Movie and TV show fans have never had it so good when it comes to the content options available for the consumer market: there are currently more than a dozen different streaming services delivering all kinds of movies or series straight to their TV sets, literally at the touch of a button. With that amount of new content being released every month, though, which films or TV shows are more likely to be worth each viewer’s precious time? Which movies or series are most people interested in knowing about?

That’s where JustWatch comes in. It’s a Web service designed to collect and present information on every movie or TV show featured in practically all streaming services operating around the world today, in one place. Visitors can create a free account, pick their country of residence – content is often different or even unavailable in various regions – define the streaming services they are interested in and get recommendations based on their preferences and searches. Consumers can then use the free JustWatch apps available for their Smart TV, streaming device, smartphone or tablet in order to always have new suggestions available on what’s hot and recommended on every streaming platform.

Based on user interest – as dictated by searches and recommendations – JustWatch is able to put together Top Ten charts of movies and TV shows across all streaming services operating in each country, every month. These are the films that consumers in the United States have been more interested in over the past few weeks.

Look at all those Oscar nominees and winners! Then don’t look at The Electric State too much, let alone watch it, as it might lead to finally cancelling your Netflix subscription like you’ve been meaning to do, you know. For years. (Image: JustWatch)


Based on the same information, these are the TV shows that consumers in the United States have shown the most interest in over the same period of time.

Taking a look at March’s charts it’s plain to see that the Academy Awards – having started to influence these charts back in February already – had an enormous impact on what people watched and searched for during the last few weeks (the digital release timing of quite a few nominees was obviously not coincidental). Almost every single spot in this JustWatch Movies Top 10 features a film that either contended for or claimed an Academy Award in one or multiple categories – the obvious exception being The Electric State, one of 2025’s worst movies so far. Well, that’s Netflix’s power for you.

When it comes to TV shows, though, it was largely business as usual: established series such as Severance, The White Lotus and Yellowjackets all claimed a slot in March’s chart, as did shows that did well during the past two months, such as Paradise or Reacher (both of which will be getting new seasons next year). Adolescence, The Pitt and Daredevil: Born Again rightfully claimed a spot, too, although the latest Apple TV Plus sensation, The Studio, didn’t. Then again, its first episode only aired on March 26th, so… next month, maybe? Stay tuned!
