Netflix has released its Top 10 English-language TV shows for the week of April 24-30, and The Diplomat has held onto first place. The drama’s first four days of release garnered 57.48M hours viewed. In the show’s first full week, the eight episodes drew 66.46M hours viewed. Diplomat’s already been renewed for a second season.
With four days of viewing, Sweet Tooth’s second season was in second place with 48.34M hours viewed. The first season of Sweet Tooth (released in June 2021) returned to the Top 10 list in sixth place with 19.23M hours viewed. The fantasy drama has already been renewed for a third and final season.
The final seven episodes of Firefly Lane’s second and final season were released on April 27th and that was enough to move the season into the third place slot with 43.49M hours viewed. The first nine episodes of the season were released in December and they spent five weeks in the Top 10.
The Night Agent, one of Netflix’s top-rated series of all time, dropped from second to fourth place with a still respectable 37.68M hours viewed. Comedy Beef dropped from third to the fifth spot with 24.48M.
Workin’ Moms (season seven), Better Call Saul (season six), Love Is Blind (season four), and Indian Matchmaking (season three) filled out the rest of the list. Wednesday (season one) dropped out of the list after 20 consecutive weeks. It’s the service’s second-most-watched season, behind Stranger Things (season four).
It’s also worth noting that The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die, which wraps up the Last Kingdom series, dropped form first to third place in its first whole week of viewing with 8.34M hours viewed (down from last week’s 25.7M). The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always movie dropped off the list in its first full week of release.
