Netflix Revives ‘My Life With The Walter Boys’ for Season 3

‘My Life With The Walter Boys’ has quietly made a return to Netflix with Season 3. Over its first 10 days or so on the streamer, the new episodes have managed to rank high on Netflix’s weekly English TV list, but are overall lagging compared with Season 2. The third season topped the charts the week of August 10 to 16 with 8.7 million views during its first full week on the streamer, slipping a bit from the 9 million it managed in its opening weekend.

This may not bode well for Season 3, as interest in the series appears to be waning. This is particularly concerning, given that Season 2 opened to 11.8 million views last year, which was up 57% from Season 1’s 7.5M views opening weekend. Despite this, the series has already been renewed for a fourth season, which is currently in production.

My Life With The Walter Boys Leads the Pack

My Life With The Walter Boys still led the pack by quite a bit, though, with Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes in the No. 2 spot on the English TV list with 4.9 million views. That was followed by The Idaho Murders: College Nightmare at No. 3 with 3.6 million views. The series has managed to maintain a strong following, despite the slight dip in viewership.

Shane Gillis’ Comedy ‘Tires’ Gains Momentum

Shane Gillis is gaining traction with his workplace sitcom Tires. Season 3 debuted in the No. 9 spot with 2.4 million views in its opening weekend. This is a significant boost compared to Season 2, which did not make it onto the Top 10 rankings after its launch weekend and instead appeared for the first time in its first full week post-debut.

In the U.S. alone, Tires jumped from the No. 6 slot in Season 2 (with 1.5 million views) to third place in Season 3 with 2 million views — a 33% increase. This indicates that the series is gaining popularity and may be on the rise.

Elsewhere in TV, Harlan Coben’s I Will Find You is still putting up numbers. The series landed at No. 7 on the weekly rankings with 2.7 million views, boosting it to eighth place on the most popular list with 112.9 million views across nine weeks.

It is clear that Netflix has a diverse range of popular series, each with its own unique following and level of success.
