Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie and A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder both managed audience boosts last week to reclaim their spots atop the Netflix streaming charts.
The Spongebob spinoff movie managed 13.4M views, making it the most-watched title of the week, while A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder churned out 8.4M views — up a million from the week prior and good enough for No. 1 in TV.
The film in second place was Ferdinand with 7.3M views.
The Umbrella Academy Season 4 debuted in second place among TV, also with 8.4M views. The series returned for its final season on August 8 and, seeing as it is already rivaling the first place title, it’s likely that The Umbrella Academy will take the lead in the coming weeks.
Third place went to Simone Biles Rising with 3.7M views. After another week on the platform, Joe Rogan: Burn the Boats more than doubled its audience with 2.9M views (compared to 2.5M in its first 24 hours).
Elsewhere, Under Paris put up another 1.6M views, placing it at No. 8 on the Non-English films list and one step closer to eclipsing Society of the Snow as the second most-watched Non-English film on Netflix. It’s got just under 2M views to go and around three weeks left in its premiere window. In fact, it might even be able to make a pass at the first place spot, currently held by Troll with 103M views.
Netflix says that the English film list was dominated by animated titles like Ferdinand, The Bad Guys, Trolls Band Together and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie. Preschool series like Gabby’s Dollhouse also made it onto the TV list. The streamer attributes this to families soaking up the last few days before kids go back to school.
