Meanwhile, the streamer seems to have found the right audience for its latest YA offering.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/tag\/monster-the-lizzie-borden-story\/\" id=\"auto-tag_monster-the-lizzie-borden-story\" data-tag=\"monster-the-lizzie-borden-story\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story<\/a> debuted atop the English TV list for the week of September 14 to 20, raking in 12.1 million views through its first four days of availability, which appears <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2025\/10\/monster-the-ed-gein-story-netflix-premiere-ratings-1236572590\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">on par with last season\u2019s premiere weekend<\/a> for The Ed Gein Story. But, significantly, the third season hit Netflix on a Friday, giving it one less day than The Lizzie Borden Story to amass that viewership.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tIt\u2019s truly on par with Season 2\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/tag\/monsters-the-lyle-and-erik-menendez-story\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story<\/a> opening week performance, because that title was released on a Thursday and had four days to hit 12.3 million views. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tWith that in mind, it\u2019s difficult to gauge the overall appetite for this series as it continues, though the latest suggests that it is at least waning, which is in line with <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2026\/07\/netflix-sophomore-series-slump-improving-1236984598\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the streamer\u2019s well-documented problem <\/a>retaining its audience on many of its biggest continuing series. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tIt appears the No. 2 title on the English TV list has found its audience after a modest opening earlier this month. <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/tag\/crew-girl\/\" id=\"auto-tag_crew-girl\" data-tag=\"crew-girl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Crew Girl<\/a> sprinted to 11.3 million views in its second week on the platform, more than doubling its viewership from its opening weekend. <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2026\/09\/crew-girl-renewed-season-2-netflix-1237110524\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The streamer also renewed<\/a> the frothy, coming-of-age teen drama about a 16-year-old girl who becomes the coxswain of an elite private school\u2019s all-male rowing team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe Gentlemen once again claimed two spots on the TV rankings. Season 2 retained its third place spot with 6 million views, while Season 1 came in at No. 5 with 3.4 million views.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tIt\u2019s a sleepier week in film, with Tyler Perry\u2019s Why Did I Get Married Again? leading the pack on the English film list with 9.7 million views. The Whisper Man came in at No. 2 with 6.2 million. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Netflix viewers responded lukewarm to the latest addition in Ryan Murphy\u2018s cinematic universe of infamous killers last week.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":857112,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[361913,88,359800,217,11494,92,9611,361948],"class_list":["post-857111","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-crew-girl","tag-entertainment","tag-monster-the-lizzie-borden-story","tag-netflix","tag-ryan-murphy","tag-tv","tag-tv-ratings","tag-vivian-lin"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857111","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=857111"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857111\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/857112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=857111"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=857111"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=857111"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
