Stranger Thingssits at No. 4 for the second day in a row, while the William Shatner-hosted series The UnXplained closes out the top 5.

Based on Netflix's Top 10 from Tuesday, June 28
1. The Umbrella Academy
For fans of: Young people with superpowers, Gerard Way| Is it good?: It's a good time
Season 2 ofThe Umbrella Academy left off on a major cliffhanger when the gang time-traveled from the '60s back to an alternate version of 2019 in which Hargreeves (Colm Feore) had trained sevendifferent superpowered babies into becoming the Sparrow Academy. In Season 3, the series is picking up right where it left off, and the Umbrellas will have to deal with the apocalyptic event potentially caused by their timeline jumping. (Yesterday's rank: 1)
2. The Man From Toronto
For fans of: Throwback buddy comedy dynamics| Is it good?: It's pretty dumb
Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson form an unlikely friendship when Hart's bumbling character, Teddy, gets mistaken for Harrelson's notorious assassin, known only as the Man From Toronto. (Yesterday's rank: 2)
3. Sing 2
For fans of: Singing animals, famous voices, popular music| Is it good?: For kids, sure
If I know anything about the kids' movies of today, it's that they all seem to be built around covers of popular songs. That trend continues inSing 2, an animated jukebox musical about a bunch of singing animals — voiced by incredibly famous people like Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, and Pharrell — who have to convince a rock star (voiced by Bono) to join their musical extravaganza. (Yesterday's rank: 3)
4. Stranger Things
For fans of:Stranger Things| Is it good?: It's so fun
Now that the kids are older, Season 4 of Netflix's '80s-style sci-fi megahit embraces full-on horror in a way it hasn't done before (the biggest influence on this season is A Nightmare on Elm Street). It also goes supersized with the episode runtimes, which leads to some bloat. It's not the best season of the show, but it's still one of the most entertaining shows on TV. (Yesterday's rank: 4)
5. The UnXplained with William Shatner
For fans of: Unknown mysteries of the world| Is it good?: It might blow your mind
This show hosted by William Shatner tries to explain the unexplainable phenomenons of the world. Season 3, which just hit Netflix, digs into the deep sea, King Arthur, and the Missing Link. (Yesterday's rank: 7)
6. Snowflake Mountain
For fans of:Survivor, but stupid| Is it good?: What do you think?
On this reality show, a group of young people with, as the official Netflix description puts it, "zero life skills" get stuck on a mountain and are forced to fend for themselves. OK! (Yesterday's rank: 5)
7. Legacies
For fans of: That particular brand of CW show| Is it good?: The people who love it really love it
This Vampire Diaries spin-off is set at a private school for the supernaturally gifted, focusing on the life of Hope Mikaelson (Danielle Rose Russell). Season 4 just landed on Netflix. (Yesterday's rank: 8)
8. All American
For fans of: Sports, high school, the city of Los Angeles | Is it good?: It's a solid teen drama adults can enjoy too
The very popular CW high school sports drama, which was inspired by former NFL player Spencer Paysinger's life, follows Spencer James (Daniel Ezra), an aspiring football star balancing ambition and everyday teenage drama as he moves from his neighborhood to become MVP at a new school in Beverly Hills. Its fourth season just hit Netflix. (Yesterday's rank: 10)
9. The Mist
For fans of: Stephen King's twisted mind| Is it good?: Yeah
In this adaptation of Stephen King's novella of the same name, a group of people get trapped in a grocery store after a mysterious, dangerous mist engulfs their town. The star of the whole show, even bigger than the mist itself, is Marcia Gay Harden as a religious fanatic. (Yesterday's rank: 6)
10. Backtrace
For fans of: Straight-to-VOD thrillers with elderly action stars| Is it good?: These movies aren't supposed to be good
Sylvester Stallone "stars" in this action thriller about a thief with amnesia (Matthew Modine) trying to remember where the money he stashed is, but I would bet that Stallone is only in this movie for about 15 minutes. It's produced by Randall Emmett, the shady guy who figured out a business model where he pays aging stars big money for a couple of days of work and then markets the crappy movies as "starring Sylvester Stallone." The way he makes movies is almost a pyramid scheme. (Yesterday's rank: 9)
