It’s The 1-Year Anniversary Of Netflix’s Top 10 List. During That Time, These 50 Movies Dominated The Most - Forbes

Netflix notably keeps a tight wrap on its viewership numbers. Every once in a while, the platform will release some statistics—but that practice is almost always in service of promoting a specific movie or show. And as the world’s most popular streaming service gains more and more subscribers, the latest programs will continue to break more and more records.

But there has been one constant for the past 365 days: the Top 10 list. These charts lay out the ten most popular movies and shows (there are two separate lists) on a daily basis. The beauty of this list is that the number of subscribers does not affect a movie or show’s ranking. If it’s not one of the top ten shows on Netflix? Then it doesn’t make the list.

Netflix introduced the feature back in late February of 2020. And since then, 381 different movies have appeared on the list (I’ve kept track of every one). Which has to make one wonder: which of these movies have been the most popular?

I happen to know. Last year, I was excited by the possibility of being able to track movie and show performance on the world’s most viral streaming platform. So I developed a points-based system that allowed me to rank which movies and shows had the best showings on a day-by-day, a week-by-week, a month-by-month, a year-by-year basis.

So since it’s officially been one year since the Top 10 list premiered, I thought it’d be fun to look back and see which movies have garnered the most points in that 365-day(ish) period.

27. Finding ‘Ohana - 138 points
28. The Lost Husband - 135 points

33. The Vanished - 124 points
34. Uncut Gems - 123 points
35. Peppermint - 122 points
36. To All the Boys: Always and Forever - 118
37. The Platform - 117 points
38. Homefront - 115 points
39. Mile 22 - 115 points
40. The Smurfs 2 - 115 points
41. Desperados - 114 points
42. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - 110 points
43. Outside the Wire - 109 points
44. 17 Again - 109 points
45. The Impossible - 109 points
46. Pets United - 109 points
47. Animal Crackers - 109 points
48. Drunk Parents - 108 points
49. Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey - 106 points
50. The Croods - 104 points

In the beginning, the Mark Wahlberg film Spenser Confidential dominated the list. To this day, its incredible 18-day streak in the #1 position is a Top 10 record. The longest streaks after that belong to Hubie Halloween (14 days), Project Power (13 days), The Wrong Missy (nine days) and The Kissing Booth 2 (nine days).

But, as you can see, none of those movies even make the top five on the all-time rankings. That’s because the Top 10 ranking system rewards films based on longevity as well as virality. Which is why Despicable Me—a movie that spent 111 total days on the Top 10 charts—is in first place.

We Can Be Heroes could very well reach the top spot soon, however. While the show recently completed a 66-day streak on the Top 10 charts (which is a record, by the way), the run wasn’t quite enough to eclipse Despicable Me, which has held the premier position for several months now. But if We Can Be Heroes can land just a few more days on the Top 10 list this year, then it should make its way to #1.
