Pictured: Elite, Slumberland and 1899
Welcome to your weekly rundown of the most important tales from Netflix’s high 10 hourly figures drop for the week ending November twentieth, 2022.
Netflix updates its high 10 stats web page weekly with 40 new hourly figures of the highest motion pictures and exhibits of the previous 7 days. If you wish to browse the highest 10 hourly knowledge simply, go to our device.
Observe: On this report of Netflix’s hours seen from November 14th to November twentieth, 2022, we’ll use “Complete Viewings Equivalent,” or CVE, expressed in thousands and thousands. Meaning we divide the hours seen introduced by Netflix by the runtime of movies or collection. It permits for higher comparisons between movies and collection, however it’s not an viewers metric. It’s the minimal variety of viewings in the event that they had been all full from the primary second to the final of the movie or season. Nonetheless, in its newest letter to shareholders, Netflix used the CVE metric to speak about The Grey Man, so there’s worth on this metric, nevertheless imperfect it is perhaps.
1. Slumberland lies dormant in its opening weekend
Slumberland was Netflix’s large play for Thanksgiving on the movie facet and it did no surprise over its opening weekend with solely 16.7 million CVE in 3 days. That’s the twenty seventh opening week-end for an American Netflix movie launched on a Friday out of the 53 in my dataset, removed from the Prime 10.

2. 1899 makes its debut
On the collection’ facet, 1899 will need to have been essentially the most hyped and promoted new collection of 2022 on Netflix, possibly on par with Sandman. Hailing from the German creators of Darkish, audiences are in for a mind-bending journey on the excessive seas, and… it does an OK begin with 10.9 million CVEs over its first 4 days.
1899 vs different Thursday style releases
That’s the perfect launch for a brand new English-speaking collection launched on a Thursday, however that’s not saying a lot when it narrowly beat Resident Evil which acquired shortly canceled. However the viewers reception of 1899 is much better than the considered one of Resident Evil, and it’s not tailored from any license so let’s we’re going to offer this launch a decrease expectation and a free move for now.
3. Is Elite operating out of street?
One collection that’s already renewed is Elite for a seventh season, and now we have the launch knowledge for season 6.
With 5.4M CVEs over three days, it’s 35% lower than the launch of season 5, which was already under the launch of season 4. Had it not been already renewed, I might have guessed Elite would have been concluded however there should be one thing within the knowledge that retains Netflix paying for brand new seasons.

4. Warrior Nun continues its combat for its survival
It’s time for our focus to go on Warrior Nun, whose fandom has been vocal on Twitter these previous few days, demanding a 3rd season for the collection that appears to please audiences and critics alike.
However as everyone knows now, vocal fandoms can’t do a lot relating to viewership, so how did Warrior Nun S2 do in its second week?
Effectively, there’s excellent news on this entrance:
- First, the collection gained 6% in its second week, with is often not the case for a returning collection launched on a Thursday (however we lack extra knowledge to be definitive on that subject).
- One other good factor is that the primary season of Warrior Nun got here again within the high 10s this week, that means that individuals are both discovering or rewatching the collection, which may then favorably affect the maintain of the second season over the following weeks.
The primary downside is that the second season didn’t begin sturdy, so any subsequent improve in all probability received’t change the tide on that entrance.
Warrior Nun vs different Netflix Exhibits
The obvious comparability is with the second season of Destiny: The Winx Saga, which acquired canceled final month with twice the CVE of the second season of Warrior Nun (and with a reportedly inferior funds).
5. Useless to Me is kind of useless to audiences.
Useless to Me is a collection that doesn’t want to fret about its future, which returned for its third and final season this week.
It returned with fairly a lackluster begin, with 5.7 million CVE over its first 4 days.
Useless to Me season 3 vs By no means Have I Ever S2 and Warrior Nun S2
When season 1 was launched in 2019, Netflix shared that 30 million households accomplished the season in its first month. I’m guessing that received’t be the case for season 3.
