All American was able to be #1 on Netflix and stayed in the top 10 for a decent amount of time.

The CW with another unexpected spin-off
‘All American’ Spinoff Eyed By The CW
A spinoff of the CW's football-themed drama series All America is in early development at the CW, we hear.
The Black Lightning spin off was really a replacement. Given how complicated scheduling has gotten with covid, I wouldn't be surprised if this was the same deal.

Is it me or Selena hasn't been generating the buzz I thought it would?
It barely made the top 10 in Canada when it was released. I wonder if it was more successful in Spanish speaking countries.

It was heavily panned and criticized by most people on twitter, think it ruined any chances of it having any word of mouth to get people to even check it out.
It's a bad show. Luckily we didn't run into a situation of elevating a bad show just because it appealed to a specific demographic. Latinos deserve better TV, like a certain show that keeps getting cancelled. :(
I tried watching the first episode but it didn't click sadly. I was quite excited about the project but couldn't bear watching the other episodes. I remember watching the J.Lo film as a child; though flawed, I really enjoyed it.
Don't think there'll be a Part 2. I know, One day at a time :(
This is funny because it almost justifies every single network having their own streaming service. Including the CBC, which inexplicably launched their own paid streaming service even though they sold their inventory to Netflix.
It's too bad. The creator was on Feinberg's show and he made it seem quite well considered, down to which language the characters would speak on the show.
Is it by design because Netflix original shows have absolutely no rewatch value whatsoever? Not sure what happen when all the other studio pull all their stuff upcoming years.
I remembered Netflix announced a adaptation of "One hundred years of solitude" years ago, what happen?
It's pretty much non-existent outside The Americas. You can check each country individually by clicking on them.

It turns out people say they want prestige TV but they're more than happy to just rewatch reruns of The Office or Greys and Netflix definitely doesn't have anything like that... except maybe it's cartoon/anime division.
Tiny Pretty Things was the #1 show on Netflix Us for the past few days (before December 20th) both it and The Ripper had a good week. I still need to watch The Ripper and Big Mouth.

Saw a very positive review of Bridgerton on THR, which kinda surprised me.
usually the products of these Netflix mega-deals have been mediocre, so I'm surprised to see the praise.
Edit: B Positive gets a back order for 5 episodes:

Shonda shows are usually delightful first season and then they go off the rail. Also Bridgerton looks very high budget with period setting and costumes.
I finished watching Tiny Pretty Things on the weekend, it's not very good. I liked it at first but I thought it was stupid by the end.
The acting in Tiny Pretty Things was so bad and it had so many sex scenes (The number of ass cheeks I saw was insane, I did not expect to see so many ass shots). The dancing was great since they hired professional Dancers but they need acting lessons. Somebody must be into this show since It overtook The Ripper today so it's back to being the #1 show on Netflix US. I love trainwrecks so I'm in for a season 2 I just want them to either go full insane like Riverdale or actually hire good writers.
Monday night's ratings. Everything was reruns except for ABC's "The Bachelorette":

This is actually a bit surprising/probably a disappointment for the producers. This will, at least, allow the original trilogy to be completely adapted... but they also clearly wanted to adapt the newer sequel trilogy books for a few more seasons.
I kept thinking that there were more than just 3 books, and I guess I was right. Also didn't realize that The Golden Compass was also called The Northern Lights (ah, another Philosopher/Sorcerer Stone situation...) Well, at least this fully adapts the main trilogy. Maybe one day the others will be made, too.
Yeah they literally just released a novella in October that takes place after The Amber Spyglass (book 3) to better connect it with The Secret Commonwealth (Book 5 -- Book 4 is a prequel, which has already had some of its material incorporated into the show). So they clearly were gunning for at least 5 seasons with material from the new novella and Book 5 and 6.
There is, however, a time jump after Book 3 to the new books since it is very much a sequel series. So maybe that does play a role. There is nothing stopping them from doing a true sequel TV series later on either I suppose.
Nice! I'm glad they get to finish the first trilogy at least.
I wonder if they will get to make the final episode of s2 that got cut short because of coivd.
It was supposed to focus on Asriel

Couple of real surprises there with The Christmas Chronicles 2 and critically panned Hillbilly Elegy making the top 10. Mando's numbers keep rising. It might actually still be able to become the first non-Netflix #1 in these lists. Probably not yet by next weeks update, but I could see at least the finale up there.
If not, then I expect Soul to do it. Mulan managed to chart even when people had to pay extra for it. Pixar's new movie free on Disney+ shouldn't have a problem coming in on top.
Edit: I'm dumb and thought this was the comixology thread.
Lucifer is a much better TV show than it has any right to be. Carry on.
