The Top 10 Most Popular TV Shows On Netflix Right Now

Netflix‘s Top 10 is a new feature that highlights the most popular movies and shows on the platform in real time. Right now, the 10 most watched titles on Netflix are an eclectic mix of originals, reality shows, sitcoms, and documentaries. You’ve probably heard of popular series like Midnight Mass and Squid Game, so their ranking on the Top 10 list today won’t surprise you.

Looking for the Top 10 TV Shows on Netflix now? Well, you’re in the right place! Despite the streaming service launching the trending list earlier this year, which reveals what the Top 10 most popular TV shows are on a daily basis, it’s not super easy to find that list on Netflix itself without digging into it a little bit. We’re here to help streamline that process.

Not-so-shockingly enough, Korean horror-thriller-sci-fi series Squid Game continued its reign as the most-watched (and discussed) show around the world, with Mike Flanagan’s latest creepfest, Midnight Mass, and British drama Sex Education also sticking around.

But otherwise there was a fair amount of turnover, with newly ranking shows including the final season of the urban teen drama On My Block, the newest season of NBC’s The Blacklist, the mystery drama The Five Juanas, the true crime/sports hybrid docuseries Bad Sport, and a little show about nothing called Seinfeld. In addition, as always, kid favorite Cocomelon is the only certified astronaut. And it’s saving your American ass!

Stay tuned to see how the Top 10 changes on a weekly basis, but for now, here’s the Top 10 as it currently stands today:

10. Bad Sport
