3 Body Problem pushed its way to the top of Netflix‘s TV charts.
In its first full week on the streamer, the series managed 15.6M views — up quite substantially from its debut weekend to make it not only top dog among TV but also the most-watched title on Netflix from March 25 to 31.
It’s a bit too early to put it in contention for a spot on the most popular list, since it only has 26M of the 83M views it would need to make it. How it performs over the next few weeks will be very telling about its chances.
Meanwhile, The Gentlemen fell from grace a bit, coming in at No. 3, down from first place the week prior, with 7.8M views.
Avatar: The Last Airbender also spent its sixth week on the list with 2.8M views, putting it in fifth place. Speaking of the most popular list, Avatar is probably one to watch. At this point, the series is approaching 60M total views since it debuted on February 22. It has until May 23 to eclipse The Witcher‘s 83M views.
This is totally doable for this series, considering it has continued to deliver Top 10-worthy viewership over the last month and a half. However, Avatar would need to sustain its current viewership for the next few weeks in order to hit that threshold. Time will tell.
Making their list debuts were the docudrama Testament: The Story of Moses in second with 13.5M views, Season 2 of Buying Beverly Hills in eighth place with 1.9M views, and stand-up special Dave Attell: Hot Cross Buns in tenth with 1.5M views.
On the film side, Heart of the Hunter rose to No. 1 on the English-language list with 11M views. Lindsay Lohan’s flick Irish Wish clocked another 10.5M views, putting it at No. 2. Millie Bobby Brown’s Damsel took home third with 10.3M views.
Regina King’s Shirley, which tells the story of Shirley Chisholm and her trailblazing US presidential run, drew 4.1M views, putting it at No. 6.
