Netflix Top 10 Report: Queen Charlotte, The Tailor, A Man Called Otto, AKA

Welcome to your weekly roundup of the biggest stories from Netflix’s top 10 hourly figures for the week ending May 7, 2023.

Every Tuesday, Netflix updates its Top 10 Stats page with 40 new figures per hour for the top movies and shows from the past seven days. If you want to easily explore the top 10 data by hour, check out our tool, which has just been updated with even more Nielsen top 10 data.

Note: In this report of Netflix hours watched from May 1, 2023 to May 7, 2023, we will use “Full View Equivalent” or CVE, expressed in millions. That means we divide the hours watched advertised by Netflix by the running time of the movies or series. It allows for better comparisons between movies and series, but it is not an audience metric. It is the minimum number of viewings if they were all complete from the first second to the last of the movie or season.
