Netflix has released viewership data for 99% of its catalog, covering about 18,000 titles worldwide, in a report called "What We Watched."

The report marks a significant step towards transparency in streaming data, addressing concerns raised by Hollywood guilds. However, the report's methodology differs from Netflix's own Top 10 lists, as it measures hours viewed rather than "views." The top-ranking title in the report was The Night Agent, with 812.1 million hours of viewing. Netflix emphasizes that success is not solely determined by hours viewed but also by audience satisfaction and the economic viability of a title.
