"Boots" Doubles Viewership, Challenges "Monster: The Ed Gein Story" on Netflix

In the latest Netflix viewership data, the military drama series "Boots" has experienced a significant boost in popularity. During the week of October 13th, 2025, the show's viewership more than doubled, climbing from 4.7 million views in its debut week to 9.4 million views. This impressive increase has propelled "Boots" from the #6 spot on Netflix's top 10 list all the way up to #2, trailing only the true crime sensation "Monster: The Ed Gein Story."

"Monster: The Ed Gein Story," created by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, continues to dominate the streaming platform, scoring 9.5 million views in its third week on Netflix. This represents a significant drop from the previous week's viewership of 20.7 million, but the show remains firmly in the top spot.

Joining the ranks of Netflix's most-watched content is the third season of "The Diplomat," which debuted as the third most-watched TV show during this period. The political drama series has clearly resonated with audiences, further diversifying the platform's popular offerings.

As the streaming landscape continues to evolve, these viewership trends showcase the dynamic nature of audience preferences and the ongoing battle for attention among Netflix's diverse content lineup.
