The spin-off series of The Addams Family has broken a new Netflix record.

Wednesday officially has the most hours viewed in a single week for an English-language series in Netflix history.

(I think we can guess what deadly Korean game show holds its place as Netflix's most successful series ever!)

The series stars Jenna Ortega, an up-and-coming young actress known for You & The Fallout, in the role of her Wednesday.

Catherine Zeta Jones plays the iconic Morticia Addams and the OG Wednesday, Christina Ricci, plays a teacher in Wednesday's school. King of Spooky Tim Burton directed the first 4 episodes.

The series follows Wednesday during her time at her school, the fictional Nevermore Academy, and it raked in a staggering 341 million hours viewed during its first week.

If that number wasn't impressive enough, it seems like Wednesday managed to knock Stranger Things off the top spot.

Stranger Things recently broke the overall viewership record, gaining a massive 1.15 billion hours in its first 28 days on Netflix.
