The pandemic has made a lot of us watch more TV than normal. Netflix has been a major source for new content. Considering theaters are closed and Hollywood has cut down on new releases, Netflix has seen an uptick in users. I don’t need to say anymore because you probably know this.
Netflix added over 10 MILLION new subscribers during the pandemic, so they’re doing fine . . . but for some reason, they’re still reluctant to share any real numbers on how many people are watching their shows.
However, for the first time, they’ve released a list of their 10 most-watched ORIGINAL movies . . . along with how many times they were viewed in their first four weeks of availability. Here they are . . .
1. “Extraction” with Chris Hemsworth, 99 million views
2. “Bird Box” with Sandra Bullock, 89 million views
3. “Spenser Confidential” with Mark Wahlberg, 85 million views
4. “6 Underground” with Ryan Reynolds, 83 million views
5. “Murder Mystery” with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston, 83 million views
6. “The Irishman” with Robert De Niro, 64 million views
7. “Triple Frontier” with Ben Affleck, 63 million views
8. “The Wrong Missy” with David Spade, 59 million views
9. The Spanish horror movie “The Platform”, 56 million views
10. The teen romantic comedy “The Perfect Date”, 55 million views
I have only seen 5 or 6 of these. What about you?
