Trying to find your next Netflix show? The streaming service's top 10 list is one of the first places I usually look whenever I'm between Netflix shows.
Sure, you can't always guarantee what's trending will be worth streaming, but it's usually home to at least one buzzworthy show worth paying attention to.
Frankly, it's been full of worthwhile watches in recent months. That's precisely why I keep such a close eye on what's in the Netflix top 10 shows list, and highlight three trending titles you shouldn't miss out on every week.
Right now, I'd recommend checking out the new drama series that's perfect for "Virgin River" fans, the final season of one of Netflix's most popular shows, and a brand-new mystery thriller set in Yosemite.
You can find more info about each of these picks below, along with a full rundown of the Netflix Top 10 shows chart as it stands (at the time of writing).
This article was recently updated and is now based on what was in the Netflix U.S. Top 10 as of 12.30 p.m. ET on Friday, July 18, 2025.
Best shows in the Netflix top 10 right now
'Squid Game'
The final season of one of Netflix's biggest shows has continued to be a popular watch ... quelle surprise!
Yes, the final season of the streamer's hugely popular K-drama "Squid Game" has remained near the top of the Netflix charts ever since it arrived.
The third and final installment, if you're yet to get around to it, sees Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) continuing to try and put an end to the bloodthirsty competition altogether. Picking up after that cliffhanger, we find Gi-hun at his lowest point yet and the remaining players facing bigger stakes and deadlier challenges in the final six episodes.

'Sullivan's Crossing'
"Sullivan's Crossing" has proven to be a winning pick-up for Netflix. Mere days after the first two seasons came to the streamer, the series shot straight to the No. 1 spot, and it has remained a popular watch ever since; even "WWE Raw" (which reclaims the top spot every Monday night) couldn't keep it from the No. 1 spot for long.
This Canadian series is based on the books of the same name from "Virgin River" author Robyn Carr, and originally premiered on CTV back in 2023. It follows neurosurgeon Maggie (Morgan Kohan). When her career is upended, she retreats to her titular hometown, an idyllic seaside town in eastern Canada.
There, she starts to reconnect with her father, Sully (Scott Patterson), her old bestie Sydney (Lindura), her family friends, the Cranebears (Tom Jackson, Andrea Menard,) and strikes up a connection with handsome local guy, Cal (Chad Michael Murray).

'Untamed'
"Untamed" only just arrived on Netflix, but thriller fans are clearly enjoying it, as the new limited series has rocketed straight to No. 1 in the Netflix charts. And having streamed some of it myself, I definitely recommend you check it out.
This gripping thriller follows Special Agent Kyle Turner (Eric Bana), an investigator within the National Park Service's Investigative Services Branch who is investigating a mysterious death within the wilderness of Yosemite National Park.
You don't just have to take my word for it, either; Tom's Guide writer Alix Blackburn recommends "Untamed," too, for being a suspenseful thriller that "keeps things feeling real" and for having a real sense of "momentum."
