For a long while, Netflix has decided the popularity of its most-watched TV
series and movies should be determined by how many hours the streaming service
’s customers watched it. So, for instance, if you rewatched a season of
Stranger Things, you’d be boosting its ratings just even though you’d
already seen it. Now Netflix has changed its algorithm—kind of—and it’s to
Wednesday’s benefit.
The new system Netflix is using divides the number of hours watched by the
runtime of the show or movie, and decides that’s how many people watched it.
This is bogus, of course; again, if you rewatched season one of Stranger
Things, Netflix is essentially stating you are two separate people. It’s not
much of a change, really, in terms of how these rankings of the shows and
movies break down, but it’s enough for The Addams Family pseudo-spin-off to
knock down Netflix’s previous TV champion, Stranger Things season four. Here
are the top 10 series:

備註：
Ｎ家更改了計算觀看次數的方法, 現在會將總觀看時數再除上本身影集長度
新算法第一名是星期三252.1m views, 狠超第二名怪奇物語4 140.7m views
若再加上非英語系影集比較, 魷魚遊戲是第一名 265.2m views
想必都是"她"的功勞 ^_^
