Netflix released its weekly global rankings on Tuesday, 15 September. The Gentlemen: season 2 claimed the top spot among shows, while why Did I Get Married Again? Led the movies chart. Both titles topped their categories despite the leading show missing a 12-million-view benchmark.

The Gentlemen: season 2 secured the number-one position in the global show list. However, the series Did not reach the 12 million view threshold set for the week. The shortfall suggests the episode attracted fewer viewers than the benchmark.

Why Did I Get Married Again? Emerged as the most-watched film worldwide on Netflix for the same period. Its placement placed it ahead of other releases in the global movie ranking. The title's performance marked it as the week's leading cinematic offering on the platform.

In The United States, those Who Wish Me Dead held the second place among Netflix movies. The film's ranking came behind the global leader but still placed it near the top of the domestic list. Its presence in the upper tier highlighted its appeal to American viewers.

The rankings illustrate differing audience responses across regions and formats. While the top show fell short of the view count target, the top movie achieved the leading position without a reported threshold. The data provides a snapshot of streaming trends for the week ending 15 September.

Analysis

The Gentlemen: season 2's position at the summit of the global show ranking demonstrates its popularity, yet the failure to reach the 12 million-view benchmark indicates a lower absolute audience than the platform's internal target. This gap may reflect competing releases, seasonal viewing patterns, or a modest promotional push, but without detailed viewership data the precise cause remains unclear.

Why Did I Get Married Again? Securing the top spot among movies suggests that the film resonated with a broad international audience.

The placement of those Who Wish Me Dead as the second-most-watched Netflix movie in the United States shows that domestic preferences can differ from global trends, where the leading film was a different title. Together, the rankings provide a snapshot of current streaming consumption, yet they offer limited insight into longer-term shifts without additional weeks of data.
