“Baby Reindeer” continues its surprise meteoric ascent. The limited series, which reached 2.6 million views in its debut weekend — impressive, given the show’s minimal marketing push — rose to 13.3 million views in its second week on the chart, then shot up by another 65%, landing at 22 million views for the April 22-28 viewing window.
That made it the most-watched Netflix title of the week, followed by “Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver,” which was the top movie with 18.8 million views. “Anyone but You” was the No. 2 movie of the week with 10.6 million views in its first six days of availability, following a successful run at the box office earlier this year.
Back on the English-language TV chart, “Dead Boy Detectives” debuted in second place with 3.1 million minutes watched in its first four days of availability. The series is set in the same universe as Netflix’s “The Sandman,” both being based on comic book characters created by Neil Gaiman.
