Welcome back to another deep dive into the Netflix Top 10s! For the week of April 13th to April 19th, 2026, the charts are painting a fascinating picture of unexpected surges and surprising stumbles. While international titles like France\u2019s Bandi and South Africa\u2019s 180 are showing massive momentum, some highly anticipated English-language returns are facing a much tougher crowd. From the unexpectedly quiet debut of BEEF Season 2 to the nepotism-fueled discourse surrounding the teen comedy Roommates\u2014not to mention War Machine aggressively marching its way into the all-time record books\u2014there is a ton of ground to cover. Let\u2019s break down the biggest winners, the steadiest holds, and the most notable drops of the week.<\/p>\n

Apologies for the lateness of this top 10 report! Netflix was super slow to update its site last night, and even this morning, its downloads still aren\u2019t working.<\/p>\n

We did manage to get one big story about the top 10s this week, and that\u2019s the fact that BEEF returned for its second season and made the second-worst debut for an English-language series of the year<\/a>, and has really been struggling in the top 10s. It\u2019s down about 60% from season 1, with the first season eventually getting good word of mouth, so we\u2019ll see if that plays out again here.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Documentaries had a busy week in the new releases, but not all managed to break into the top 10s. Sadly, A Gorilla Story: Told By David Attenborough<\/a> was notably absent, as was the latest Untold entry and Noah Kahan: Out of Body.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Director<\/p>\n

Now, onto the other big stories!<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s see how this week ranks against Netflix\u2019s prior weeks in the top 10s<\/a>:<\/p>\n

English TV: 35,000,000 views (Rank 129 of 148 weeks)
\nEnglish Film: 77,900,000 views (Rank 64 of 148 weeks)
\nNon-English TV: 28,700,000 views (Rank 69 of 148 weeks)
\nNon-English Film: 22,700,000 (Rank 123 of 148 weeks)<\/p>\n

1. Roommates put in a fairly low debut<\/p>\n

Screeners weren\u2019t sent out for this movie, which is never a good sign in advance, but the end result was that it actually got a lot of warm reviews despite being an obvious punching bag for nepotism involving Sandler\u2019s daughters and Ted Sarandos\u2019 sons, who both worked on the flick.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Amongst peers in the same genres over the last few years, it ranks towards the bottom of the pile with 8.8M views for its 15.7M hours, good enough for third spot on the charts.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

2. Thrash vs Other Hit 2026 Movies<\/p>\n

Last week, we covered the excellent debut for\u00a0Thrash, and in week two, viewing hours declined 8%, which is a pretty good hold for a genre like this, but you can see it\u2019s more frontloaded than two of the other action movie launches of 2026, despite being in touching distance in week 1.\u00a0<\/p>\n

3. War Machine Should Enter All-Time Top 10<\/p>\n

\"Alan<\/p>\n

War Machine. (L-R) Stephan James as 7 and Alan Ritchson as 81 in War Machine. Cr. Ben King\/Netflix \u00a9 2026.<\/p>\n

While on the subject of War Machine, let\u2019s check in with its progress against Damsel for that #10 spot in Netflix\u2019s all-time most-watched list<\/a>. Well, it should get there. It\u2019s been close for weeks, but the movie has much better staying power than Damsel and will likely knock it from its #10 spot, and we can even safely say it will push down The Gray Man. Will it be able to take the #8 spot from Leave the World Behind? That\u2019s a little less clear right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n

By our estimates, War Machine should end up somewhere in the 137 million to 139 million views range. As a reminder, Damsel ended its run with 138M views and The Gray Man with 139.3M views. Super super close.\u00a0<\/p>\n

4. Where is that XO, Kitty Season 4 Renewal?<\/p>\n

We\u2019re now three weeks into the XO, Kitty season 3 run in the top 10s, and the series suffered a 61% drop in viewing hours this past week and while the gap started small between prior seasons in week 1, it\u2019s become a bit more pronounced this many weeks in but still nothing to be concerned about for a season 4 renewal, at least in our opinion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As of right now, season 3 is currently behind season 2 by 12% and season 1 by 27%. Very good holds, but we suspect we might be closing in on a final season in either season 4 or 5.\u00a0<\/p>\n

5. Bandi from France is a win!<\/p>\n

The French series Bandi is on a charge, with viewing hours jumping 150% in its second week in the charts and showing strong momentum in the daily top 10s around the world. There aren\u2019t too many French series releases on a Thursday to compare it to, but it\u2019s doing quite well, though naturally nowhere near the heights of Lupin.<\/p>\n

6. Bloodhounds Season 1 vs Season 2<\/p>\n

We haven\u2019t covered the K-drama return of Bloodhounds in our top 10 reports yet, but let\u2019s right that wrong now, and it\u2019s an interesting race so far. While season 2 started a little above season 1 in the opening weeks, that gap has now closed down significantly to the point where they\u2019re neck and neck in week 3. Overall, a very good return 3 years down the line.\u00a0<\/p>\n

7. 180 for South Africa<\/p>\n

Elsewhere on the English movie chart, Netflix\u2019s new South African action movie 180 managed to take the second spot and with its debut of 9.5M views, that gives it second spot on Netflix\u2019s movie launches from the region on a Friday.<\/p>\n

8. The Law According to Lidia Po\u00ebt from Netflix Italy and Fake Profile from Columbia<\/p>\n

Back for its third and final season, the Italian period drama has had a solid lifetime run on Netflix, but the writing was firmly on the wall. As we covered during the Season 2 launch, the series suffered a massive viewership drop from its breakout first season, making it incredibly lucky to secure a Season 3 renewal at all. Looking at the opening numbers, Netflix\u2019s decision to cap the series here was definitely the right call, with Season 3 debuting slightly lower than its predecessor.<\/p>\n
