The 10 most popular series on Netflix US this week: September 2025
Three out of the top four shows in the Netflix US series chart this week are brand-new releases. That’s the way you see how quickly audiences are shifting.
And do you know the wildest part? A single Italian medical drama is now outpacing Wednesday. If you needed proof that Netflix viewers love fresh drops, this list has it.
At number one, Black Rabbit is still untouchable. The limited series has become Netflix’s September calling card, and its hold shows no sign of slipping. It’s just one season with extremely sharp writing. That’s the surprising fact here, as it’s dominating the way many big franchises usually do.
Wayward claims second place, and its rise solidifies the limited-series takeover. Two short-run titles sitting at the top is a twist, but there’s a hard chance of anybody getting surprised. It’s because limited series have been dominating the platform for quite a while, especially Netflix US. Moreover, it’s proof that the audiences are no longer scared of committing to one-and-done stories.
Then comes the headline grabber: Doc in third. The Italian drama is officially the international breakout of the moment. Not only did it crack the US chart, but it also pushed down one of Netflix’s biggest English-language juggernauts. That is a win for global storytelling, and it makes this week’s chart genuinely historic.
The loudest arrival is Raw at number four, debuting just days after its September 22nd release. Well, the episodes from this series usually make it to the Netflix Top 10 global chart, so there’s no surprise there. But this time, Raw is shooting straight into the top five contenders. If it’s already here, don’t be surprised when it climbs higher next week.
At number five, Billionaires’ Bunker is feeding Netflix watchers’ never-ending appetite for money, power, and scandal. Pair it with Mafia: Most Wanted at six, and you have got a double dose of greed and crime dominating the mid-chart.
Haunted Hotel checks in at number seven, perfectly timed for spooky season. With October looming, horror is about to take over, and this series is already warming up the slot. In fact, it’s getting so much recognition that Netflix renewed it for a second season within a week of its release.
Number eight is House of Guinness, adding a historical family tale to the mix. It’s got the prestige sheen, the heritage name, and just enough curiosity factor to hold a place here.
Ninth is Beauty in Black season two, the week’s K-drama representation. Consistent, stylish, and backed by a loyal fanbase, it keeps the genre’s streak alive on the US charts.
Finally, the headline moment: Wednesday season two slips to tenth. After months of holding the spotlight, it’s now hanging on by a thread. Not a fall from grace, but a sign of how hungry viewers are for fresh stories. New series are moving in fast, and Wednesday’s reign is officially over.
