The new sci-fi series, 3 Body Problem, created by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, is making waves on Netflix for the second consecutive week. Adapted from Liu Cixin's novel, The Three-Body Problem, the show delves into a complex sci-fi world where a group of scientists investigates an alien threat to Earth.

According to Netflix's global top 10 chart for the week of March 25 to March 31, 3 Body Problem has claimed the top spot, garnering 15.6 million total views and 115.6 million hours viewed. This achievement places it ahead of other popular shows like Testament: The Story of Moses and The Gentlemen.

Despite receiving mixed reviews, the series holds a respectable 78% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with the audience score slightly higher at 80%. Critics acknowledge the show's ability to bring the dense source material to life in a more accessible manner.

The success of recent sci-fi projects like Dune: Part Two in theaters indicates a growing interest in the genre. Viewers are drawn to intricate storytelling and immersive worlds, evident in the positive reception of 3 Body Problem.

With a reported per-episode budget of $20 million, surpassing that of Game of Thrones' final season, the show boasts high production values and a talented cast. Benioff and Weiss' involvement, following their work on Game of Thrones, adds to the series' appeal, generating curiosity among fans.

3 Body Problem's strong start suggests a promising future, with viewers eagerly anticipating its next episodes. As the show continues to captivate audiences, its impact on the streaming landscape remains significant.
