Netflix could have another word-of-mouth hit on its hands with His & Hers. The crime thriller, led by Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal, claimed the top spot on the weekly TV Top 10 for the second week in a row from January 12 to 18.
In its first full week of availability, His & Hers amassed 29.5M views, showcasing promising growth from the 19.9M views it collected in its first few days of streaming. That puts it at 49.4M views in total for the series so far. Per Netflix, the series debuted at No. 1 in more than 50 countries and added another 20 countries to that list last week, signaling that the limited series is on a positive trajectory.
His & Hers far surpassed all other Netflix series last week, dwarfing No. 2’s Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials, which managed 9.9M views. It is definitely a series to keep an eye on in the coming weeks. It still has a ways to go before it would land on the most popular list, considering that No. 10 is currently held by The Night Agent Season 1 with 98.2M views. But, it still has 79 days to do so, and even just a few more weeks of sustained interest could easily get it there.
“The response to His & Hers has been beyond gratifying—not just in how quickly audiences embraced the series, but in how deeply they engaged with it. We always believed the show’s blend of serious themes, small-town intrigue, multiple murders, and an unreliable narrator—brought to life by an extraordinary cast and crew—could resonate,” star and executive producer Tessa Thompson and co-showrunner William Oldroyd said in a joint statement to Deadline. “We’re grateful for Netflix’s global platform, which allowed the series to find audiences around the world. But what’s been most rewarding is watching viewers sit with the ending and carry that conversation into their own communities. The dialogue it’s sparked around love, family, accountability, and what we owe one another feels bigger than the numbers themselves.”
Stranger Things still has the weekly TV Top 10 in a chokehold as all five seasons continue to make chart appearances. Season 5 ranked No. 4 with 5.1M views, boosting the final installment to fourth place on Netflix’s most popular list with 120.1M total views since release. Netflix has a complex methodology for calculating views on split seasons. Consumption of each batch of episodes is measured over their first 91 days of release, with Stranger Things 5 Vol. 1 views not counted past Feb. 24, Vol. 2 past March 25 and the finale past March 31.

On top of that, the reported weekly views during each window of availability are calculated over the number of live episodes during that window: four from Nov. 26 through Dec. 24, seven from Dec. 25 through the evening of Dec. 31 and eight beyond that. The most popular list calls for the entire viewing of a season to be divided by its full runtime. The split-season methodology gives us no way to verify the views Netflix puts up for Stranger Things 5 on the Most Popular list. Stranger Things 4 — another split-season entry — is currently at No. 3.
The first four seasons of Stranger Things remain in the Top 10 as well: Season 1 at No. 7 with 2.8M views, Season 2 at No. 9 with 2.7M views, Season 3 at No. 6 with 3M views, and Season 4 at No. 5 with 3.1M views. One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5 held onto No. 3 on the English film list with 8.7M views, too.
Speaking of films, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck‘s The Rip scored Netflix’s biggest feature opening since Happy Gilmore 2 with 41.6M views. The People We Meet on Vacation grew to 23.3M views in the week following its premiere, and apparently that’s translating to quite a bit more engagement with the Emily Henry novel it’s based on, which has seen a 515% surge in audiobook listens on Spotify.
Elsewhere, Marcello Hernández’s first comedy special American Boy nabbed the No. 10 spot on the English TV list with 2.5 million views.
