Netflix reveals the 10 most popular films and TV series streamed in the UK in 2019

December 31, 2019 by Matt Rodgers

Tis the season for Top Top lists to dominate social media streams and news stories, and getting in on the annual countdown craze are streaming giants Netflix, who have revealed the 10 most popular films to be streamed on UK accounts this year.

As reported by Deadline, it’s important to remember that Netflix measures the popularity of its content by monitoring “the number of accounts choosing to watch at least two minutes of a series, movie or special during its first 28 days on Netflix in 2019.” In other words, if you find yourself doing a slow-motion jaw-drop reaction befitting of the movie at the top of the list, 6 Underground, the caveat is that quite a few people might have turned it off after ten excruciating minutes.

Based on that befuddling logic, and in no particular order, here are the Top 10 Film Releases in the UK:

  1. 6 Underground
  2. Murder Mystery
  3. The Irishman
  4. Isn’t it Romantic
  5. Triple Frontier
  6. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle
  7. El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie
  8. Fractured
  9. Secret Obsession
  10. The Highwaymen

In the TV series countdown, despite being released so late in the year, The Witcher scored big, along with Sex Education, which returns early next year for a second season, and predictably enough Stranger Things 3.

  1. The Witcher
  2. Afterlife
  3. Stranger Things 3
  4. Sex Education
  5. The Umbrella Academy
  6. You
  7. Unbelievable 
  8. Top Boy
  9. Black Mirror
  10. Dirty John
