Adolescence” has not stopped gaining steam. Last week, the U.K. limited series joined Netflix‘s list of its most popular English-language series of all time last week at No. 9, knocking “Bridgerton” Season 2 off the list and pushing “Stranger Things” Season 3 down to No. 10. Now, “Adolescence” is in fourth place on the list with 114 million views in only 24 days.

The series is now only behind “Wednesday” Season 1 (252.1 million views), “Stranger Things” Season 4 (140.7 million views) and “Dahmer: Monster” (115.6 million) on the list. It appears likely to eventually usurp at least the “Stranger Things” and “Dahmer,” as Netflix measures this list based on 91 days of viewing for each title, so “Adolescence” still has more than two months to catch up.

17.8 million of the show’s 114 million-view total came during the May 31-April 6 viewing window, making it the No. 1 TV title of the week in its fourth week on Netflix.

“Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer” debuted at No. 2 with 12 million views in its first seven days on Netflix, followed two more debuts: “Pulse” with 6.5 million views and “Devil May Cry” with 5.3 million views, both in four days.

“The Residence” took fifth place in its third week on the Netflix Top 10 with 4.6 million views. “Love on the Spectrum” returned for its third season right behind it, hitting 3.5 million views in five days. “Million Dollar Secret” was next with 3 million views in its second week on the chart.

As usual, the weekly “Raw 2025” special landed on the chart, this time in eighth place with 2.9 million views, while the last two spots went to the debut of “Jurassic World: Chaos Theory” with 2.5 million views in four days and the eighth week of “Ms. Rachel” with 2.3 million views.
