Well, fellow Netflix subscribers, we’ve made it to the halfway mark to the week, aka Hump Day, and we’re one day closer to being able to veg out on the couch and lose ourselves to an hours-long binge of the platform’s new movies and shows. But before we get there (or in the case of some you are off work or out of school today), we first need to take a look at the Netflix Top 10 for July 27, 2022, so we can see what’s new, what’s popular, if something can dethrone The Gray Man or Virgin River, and what is on the verge of going extinct. Here are all the top Netflix movies and shows that are trending in the U.S. today.

Top 10 Movies On Netflix In The U.S. - July 27, 2022

Some days we see massive shifts on the the list of top Netflix movies trending in the U.S., and others we barely see any change at all. It’s safe to say that today’s ranking falls into the latter category, as only two titles have moved up or down the pecking order. The 2022 Netflix movie The Man from Toronto, with all its nervous farts, fight sequences, and mistaken identities has swapped positions with Chris Hemsworth’s 2018 action thriller 12 Strong from yesterday. Outside of those two jockeying for position, the list remains relatively the same.

  • 1. The Gray Man
  • 2. Sing 2
  • 3. The Sea Beast 
  • 4. Persuasion
  • 5. Too Old for Fairy Tales
  • 6. The Man from Toronto
  • 7. 12 Strong
  • 8. Trading Paint
  • 9. Umma
  • 10. CHIPS

It is hard to say if either of those movies or Too Old for Fairy Tales, which remains in fifth place after jumping up from the 10 spot two days ago, will catch up with The Gray Man or if it will take one of the August Netflix arrivals to make a run at the champ.

Top 10 TV Shows On Netflix In The U.S. - July 27, 2022

The list of top Netflix TV shows has a little more flavor than it did yesterday with the arrival of the mouth-watering documentary series Street Food: USA. This six-episode series is similar to other titles in the Street Food franchise and focuses on various cuisines and cultures in cities like Los Angeles, New York, New Orleans, and more. And while it debuts in the Number Eight spot, we could see it jump up quite a bit in the days to come.

  • 1. Virgin River
  • 2. Stranger Things
  • 3. Alone
  • 4. Resident Evil
  • 5. All American: Homecoming
  • 6. Alba
  • 7. Blown Away
  • 8. Street Food: USA
  • 9. Married at First Sight
  • 10. Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous

But does Street Food: USA have what it takes to dethrone Virgin River or Stranger Things, arguably two of the best shows on Netflix, in the days to come or will it be like Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, which is on the verge of extinction? Only time will tell.

As we enter the second part of the week, there are a few upcoming movies and shows that could seriously make a run for top of their respective lists, including the Netflix true crime documentary The Most Hated Man on the Internet, which just made its debut.

Philip grew up in Louisiana (not New Orleans) before moving to St. Louis after graduating from Louisiana State University-Shreveport. When he's not writing about movies or television, Philip can be found being chased by his three kids, telling his dogs to stop barking at the mailman, or chatting about professional wrestling to his wife. Writing gigs with school newspapers, multiple daily newspapers, and other varied job experiences led him to this point where he actually gets to write about movies, shows, wrestling, and documentaries (which is a huge win in his eyes). If the stars properly align, he will talk about For Love Of The Game being the best baseball movie of all time.
