Netflix Top 10: Most popular films and series in Germany

The current top 10 on Netflix!

Good films and series on Netflix are not always easy to discover. But since February 2020, the streaming service has made it easier to find exciting content with its top 10 lists. These reveal the currently most popular Netflix series and films based on the number of viewers in the respective country. We present the current Netflix series and film charts for Germany here before the weekend.

Netflix Charts: How are the top 10 determined?

When it comes to the cinema charts, one thing is clear: the top list is determined by sales. But how does Netflix, as a subscription service, determine which series and films are the most popular?

At the beginning, Netflix counted all member accounts that had watched a film or series for at least 2 minutes in the past 24 hours. However, the streaming service does not reveal exact viewing figures.
In October 2021, Netflix announced that it would be basing its rankings on the total number of hours streamed. A Comparison of Netflix including numbers for viewers and hours from the end of September 2021.
Another one Update for the statistics on Netflix took place in June 2023. Although the hours watched are still taken into account, the “views” are now also added. To calculate these, Netflix divides the hours watched by the length of a film or series.

The Netflix charts in the app and on the website are updated several times a day. Our top 10 – first the series, then the films – are therefore only a snapshot. We always update them at the weekend if possible.
