Netflix repeatedly gives insights into the click numbers of in-house productions.
This also makes it known which series have been watched by most of the users.
In 2020
Netflix introduced
the top 10 *.
With this ranking, users can see which productions are viewed most frequently every day.
Films or series are often in first place over several days. This in turn could be an indication of a record number of clicks.
However, the streaming service does not reveal the exact numbers of all content.
Values are usually only made public when they are particularly high.
In addition, Netflix has a questionable system for counting the amount of viewers.
In the first 28 days after the publication of an in-house production, it is considered a click if a user only stays with it for a few minutes.
So the following numbers do
not show
how many people have completely watched a series.
In addition, the ranking could be incomplete if Netflix concealed the high number of clicks on a series.
The values of the following five productions also only relate to the sums of clicks that were calculated one month after the start of the season.
Netflix: The five most watched series of the streaming service
"Bridgerton" (Season 1)
: Netflix recently announced that "Bridgerton" broke the record for the most-watched series.
82 million households worldwide are said to have seen or clicked on the series within the first 28 days.
This allowed the historical productions to push back the previous front runner "The Witcher".
"The Witcher" (1st season)
: Since the beginning of 2021, "The Witcher" has been in second place with 76 million viewers. However, the fantasy spectacle with Henry Cavill as Geralt von Rivia will soon have a 2nd season.
Perhaps the sequel can take back first place from "Bridgerton".
"Lupine" (1st season)
: The crook series "Lupine" with Omar Sy started in January 2021 on Netflix.
The streaming service assumed that around 70 million viewers would have seen the series within the first 28 days.
It is currently not known whether this figure has stayed the same.
If so, the production is in third place of the most watched series.
"House of Money" (4th season)
: The latest season of "House of Money" is said to have topped all previous seasons.
A Netflix report found that 65 million viewers worldwide watched the latest episodes.
So the bank robber hit is just ahead of "Stranger Things".
"Stranger Things" (3rd season)
: Anyone who thought that the Netflix classic "Stranger Things" had to be in the top 3 is wrong.
Among other things, the magazine
Variety
reported at the time of 64 million viewers who watched the third season.
However, it should be noted that Netflix evaluated the numbers differently in 2019.
It counted as a click as soon as you watched at least 70 percent of an episode.
Since the streaming service has been in effect since the end of 2019 if viewers only spend a few minutes on a series, the season might come to a much higher value according to the new counting method.
