‘Wednesday’ knocked out of first place in Netflix top 10 by comedy-drama

For six weeks Wednesday (2022‑ ) holds the title of best-watched Netflix series of the moment. Ginny & Georgia (2020‑ ) season 2 has been on the streaming service for just over a week and has overtaken Wednesday in its first week.

Wednesday steps aside

Ginny & Georgia has taken over the number 1 spot held by Tim Burton’s production Wednesday for so long. The figures are based on hours watched, with each season of a series counted separately. This means that Ginny & Georgia Season 2’s total hours watched has surpassed Wednesday’s watch time for the week of January 2-8. It is not surprising because Wednesday became a hit on both Netflix and social media almost immediately after release. Few may have missed the series and by now most who are interested will have already completed the series.
