The highly-anticipated final season of Stranger Things has been dethroned from Netflix's top spot just a week after its release. The sci-fi phenomenon, which has dominated the streaming platform for years, was surpassed by a documentary series about the life of music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Stranger Things Season 5 made a strong start, amassing 59.6 million views in its debut week, just shy of the record held by Squid Game Season 2. The show trended in the top 10 lists in dozens of countries worldwide. However, by December 3, a new release, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, had taken over the top spot in the US. The documentary series, produced by 50 Cent, delves into the decades-long allegations of sexual abuse and trafficking faced by Combs and his Bad Boy empire. Despite Combs' attempts to block its release, the show has become a surprise hit, trending in the top 10 on Netflix worldwide. The final season of Stranger Things, created by the Duffer Brothers, will conclude with a two-hour series finale on New Year's Eve. The second volume of episodes is set to release on December 25. Despite its temporary loss of the top spot, Stranger Things remains one of the most popular shows on Netflix, and its conclusion is highly anticipated by fans worldwide.
