The film surpassed other English-language films by a wide margin, including "Family Switch" and Adam Sandler's animated film "Leo." On the TV side, comedy series "Obliterated" took the top spot, followed by "Squid Game: The Challenge" and Netflix's YA drama "My Life with the Walter Boys." Netflix also released a bi-annual report revealing viewership data for 18,000 titles, marking the first time a streamer has provided such insight into platform performance.

"Netflix Revamps Viewership Metrics, Wednesday Takes the Lead"

Netflix is changing its weekly top 10 rankings to sort titles by "views" rather than total viewing time, which is calculated by dividing the total time spent watching a series or movie by the running time. The change helps level the playing field for shows and films with shorter running times. The all-time top 10 lists are also being extended from 28 to 91 days and ordered by accounts viewed. Squid Game remains the all-time leader, but Wednesday moves ahead of Stranger Things season four atop the English-language series list based on the longer window and the views metric.
