For almost 190 million viewing hours in total last week, Netflix viewers were singing ‘Belle Ciao’ after the fifth and last installment of the Spanish drama series, ‘La Casa de Papel’, commonly known as ‘Money Heist’, which was released on December 3.

In the amount of two days, ‘Money Heist’ took the highest spot in Netflix’s English shoes, rising to No. 1 in on Netflix’s Global top 10 lists with far more total viewing hours than the week’s top English show, ‘Lost in Space’, which has 47.38 million hours for Season 3 during the week of November 29, reports variety.com.

‘Money Heist’, the twisty story of a bank robbery, features an outstanding performance by Ursula Corbero, Alvaro Morte, Itziar Ituno, Pedro Alonso, and Najwa Nimri, among other international talented actors.

The latest addition to the non-English Top 10 this week was the amazing, goofy and dark anime series, which also happens to be one of my favorites, ‘Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean” (JoJo no Kimyo na Bouken: Stone Ocean in Japanese), which landed at the eighth spot in its first week of airing with 13.98 million hours viewed.

Mostly, viewers who watch English films went hard on Christmas: ‘Castle for Christmas’ was second to ‘Power of the Dog’ with 25.55 million viewing hours.

‘A Boy Called Christmas’ took the fifth spot, ‘Single All the Way’ took the sixth place and ‘The Christmas Chronicles’ have rounded out the list.
