Turns out, a lot of people want Nobody Wants This.
Season 2 put up another 9.4M views in its first full week on Netflix, from October 27 through November 2, placing it in first among English-language TV. Viewers were also revisiting Season 1 last week, boosting it to No. 7 on the weekly rankings with 2.4M views.
The Season 2 performance is slightly down from the first season, which was at around 26M views through its first 11 days. The second season is currently sitting at around 18M for that same interval, which is still strong despite the notable drop off.
The Witcher came in at No. 2 on the English TV rankings with 7.4M views for Season 4’s opening weekend. The latest eight episodes, which landed on Netflix on October 30, introduce Liam Hemsworth as Geralt of Rivia, taking over from Henry Cavill. It’s worth noting that this is a sharp decline from Season 3’s 15.2M views in the first four days of release.
Third place on the weekly rankings went to Season 9 of Selling Sunset with 4.2M views, while Boots continued to perform well with 3.7M views, good enough for fourth place.
Although new episodes of Stranger Things won’t debut until the end of the month, audiences are already preparing, it seems. Season 1 snagged tenth place on the English TV charts with 1.8M views. It’s likely that this trend will continue as the premiere date for Stranger Things 5 Vol. 1 nears.
Netflix’s most-watched TV show of the week was actually a Danish thriller, The Asset, which debuted atop the non-English TV charts with 11.3M views.
On the film side of things, Kathryn Bigelow’s A House of Dynamite took No. 1 again with 31.6M views, a jump from the just over 22M views it managed in its first three days.
Judging by the amount of HUNTR/X costumes on Halloween, no one will be surprised to learn that the hugely popular animated film Kpop Demon Hunters is still putting up monster numbers. It came in second place among English films last week with another 14M views, marking its 20th week in the Top 10.
Morbid curiosity continued last week with two serial-killer related offerings among the Top 10.

Among series, Monster: The Ed Gein Story hung onto sixth place with 2.8M views.
