Best rated on Netflix right now
Rated by viewers, and only titles you can watch on Netflix today.
Source: TMDB audience ratings
= StreamScope score: TMDB audience ratings, weighted so a few votes can't top the list. Shown once a title has 300 audience ratings.
How it works
Each title starts from its TMDB audience rating. Titles with few ratings are pulled toward the middle until enough people have rated them, so a new release with a handful of perfect scores can't jump the list. Only titles you can watch on Netflix now are ranked, the same list The Prism shows on its Top Rated face.

How StreamScope ranks Best rated
What is the StreamScope score?
A score out of 10 built from TMDB audience ratings. Titles with few ratings are weighted toward the middle until enough people have rated them, so a handful of votes can't put a title at the top. Shown once a title has 300 audience ratings.
Which titles are on this list?
Only movies and series you can watch on Netflix now, ranked separately: the 20 best-rated movies and the 20 best-rated series. It is the same list as the Top Rated face in The Prism, and it changes as titles arrive and leave.
What does FRESH mean?
FRESH marks a title released in the last two years that rates well enough to hold one of the list's places for newer titles, as it does in The Prism.
How is this different from the Top 10?
The Top 10 is what most people are watching on Netflix today. Best rated is what viewers rate highest, whenever it was made.
