The report, released this week in the form of a downloadable Microsoft Excel file, contains more than 18,000 titles, which Netflix says is “99% watched” on its platform, which has nearly 240 million subscribers.
The streamer says “What We Watched” will begin rolling out twice a year, with an opening between January and June 2023.
Titles were ranked based on the 100,000 closest viewer times. Korean psychological thriller “The Glory” took the No. 3 spot with more than 622 million hours watched, just behind the 665 hours viewers spent watching the second season of “Ginny & Georgia.”
In a release introducing the report, Netflix says that ranking alone is not enough to compare the popularity of two shows or movies. Instead, “it’s best to use our weekly top 10 and most popular lists, which take into account run times and premiere dates, to make comparisons between titles.”
These are Netflix’s most popular shows in the first half of 2023.
