Netflix Shifts to Annual Viewership Reporting, Dropping Biannual Updates

TL;DR
Netflix will stop releasing its biannual 'What We Watched' viewership data and start annual reports in 2027, separating engagement metrics from earnings. The latest six‑month report (Jan–Jun 2026) names War Machine as the top film and His & Hers as the top TV title, with video podcasts not yet broken out. Netflix’ leadership says second‑season viewership remains strong and the change aims to focus reporting on financial metrics, while continuing to provide title‑by‑title data, total view hours, and weekly Top 10 lists in over 90 countries.
