Netflix releases report of Top 3 movies, series September - October

Netflix has calculated the viewing count for series and films from September 26th to October 2nd, 2022, and produced a top-three list.

The data is collected through the use of Complete Viewings Equivalent or CVE, expressed in millions. 

That means the hours viewed announced by the platform are divided by the runtime of films or series.

Here's a top 3 report Netflix devised for series and movies with the most viewership within a week.
