Evan Peters' Jeffrey Dahmer limited series sits at No. 1 today

Evan Peters, Dahmer
NetflixIt's surprising that Netflix didn't do a lot of promotion for Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, the Ryan Murphy true crime series which stars Emmy-winner Evan Peters as the serial killer, but that doesn't seem to have affected the show's success on the Netflix TV charts. It shot to No. 1 overnight after premiering yesterday, pushing Cobra Kai down to No. 2. There's been no movement on the movies list since yesterday, with Mark Wahlberg's Father Stu still at No. 1. Everyone's probably busy watching Dahmer.
But popular doesn't necessarily mean good. Below, we list the top 10 movies and shows on Netflix and give our quick take on whether they're actually worth watching or not. We've also added what's new on Netflix today so you can find out what will be on the Top 10 list tomorrow.
