewed over the procedural’s 19.4 million. Season 1 of “The Lincoln Lawyer” also remained on the top 10, but fell to No. 9 with 2.1 million total views in its ninth week among the rankings. The second half of Season 2 is expected to arrive on Aug. 3, so the show could experience another jump of momentum next month.
“The Witcher” Season 3 fell to third place among the list of popular titles with 4.2 million total views despite garnering 20.1 million hours viewed. The series previously led the Netflix Top 10 for two weeks following its June 29 debut.
On the unscripted side, Season 5 of “Too Hot to Handle” jumped to fifth place on the chart with 4.1 million total views and pushing “Quarterback” Season 1 down to seventh place with 2.9 million views. The documentary series previously opened ahead of the dating competition, besting it in both hours viewed and views in total.
“Fatal Seduction” and Michelle Buteau’s “Survival of the Thickest” fell to the middle of the chart in sixth and fifth place, respectively. With a runtime of 3.36 hours, Buteau’s comedy adapted from her 2020 memoir of the same name earned 3.8 million total views — 600 thousand more than “Fatal Seduction” which is in its third week among the list of popular titles.
Elsewhere on the chart is “Sonic Prime” Season 2 with 2.1 million total views.
