Are those blue skies and sunshine we can see? Yep, after months of cold, dark days winter is finally behind us.
But that doesn’t mean we’ll be totally ditching our evenings in front of the TV just yet as Netflix continues to deliver binge-worthy TV shows by the truckload.
And this week’s global most-watched top 10 chart is a mixed bag which really does provide something for everyone. Whether you’re into true crime, tense thrillers, or even reality dating shows. Plus Bridgerton, of course.
Let’s get into it…

Kicking things off in the tenth spot is the first series of this live action take on the popular anime — understandable given that season two has just dropped.
One Piece follows young pirate Monkey D Luffy (Inaki Godoy) and his crew, the Straw Hats, as they go in search of the titular mythical treasure in a bid to become next King Of The Pirates.
It was actually one of the most-watched TV show of 2023 overall on Netflix, with 72m views, so you may well have seen this already. If not, now’s your chance to play catch-up.
9. Age Of Attraction: Season 1 – 3,800,000 views
Another week, another dating show on Netflix. And while Love Is Blind (more on this later) focuses on couples not revealing their faces, this one – you guessed it – centres on potential love matches keeping their ages to themselves.
Instead, the singles build connections based on chemistry and compatibility. They only find out how old their potential partner is after they commit to one another.
Can the age-gap romances really work? You’ll have to tune in to find out.
8. The TikTok Killer: Limited Series – 3,800,000 views
True crime anyone? Of course, this is Netflix after all. And this week it comes in the shape of this unsettling Spanish-language documentary, exploring the murder of Esther Estepa and the digital trail that helped investigators working on the case.
Detectives combed through online messages, videos and social media activity as the timeline surrounding her death became ever clearer.
As its title suggests, it also reflects on the role social media platforms such as TikTok can play in modern criminal investigations.
7. That Night: Limited Series – 3,800,000 views
Another Spanish-language hit now — this time based on a crime that is most definitely fiction.
That Night, based on the novel by author Gillian McAllister, centres on three sisters who resort to desperate measures after the youngest, Elena, accidentally kills a man during a holiday in the Dominican Republic.
The six-part series takes turns to focus on the perspective of each sister, as the siblings have to decide how far they’ll go to keep Elena out of jail.
6. Boyfriend On Demand: Limited Series – 4,800,000 views
Fancy a romcom? We’ve got you covered with this South Korean hit, featuring Blackpink’s Jisoo as a cartoon producer who signs up to test a futuristic dating service creating virtual boyfriends.
The immersive simulations drop her into a series of romantic fantasy scenarios designed around her ideal partner.
However, matters are complicated when the line between digital relationships and real life starts to blur — especially once colleague Park Kyeong-nam gets involved.
5. Bridgerton: Season 4 – 5,300,000 views
It might have relinquished its grip on the top spot but Bridgerton is still hanging in there, with millions tuning in to the swoonworthy Regency era drama.
The fourth season of the show sees the focus shift to Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson), whose life is transformed after he meets the mysterious Sophie Baek (Yerin Ha) at a masked ball.
Part 2 of the series – which dropped in February – gives us more romance, more gorgeous costumes and that bathtub scene that’s got fans losing their minds. With season five already confirmed, we won’t be bidding farewell to the show any time soon.
4. Virgin River: Season 7 – 7,000,000 views
Can you believe that Virgin River is now in its seventh season? Nope, nor can we. Originally premiering in 2019, this is now one of Netflix’s longest-running original dramas — and it’s showing no signs of slowing down.
In case you haven’t caught up, the show follows nurse practitioner Mel (Alexandra Breckenridge), who swaps big city life in LA for the titular rural town after her husband dies.
The new series sees newly-wed Mel settling into married life with her husband Jack (Martin Henderson), and it’s comfort TV at its finest.
3. Love Is Blind: The Reunion – 8,900,000 views
So you’ve watched the most recent series of Love Is Blind, as the Ohio singles negotiate the thorny waters of romance. What to do now?
Well, judging from the viewing figures, you’ve all been watching the reunion show.
For those who have avoided it so far, Love Is Blind sees a bunch of singles attempting to find love with one another — the twist being that they never actually meet in person until after they become engaged.
The reunion show brings those from series 10 back together to see which couples have made it, which haven’t, and to reveal everything that’s happened since filming.
Expect drama.
2. The Dinosaurs: Season 1 – 9,600,000 views
This ambitious documentary series – narrated by Morgan Freeman – brings prehistoric life thundering onto our screens by means of some cutting edge visual effects.
Across four episodes, it reveals how dinosaurs rose to dominate the planet during the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods before they were suddenly wiped out.
The result is a rather visually spectacular look at the ancient ecosystems that dominated the world millions of years ago before the appearance of humans.
1. ONE PIECE: Season 2 – 16,800,000 views
We’ve got two pieces of One Piece in this week’s Netflix chart because the second series of the live-action manga adaptation has left Bridgerton walking the plank off the top spot as it nabs top honours.
One Piece season 2 sees the Straw Hat pirates, led by Monkey D Luffy, return for more seafaring and treasure-hunting adventures, with more fierce adversaries and more perilous quests along the way.
You can also expect a raft of new characters, including Mikaela Hoover as Tony Tony Chopper, Rigo Sanchez as Dragon, Yonda Thomas as Igaram, Callum Kerr as Smoker, Charithra Chandran as Miss Wednesday, and Joe Manganiello as Mr. 0.
With nearly 17 million viewers in its six days on the platform, it’s clear everyone wants a piece of it.
