If you ever needed proof that Netflix viewers will watch absolutely anything as long as it’s good, this week’s US Top 10 series is probably it. Seriously, where else are you going to find a Michael Jackson documentary, a WWE wrestling show and a children’s science series all rubbing shoulders in the same chart?

So let’s start with the show that has been ranking on top this week: Michael Jackson: The Verdict. This docuseries has become one of Netflix’s biggest talking points. Whether you love him or are just curious, people can’t seem to look away. The documentary has sparked debates across social media, with viewers revisiting one of the most complicated and controversial legacies in entertainment history.

Just behind it is Netflix viewers’ first love, a limited series: The Witness. If you have been seeing everyone bang on about The Witness and wondering what it’s actually about, it’s based on the true story of Rachel Nickell, who was tragically murdered on Wimbledon Common back in 1992. Rather than focusing on the murder itself, the three-part drama follows her partner André and their young son Alex as they try to pick up the pieces afterwards. It is a really emotional story about grief and family trying to carry on when your whole world has been turned upside down.

Meanwhile, Outlast: The Jungle is proving once again that audiences love watching people make terrible decisions in stressful situations. One of the chart’s more surprising entries is Shrill. The comedy-drama originally premiered years ago, but Netflix has given it a fresh audience. Makes you wonder what a blessing the platform has been. Not just Shrill, but Netflix has helped revive a lot of old series.

Then there is Sweet Magnolias, doing what Sweet Magnolias always does. While flashier shows come and go, the romantic drama keeps attracting viewers who just want characters they care about and stories that feel comforting after a long day.

Further down the chart, WWE continues its impressive Netflix run with Raw: June 8, 2026, followed by The Four Seasons, the second season of which is in the charts now. People have given this season immense love just like they did with the first, and thus, Netflix has announced a third season.

Next, we have Tony Hinchcliffe: Man of the People, which shows that stand-up comedy still has a place among Netflix’s most-watched titles.

The final two entries might be the most interesting. Teach You a Lesson, the new K-drama, has been receiving a lot of attention, while Camp CrunchLabs has become a hit with families looking for something fun and easy to watch together.

Taken as a whole, this week’s chart feels like a mix of every genre. People are not sticking to just one show an,d apparently, all of them are finding exactly what they’re looking for on Netflix.
