3 Body Problem clocked another week atop Netflix’s TV charts — though it appears to have been a slow week for the streamer’s series.
The drama series from Game of Thrones creators David Benioff, D. B. Weiss, as well as Alexander Woo, clocked just 4.8M views in its third week at No. 1. Consider that the series tallied 11M views in its first weekend on Netflix and could only muster second place.
The series now sits just below 40M views in total since launch, which places it about halfway to the most popular list. It would need more than 83M views in its 91-day premiere window to beat out The Witcher Season 1. This is still looking relatively unlikely, since the series peaked with about 15.6M views in one week and viewership has steeply declined in the past two measurement periods.
The Gentlemen took third place again, but its viewership also declined to 3.7M views.

3 Body Problem spent another week atop Netflix’s TV charts.
The drama series from Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss with Alexander Woo, drove another 8.3M views from April 1 to 7. That’s quite a bit down from last week’s more than 15M views but still enough to land it at No. 1. According to Netflix, it was in the Top 10 in 92 countries.
At this point, it is quite unlikely that the series would break into the most popular list, as viewership appears to be depreciating fairly quickly. However, there are still several weeks in the show’s premiere window for it to continue racking up views, if it can maintain a steady audience.
The Gentlemen remained in third place this week with 5.6M views, while Ripley debuted at No. 8 with 2.3M views. HBO has another Netflix hit on its hands, as Sex and the City...

“Sex and the City” made its debut on the Netflix Top 10 charts, with the hit HBO series coming in at No. 6 for the week of April 1-7.
All six seasons of “Sex and the City” are available on Netflix, with the show pulling in 2.5 million views on the English language TV charts since it became available on April 1. “Is It Cake?” Season 3 also pulled in 2.5 million views for the week.
Elsewhere on the chart, the limited series “Ripley” starring Andrew Scott had a muted debut at No. 8 with 2.3 million views. In fairness, though, “Ripley” only became available to stream on April 1.
“3 Body Problem” held onto the No. 1 spot for the second week in a row, though it saw significant fall off in viewership from last week. This week, the show pulled in 8.3 million views, down approximately 47% from the week prior. “Testament: The Story of Moses” remained at No. 2 for...

Netflix is at or near the top of both Nielsen and Luminate’s streaming rankings every week, but achieved that with some titles that differ from its usual fare during the March 29-April 3 viewing window.
As expected, “3 Body Problem” remained the most-watched streaming original series of the week per Luminate with 964.1 million minutes watched (an estimated 3.6 million views) — unsurprising, as the title is the follow-up from “Game of Thrones” helmers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, who created the show alongside Alexander Woo.
But right behind it was “Testament: The Story of Moses,” a biblical series that Netflix calls a “docudrama” that landed on the streamer in time for Easter weekend. Though the project differs from the content typically prioritized by Netflix (and most streamers) it reached a strong 707.8 million minutes watched. Divided by the series’ just over 4-hour runtime, that translates to an estimated 2.8 million views.

3 Body Problem pushed its way to the top of Netflix’s TV charts.
In its first full week on the streamer, the series managed 15.6M views — up quite substantially from its debut weekend to make it not only top dog among TV but also the most-watched title on Netflix from March 25 to 31.
It’s a bit too early to put it in contention for a spot on the most popular list, since it only has 26M of the 83M views it would need to make it. How it performs over the next few weeks will be very telling about its chances.
Meanwhile, The Gentlemen fell from grace a bit, coming in at No. 3, down from first place the week prior, with 7.8M views.
Avatar: The Last Airbender also spent its sixth week on the list with 2.8M views, putting it in fifth place. Speaking of the most popular list,...

What the movie-streaming public wants depends on which top 10 chart you prefer. This week offered little consistency and some outright contradictions.
One thing is clear: Jake Gyllenhaal’s straight-to-streaming “Road House” remake is a massive hit. Amazon Prime reported over 50 million worldwide viewers through its second streaming weekend and gateway app Reelgood reported it as the week’s #1 movie for March 21-27 in the U.S.
“The Accountant,” a 2016 Warner Bros. drama starring Ben Affleck, is currently #1 at Netflix. On Easter weekend “The Passion of the Christ” led VOD at iTunes, while the just-released $19.99 “Imaginary” (Lionsgate) topped Fandango’s revenue-calculated list. (It was #20 at iTunes.) For a second week, Google Play did not update its list.
“Ordinary Angels” (also Lionsgate) is #2 at Fandango, but #14 at iTunes. Since Fandango calculates by revenue, that list favors PVODs — but this week, six of its top 10 rented for $5.99 or less; “The Passion of the Christ,...

Heart of the Hunter is a South African movie directed by Mandla Dube starring Bonko Cosmo, Connie Ferguson and Tim Theron.
You know those movies where “the good guy” is in a t-shirt, wielding a gun, chasing a “bad to the bone” villain who sips champagne surrounded by beautiful girls for breakfast?
“Heart of the Hunter” is the latest film offering from Netflix that, like a dusty video cassette pulled from your old VHS collection for your amusement, truly captures the spirit of the 80s action flick, warts and all.
It’s entertaining and somewhat idealistic.
Plot
An ex-hitman becomes embroiled in a conspiracy that could change the course of elections in South Africa.

The two big original releases on Netflix this month are Spaceman and 3 Body Problem. In Spaceman, Adam Sandler plays an astronaut alone and far from home who desperately wants to fix things with his wife. When he discovers an enormous alien spider in the bowels of his ship, a conversation between the two gets underway, and Sandler has a chance to make some big changes. To be clear: this is not a comedy!
Meanwhile, new sci-fi series 3 Body Problem hails from Game of Thrones co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. Along with True Blood writer Alexander Woo, they’ve spun a tale that is set to blow your mind this March. Your mileage may vary, but it certainly looks interesting! And hey, we all love the show’s star, Benedict Wong.
Here’s everything else coming to Netflix this month. Note that Netflix marks its international offerings...
