Welcome to your weekly recap of the most popular titles on Netflix around the world for the past 7 days! We’ll be taking a look at the global top 10 movies and TV series as well as regional-specific lists such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and any other region that we find interesting.
This data comes to you thanks to our ongoing partnership with FlixPatrol.com.
Note: data is between August 9th to August 16th, 2020. The number to the right of each title is the number of points accrued for the week. 10 points for a first position and 1 point for a 10th position. This means titles added later in the week tend to have less chance to rank well.
