‘His And Hers’ Finally Dethroned In Netflix’s Top 10 List By A New Show

Netflix’s megahit miniseries, His and Hers, has spent almost three weeks on the top of its top 10 list, almost the entirety of 2026 so far. Now, it is starting to slide down with a new show that has debuted at #1, albeit not another scripted series.

First, it was dropped this week by WWE RAW, but if we’re overlooking the fact that the live show usually does that every week, now we have a comedy special from Mike Epps, Delusional, that has debuted at #1. Comedy specials, of course, are just an hour, so they do not tend to stay as the “most watched” series on the service for that long. Mike Epps, most famously of The Upshaws, has five stand-up specials on Netflix, and the actor-comedian boasts wide appeal.

The widely discussed, hugely controversial Skyscraper Live special is at #3 on Netflix, featuring a man tasked with free-climbing a skyscraper in Taiwan. Many accused Netflix of being ghoulish, as of course, the idea was to tune in to see if he might fall. But in reality, information has come out that this was actually safer than it looked. In the end, it’s unclear if Netflix will plan another stunt like this, given how it was received.

The ice skating drama, Finding Her Edge, is at #5, and it seems unlikely to get very high on the top 10 list. That is usually not a great sign for a series seeking renewal, and this certainly won’t be the success that the also-ice-based Heated Rivalry was. Though that’s a high bar.

As for His and Hers, there was a recent update with a producer talking about how it’s possible a concept for season 2 could exist, despite there being no sequel book to adapt and the finale of the show wrapping up its arcs pretty conclusively. While rare, it is possible for a miniseries to flip into an ongoing series, but you need a tremendous performance to make that happen, and the stars need to align, given that it was never originally planned. While three weeks on top of Netflix’s top 10 list is an achievement, there seems not to be that much chatter overall about getting a second season made. I would be a bit surprised if it happened at this point.

There are some heavy hitters arriving right now, namely Bridgerton season 5, which will soon rocket to #1. The Lincoln Lawyer returns for season 4 in February, with news today that it has already been renewed for season 5. The Night Agent is back for season 3, where season 1 remains one of the most-watched Netflix series in history, though its season 2 numbers fell. We’ll look forward to seeing how those perform this time.
