With a Cuedo at the White House, a stellar cast, and a renowned producer, The Residence was bound to be a hit for the American platform. As the trailer indicated, "murder stories are very popular right now"—it's not Benoît Blanc or the Arconia tenants who would disagree. However, four days after its launch, the series produced by Shonda Rhimes is struggling to stand out against the competition.
In the ranking of the most-watched English-language series last week, the whodunit carried by Uzo Aduba is bowing to the British phenomenon Adolescence. In four days, The Residence only managed to gather 6.4 million viewers (equivalent to full viewings). According to figures from the Netflix & Figures newsletter, it fails to stand out among the best series launches on the American platform on a Thursday. It comes in just ahead of No Good Deed and behind the series Spy at the old one by the creator of The Good Place.
It's far from a disaster, the series led by Ted Danson had been renewed despite a rather modest launch. It's still much less than what what a Shondaland production can claim. Let's remember that the production Shonda Rhimes partnered with Netflix in 2021. The creator of Grey's Anatomy offered the American platform exclusivity on all of her new productions for the small screen. And success was not long in coming. since The Bridgerton Chronicle established itself in the ranking of the most-watched series in the history of Netflix from its first season.
The other episodes and the spin-off Queen Charlotte have generated the same enthusiasm among viewers. The same was true for Inventing Anna released in 2022. While it is still too early to speak of a resounding failure, while Adolescence takes all the spotlight for its second week of release. disposition, it is clear that the high priestess of American television does not succeed every time.
No surge for The Electric State
The Russo brothers are on everyone's lips in mid-March. Firstly because they are starting filming Avengers: Doomsday and the distribution has just been made official by Marvel, but also and above all because their latest film is well on its way to being a monumental flop on Netflix. If it continues to be at Although the film has topped the podium for the most-watched English-language films of the moment, its numbers remain particularly disappointing. It has failed to exceed 50 million impressions worldwide, even though Netflix spent more than $320 million to produce this adaptation of Simon Stäringlenhag's graphic novels.
