New Netflix Animated Series Dethrones You & Squid Game as Top TV Show

Netflix’s Top 10 has had a major shake-up occur on the platform over the weekend as the new season of the streamer’s hit animated series Big Mouth has rocketed to the #1 position in the United States. With the latest batch of episodes of Big Mouth taking the top spot it results in the two most popular shows on Netflix for the past month falling down the list as You is now sitting at #2 and the international hit Squid Game tumbled to #3. Since the Korean original drama premiered it quickly became the most popular Netflix original series in the history of the streaming service.

The two hit titles also fell on the main Top 10, a combo of the top movies and shows, as the feature films The Harder They Fall and lovehard are #1 and #2 on the platform. With Big Mouth sitting at #3 on Netflix that puts You at #4 and Squid Game at #5, its lowest position in the US Top 10 since it premiered. Taking into account these originals making up the Top 5 it’s almost surprising that the rest of the list is also almost exclusively Netflix originals, almost. The #6 most popular title on the streaming service in the US? Sony Pictures’ meta-reboot of 21 Jump Street starring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum, itself previously the #2 movie on the platform.
