Stranger Things 4 is the secon...Netflix mentioned that Stranger Things 4 was on the "Top 10" list in 93 different countries
Stranger Things 4 has become the second Netflix series after Squid Games, 2021's Korean survival-thriller, which clocked in 1.65 billion hours in its first 28 days to hit a billion hours of viewing time. The fourth season of the sci-fi horror series Stranger Things, which has nine episodes, has been viewed for 1.15 billion hours since the seven-part first installment, dubbed "Volume 1", dropped on the streaming platform on May 27. Of these, 301 million hours came just this past weekend courtesy of the two-part super-sized Volume 2, which was released on July 1. The two episodes have a combined runtime of over four hours, with the season 4 finale longer than most feature films, which may have worked in their favor on this front.
Netflix mentioned that Stranger Things 4 was on the "Top 10" list in 93 different countries this weekend, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, the UAE, the UK, and the US among others. The full list is available on Netflix's Top 10 website. Further, all four seasons were among the six most-watched shows during this period, with only The Umbrella Academy managing to hold its own.
