There is no service that publishes so many movies and series a week like Netflix. Its strength, compared to the rest of the competition, is having more premieres than anyone else and being the one that releases the most original content. Normally these products pass without pain or glory, other times they succeed in a big way.
And it is that Wednesdayhis new series belonging to the universe of the Addams Family, has broken the record of Stranger Things (Season 4) hours watched in a week with an impressive number of 341 million hours played.
The fantasy series starring Jenna Ortega in the role of Wednesday Addams tops the list of 10 series most viewed on Netflix in the week of November 21-27 with 341.2 million hours views after its premiere on Wednesday, November 23.
