Welcome to the Binge Report, where we look at the most popular movies and original TV shows that Americans have been streaming in the last week. For those interested in Australian numbers (provided to us by streaming search engine JustWatch), please have a look here. You can read last week's report here.
The TV Time app (iPhone and Android) helps users organise their streaming plans. The data here is tracked from American users of the app and some shows listed are not available in Australia without the use of a suitable VPN.
Marvel's Halloween special, the studio's first special, Werewolf by Night was the most-streamed movie for the week (although I would have put this down in TV section, but it is what it is).
"Hellraiser" over on Hulu was third, while a trio of Netflix movies round off the new entries in the top 10, Luckiest Girl Alive in 4th, Mr Harrigan's Phone in 5th, and Last Seen Alive in 9th.
"Lou", "The Munsters", "DC League of Super-Pets", "Morbius", and "Elvis" all left the top 10.

No new entires in the streaming originals top 10 for the first time in a long time, but the orders of some of the titles have switched around, but only slightly.
"She-Hulk: Attorney at Law" continues its strong run in the top 10 by claiming top spot again. The show has been heavily review-bombed by the usual suspects (and amazingly, these usual suspects actually form part of the show), but it looks like it had no effect or even the opposite effect in making the show even more popular.
Another review-bombing, anti-woke favourite, "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" also had a good week, coming in second. "House of the Dragon" does not qualify for TV Time's chart because it isn't a streaming original/exclusive. For a comparison of the streaming performance of "Rings of Power" and House of the Dragon", please have a look at our article series here.
The same can be said of "Andor", already dubbed by some critics as the best Star Wars show so far - no review bombing (or at least nothing too serious) for this show, with a Rotten Tomatoes critic score of 91% compared to the audience score of 82% (She-Hulk's breakdown is 87%/36%, similar to the Rings of Power's 85%/38%).
