Using the top 10 data (as provided by FlixPatrol) below you’ll get to see the biggest hits of 2021 in terms of which titles have spent the longest in the top 10s around the globe. We’ll be covering the global top 10 data while also covering top 10 data for the United States and the United Kingdom.
You’ll notice Netflix Originals dominate most lists. On the global list, this is mostly because of availability (ie. a licensed title could come to Netflix UK but nowhere else and therefore be unable to enter the top 10s in other regions). In addition, newer titles tend to do really well around the time of release and many argue that Netflix gives higher priority to its own library.
How do these lists work? When a title is number 1 on Netflix for a day in one country, it scores 10 points. If a title is at number 2, it scores 9 points and so on and so forth. This list combines all the numbers for 2021 into a single number that gives us insight into what’s performed well on the Netflix top 10s.
