Welcome to your weekly rundown of the finest tales from Netflix’s high 10 hourly figures tumble for the week ending July sixth, 2025. Loads to quilt this week, including wide holds for Squid Sport season 3 and KPOP Demon Hunters, plus the debuts of a recent Trainwreck documentary and The Weak Guard 2, which returned after 5 years.
As continuously, that you would be capable to dive deeper into the Netflix Top 10s the exercise of our instruments, a lot like our search tool, nation search, or Engagement Represent search, which will include to still be getting an limitless update next week!
Demonstrate: On this checklist of Netflix’s hours viewed from June Thirtieth, 2025 to July sixth, 2025, we’ll exercise “Complete Viewings Same,” or CVE, expressed in hundreds of thousands. That formulation we divide the hours viewed presented by Netflix by the runtime of films or series. It enables for higher comparisons between films and series, but it’s now not an viewers metric. It is some distance the minimum preference of viewings if they were all total from the predominant second to the closing second of the film or season.
1. The Weak Guard 2 5 years after the liberate of the predominant The Weak Guard film, the sequel has within the discontinuance arrived on our shows following a insecure production, and it scored the seventh-finest originate for a Wednesday liberate since June 2021, with 37.5M CVEs in its first 5 days. That’s solid, but just correct this 365 days, the German film Exterritorial did higher, and sure price well-known much less to create.
Even supposing it’s a tiny bit early for this roughly estimate, I’d say the film is on goal to attain spherical 60M EVCs after 28 days, whereas the predominant film reached 88.4M EVCs over the same duration. The Weak Guard 2 also tries to play it tidy by ending on a cliffhanger that objects up a third film. Now now not positive Netflix will greenlight it with numbers relish these — but you by no formulation know.
2. KPop Demon Hunters holds relish the sensation it has transform. This week marks a tiny bit of an tournament with the solid maintain of the interesting film KPop Demon Hunters, which delivered a third week nearly identical to its second, with finest a exiguous tumble of 6.2%. It’s the suitable maintain week-to-week from weeks 2 to three for a Friday liberate.
We’ll survey how lengthy the film can retain this model, but its soundtrack remains to be driving excessive on the charts all over varied music streaming platforms, so it goes to also still include some gas left within the tank for one other week or two.
3. Straw As for Straw by Tyler Perry, it’s for sure going to fall brief of breaking into the all-time Top 10, as the film lands the 17th-finest originate for an English-language Netflix film over its first 28 days, with 104.7M CVEs. Gentle, that’s a moderately excellent performance.
4. Shark Whisperer With Shark Whisperer, it’s positive that Netflix is hoping to replicate the modest success of My Octopus Trainer, which made quite an affect when it modified into released — even happening to uncover the Oscar for Superb Documentary in 2021. On the other hand, up to now, both critics and audiences haven’t in actuality shown up, with finest 6.1 million CVEs in its first seven days. It’s decent, but nothing special, even with the enhance from Shark Week.
5. Trainwreck: The Cult of American Attire Unusual week, a recent Trainwreck documentary. This time, specializing within the American Attire impress. The originate is off to a solid begin with 7.8M CVEs over its first six days, a notch above the earlier Trainwreck entries, Poop Cruise aside, which modified into a breakout hit closing week. Makes you surprise if Poop Cruise’s success also can include spilled over and given this be conscious-up doc a tiny bit of a elevate.
6. Squid Sport season 3 Momentum is already initiating to dreary a tiny bit for Squid Sport Season 3, which, to be just correct, modified into expected. There’s nothing particularly tender here, as every season of Squid Sport has followed the same sample: a bigger originate than the one earlier than, but within the discontinuance ending up with decrease overall numbers. How some distance will Squid Sport Season 3 chase? I’m inclined to place a unfold between 140M and 160M CVEs over its first 91 days — but we’ll survey the intention in which it plays out!
7. Assault on London: Attempting the 7/7 Bombers There haven’t been many docuseries released on a Tuesday this 365 days, so we now must behold a tiny bit extra again to search out comparisons and assess the originate of this recent correct crime series specializing within the 2005 terrorist assaults in London. The debut is form of sensible, with 4.7M EVCs over its first six days — decrease than that of one other British correct crime series, Who Killed Jill Dando?.
8. The Sandman It’s time for The Sandman to wrap up, as after a closing-minute renewal, Season 2A has launched quite underwhelmingly, which modified into expected as soon as extra. The very fact that here’s finest the predominant half of the season will include to still theoretically enhance its numbers, but if here’s the suitable the series can create, this last season is coming just correct in time (now not to teach the overall controversies surrounding Neil Gaiman, the distinctive creator).
When evaluating that originate to different season 2 debuts on a Thursday, we are able to survey that The Sandman 2 would doubtlessly include been in wretchedness of cancellation gorgeous out of the gate, so it goes to even include been your finest solution to total it on its fill terms, with a batched liberate over the summer time.
9. Tour de France: Unchained, season 3 One other series that obtained’t be getting one other season is the French documentary Tour de France: Unchained, which Netflix has cancelled, ending with Season 3. This third season launched closely following Season 2’s numbers, with a moderately gentle decline. Nonetheless overall, the figures stay too low within the bigger Netflix panorama, so the streamer decided to drag the recede.
That’s thinking about this week. Feel free to enable us to grasp what you imagine within the comments below.
