NetflixNetflix found a new, very popular docuseries in the form of American Murder: Gabby Petito, focused on the tragic killing of a young woman back in 2021, and it stayed as Netflixs #1 show on Netflixs top 10 list for nearly two weeks since its debut in mid-February. Now, a new scripted series starring an A-lister is in the top spot.That new #1 show in the top 10 list is Running Point, a new comedy series from Mindy Kaling of The Office fame. It stars a big name, Kate Hudson, and has a great cast featuring the likes of Brenda Song, Max Greenfield and Justin Theroux. Whats it all about? Heres the synopsis:NetflixWhen a scandal forces her brother to resign, Isla Gordon is appointed president of the Los Angeles Waves, one of the most storied professional basketball franchises, and her family business. Ambitious and often overlooked, Isla will have to prove to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the larger sports community that she was the right choice for the job.The show has solid review scores, a 71% on Rotten Tomatoes, and the last time I checked, perfect 100% audience score, but its not likely that stays that high indefinitely. This marks a huge TV project for Hudson, her last one being one season of Truth Be Told back in 2021. But Running Point has debuted at #1 meaning it is almost certainly the most-viewed series in the US right now given the reach of Netflix. Im sure Hudson and Kaling are thrilled with that result. This definitely seems like a show that is angling for more seasons from here, and with this kind of debut, it seems likely that may indeed happen, but time will tell.The rest of the list has the poorly-reviewed Zero Day, the Robert De Niro feature, at #3, and it has never hit the #1 spot, and at this point, will not. Its a miniseries, so thats not a huge deal. Theres a new scripted series called Toxic Town based on a real tragedy in the East Midlands, and it stars ex-Doctor Who Jodie Whittaker and current White Lotus cast member Aimee Lou Wood.In the wake of the Gabby Petito series, American Murder: Lacy Peterson has made the list again as I am guessing it was recommended to viewers after watching the other series. Brooklyn Nine-Nine has also reappeared on the list as a comfort classic. Well keep an eye on how Running Point does, but so far so good.Follow me , and .Pick up my sci-fi novels the and
