‘Untamed' Rises To No. 1 On Netflix TV Charts After Debut Weekend As Audiences Also Revisit Amy Bradley Missing Persons Case
Netflix audiences were enthralled by the mysterious death of a woman in Yosemite National Park in Mark L. Smith and Elle Smith's Untamed last week. The series debuted on July 17 and quickly racked up 24.6M views, putting it at No. 1 on the English-language TV list. That's quite a strong start — and a rejuvenation of that chart, which was looking a little lackluster last week. This also marks the second No. 1 debut for Mark L. Smith this year, after American Primeval hit the top spot in January. More from Deadline 'Monopoly': Inside Netflix's Massive Bake-Off To Win Right To Produce Board Game Reality Series Jussie Smollett Documentary Set At Netflix From 'The Tinder Swindler' Producers Netflix Breaks Into Top 3 Distributors In Nielsen's June Rankings, But YouTube Still Dominates Once again, true crime was also top of mind for Netflix viewers. Amy Bradley Is Missing took second place, amassing 12.2M views from July 14 to 20. The Sandman Season 2 also picked up another 3.3M views, good enough for third place. As Deadline previously reported, the series took a bit of a viewership hit from the first season, which finished its second week of availability with around 11.5M views. However, by the third week, the series was sitting at a similar benchmark. It's hard to say exactly what contributed to the decline, though it's likely that the comic adaptation was impacted by the sexual assault and misconduct allegations against Neil Gaiman, who created the comic on which the series is based and developed and executive produces the Netflix series. Gaiman has denied the allegations. Season 2 is the finale season of The Sandman. WWE's RAW maintained its presence as well at No. 5 with 2.7M views. In tenth place this week was Lena Dunham's Too Much, putting up 1.9M views in its first full week of availability. This is probably pretty on par with its debut weekend performance, though it's hard to say, because it didn't make the Top 10 last interval. At that time, its absence from the rankings suggest it pulled in around or under 2M views in its first few days on Netflix, given that was the tally for last weeks No. 10 Ms. Rachel. As for non-English TV, Squid Game Season 3 retained its No. 1 spot for the fourth week with another 7.8M views. On the film side of things, KPop Demon Hunters is still a big hit, staying at No. 1 with another 25.8M views. That's its highest week of viewing, and it's already been on the Top 10 for the past four weeks, indicating that the movie has some legs still. Second place went to Madea's Destination Wedding with 16.5M views, and Happy Gilmore also jetted onto the list at No. 6 with 4M views ahead of the sequel's premiere.
