Wednesday's Surprise Triumph Over Stranger Things: The New Champion on Netflix's Most Popular Shows Chart
Netflix's viewership metric gets a shake-up as Wednesday takes the lead over Stranger Things on the most popular shows chart, bringing an unexpected twist to the rankings
Wednesday has surpassed Stranger Things on Netflix's most popular shows chart, marking a significant achievement. Both shows, premiered in 2016 and 2022 respectively, have become flagship series for the streaming platform. Stranger Things captivates viewers with its storyline set in the small town of Hawkins, battling against supernatural forces from the Upside Down. On the other hand, Wednesday, a spinoff of The Addams Family, centers around the main character portrayed by Jenna Ortega. She embarks on solving a murder mystery at her new school.
In a recent development, Netflix has made changes to its viewership metric, resulting in a reshuffling of its all-time list of most popular shows. The new measurement criteria now consider total views rather than hours viewed. As a result, the first season of Wednesday has officially surpassed the fourth season of Stranger Things to become Netflix's most popular show.
