There are two very different new additions on Netflix's list of the most popular TV shows on Thursday, July 28. The first is the new true crime documentary The Most Hated Man on the Internet, about a mom determined to take down the "King of Revenge Porn" after her daughter's photos get posted online, which comes in at No. 3 today. The other is Car Masters: Rust to Riches at No. 5, which is just a show about guys who work on cars. The wholesome Korean comedy Extraordinary Attorney Woo makes its way back on the list after falling off for a few days, coming in at No. 9 today. Virgin River still leads at No. 1. Over on the movies list, The Gray Man remains at No. 1. New to the list are the Argentinian cop drama about an ex-cop trying to solve a murder, Recurrence, at No. 4, and the Shania Twain documentary Not Just a Girl at No. 9.

But the fact that people watch something doesn't always mean it's good. We've combined the movies list and the TV shows list into a single article to help you get a complete view of what's popular on Netflix at the moment. We've also added what's new on Netflix today so you can find out what will be on the Top 10 list tomorrow.
