January 31, 2022, 7:40pm

Everyone knows that Adam Sandler projects always seem to find major success on Netflix, whether they’re originals to the streaming service or just previous titles that get added to the lineup. The same seems to go for projects starring everyone in the Sandman’s orbit. Films starring Sandler’s pals, especially those produced by his Happy Madison Productions, find ways to perform well when they’re released on Netflix. We saw it with the David Spade-starrer The Wrong Missy in 2020, and now Kevin James is the one taking the spotlight with his latest Happy Madison venture.

Home Team, which stars James as former New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton, was released on Netflix this past Friday. Unsurprisingly, the new comedy has been soaring up the Netflix ranks over the weekend, positioning itself as one of the most popular titles on the entire service.

Monday’s edition of the Netflix Top 10 shows Home Team as the most popular movie on the streamer. When it comes to the overall rankings, Home Team sits in the fifth overall position, behind four buzzy Netflix thrillers. It’s safe to say Home Team is following in the footsteps of the other Happy Madison originals at Netflix.
