Three weeks after premiering on Netflix, Young Sheldon has ascended to the most watched show on streaming platforms in the United States. A platform switch to Netflix also sent The Super Mario Bros. Movie to its biggest streaming week to date.
The two titles, which rank second and third on Nielsen’s streaming chart for the week of Dec. 4-10, are the latest examples of Netflix’s multiplying power. Young Sheldon had 1.63 billion minutes of viewing on Netflix and Max for the week, after recording 1.85 billion minutes a week earlier and 963 million for its first week on both platforms. The Big Bang Theory prequel had never charted before the past three weeks (it was previously exclusive to Max) and has easily surpassed its parent show in viewing time all three weeks. The Big Bang Theory had 592 million minutes of watch time on Max for Dec. 4-10.

An investigative journalist falls for her subject: A handsome, world-renowned surgeon.
That logline could be the start of a rom-com. Instead, it’s the beginning of a sinister story, one that’s told on Dr. Death.
The second season of the Peacock anthology based on the Wondery podcast brings to screen the true-crime story of Paolo Macchiarini (played by Édgar Ramírez), the pioneering Italian surgeon whose revolutionary biosynthetic tracheas could be a medical solution to the traditional trachea transplant. His work is so impressive, he becomes the subject of a TV profile from New York journalist, and former NBC producer, Benita Alexander (Mandy Moore), who — spoiler alert — ends up contributing to a much more important Vanity Fair article that ultimately unmasks the real Paolo Macchiarini.
But in the time between their first encounter in 2013 and that 2016 article, the pair fall in love. A whirlwind romance of sorts ensues, where Alexander...

After six seasons at the front of This Is Us, Mandy Moore is embracing some darker fare with her new role in Peacock’s Dr. Death.
In the second season of the anthology series — which follows up the Joshua Jackson-led first season with a new cast and new plot — Moore stars alongside Edgar Ramírez in the real-life story of Dr. Paolo Macchiarini, a charming surgeon renowned for his innovative operations. She plays investigative journalist Benita Alexander, who approaches the doctor for a story, kicking off a whirlwind romance between the two as Macchiarini’s dark secrets begin to unfold.
Moore had given birth to her second child just a month before she got the pitch for the project, admitting she “was not thinking about work” and the ask to move from Los Angeles to New York for the shoot felt “like a heavy lift.”

While being fairly paint-by-numbers, a sweeping cast of interviewees and mind-blowing twists and turns make Netflix's Bad Surgeon: Love Under the Knife worth watching.
The latest in a string of true-crime hits on the streaming giant, Love Under the Knife tells a dueling story of the disgraced doctor Paolo Macchiarini, who commits "one of the biggest frauds in modern medical history" (via Netflix) while pulling the wool over the eyes of the woman he (quote-unquote) loves.
The three-part series cemented a stellar debut, rising to second place on the Netflix streaming charts in North America shortly after its release.

Netflix's Bad Surgeon: Love Under the Knife pushes the controversy surrounding a renowned surgeon into the forefront with the help of a cast of journalists, fellow surgeons, and relatives of his past patients.
Bad Surgeon is a three-part series that chronicles the rise and fall of Swiss-Italian surgeon Paolo Macchiarini after being exposed for being a medical fraud.
While Macchiarini became well known due to creating the world's first plastic organs, it was eventually revealed that many of his patients who he had operated on later died.

It’s hard to keep track of all the ethical violations depicted in Bad Surgeon: Love Under the Knife, the new three-part Netflix docuseries whose title suggests a straight-to-cable Nineties TV movie. Some of the sins here on display are, literally, mortal: Paolo Macchiarini, an apparent sociopath, a definite conman, and, worst of all, a surgeon, left a trail of corpses in the wake of his fraudulent stem cell procedures, in which he inserted plastic tracheas into people before even testing them on animals. Others are more venal, if extremely aggravating to journalists.
