Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, Disney+, and Netflix have thousands of movies and TV to use as ammo in the streaming wars, but what are viewers’ favorite titles around the world?

The team at SimpleGhar sought to find out, so they found the movies and TV shows on each platform (excluding reality shows, documentaries, stand-up specials, and podcasts) with the highest number of monthly searches in each country until June 2022.

Among other findings, the researchers determined that Netflix’s Squid Game is the most popular TV show around the world, ranking first in 126 countries. And film favorites included Disney+’s Black Widow (No. 1 in 99 countries), Apple TV+’s CODA (No. 1 in 77 countries), and Prime Video’s The Tomorrow War (No. 1 in 61 countries).
