At this point, it’s not even surprising that the top five US series on Netflix this week look almost identical to the global chart… Only with a slightly different hat on. The same five shows are there, only shuffled around, and My Life With the Walter Boys, season three, has grabbed the American crown too.

With that, we have Jackie back in the middle of the Cole-and-Alex mess, while the Walter family is dealing with George’s health scare, so yes, there is romance in this season, but also a whole lot going on in the background. Maybe that’s why people are hooked.

Second place belongs to Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes season one, which uses prison calls Manson made during the final years of his life. Also, for your information, this is also the final chapter in Netflix’s five-part Conversations with a Killer anthology. Sad, right? We were kind of getting attached to those killers at this point.

Okay, so the order shuffles here a bit. While Tires season three is number three in America, it’s only ninth globally. So here’s to another season of Shane and the crew finding new ways to derail the work. At this point, would we expect anything else?

Next, we have The Idaho Murders: College Nightmare, which wore the number one crown for quite a few weeks. It revisits the murder of four University of Idaho students and the investigation that followed. Heavy stuff, obviously, and yeah, it is still pulling viewers in.

And then WWE, as usual, comes fifth with Raw: 2026 – August 10, 2026. IYO SKY teamed with Sol Ruca against Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, while Penta moved forward in the World Heavyweight Championship contender tournament. How do a corny love triangle and a wrestling show trend on the same chart? Only Netflix views can make that happen.

Best Medicine season one takes sixth, with Josh Charles leading as Martin Best, while Ms Rachel season one sits seventh after 61 weeks in the Netflix US Top 10. Sixty-one. Really? Danny Go! season one follows in eighth, so yes, parents are still controlling a huge chunk of Netflix viewing.

And because apparently one appearance was not enough, Ms Rachel turns up again at number nine with season two, while Let’s Marry Harry season one closes the list in tenth.
