Basil becomes a power move on Still Watching Netflix

Allison Janney's dinner-table scene tops the week's new uploads, alongside Jodie Whittaker's turn as The Diplomat's prime minister.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

I will never see basil the same way again after this season of #TheDiplomat

Kate Wyler says she doesn't want basil in her drink. Grace Penn gives her another chance to reconsider, and suddenly a garnish feels less like an option.

That small, pointed exchange makes The Diplomat the centerpiece of Still Watching Netflix's week. Allison Janney's Grace claps the leaves between her hands to release their oils, distributes them around the patio table and gets Keri Russell's reluctant Kate to accept one. Her own glass goes untouched: she doesn't like basil.

The clip, titled "I will never see basil the same way again after this season of #TheDiplomat", is the most-watched of fifteen new uploads. Viewers single out Janney's screen presence, puzzle over where the finale leaves the story and, in one pleasingly practical detour, discuss whether basil belongs in a Negroni. A companion upload spotlights Jodie Whittaker as Prime Minister Bethan Vaughn.

Away from diplomatic pressure, Zoe Kazan joins East of Eden's leading cast to explore the Trask family's complicated dynamics. Haunted Hotel supplies a very different performance: Abaddon covering "Your Idol" from KPop Demon Hunters. That throwback currently has the strongest daily momentum among the channel's active uploads, followed by Josh Hartnett and Charlie Heaton discussing their Newfoundland accents for Below.

The channel added about 20 million views over the week, while its subscriber count stayed unchanged. Daily viewing is currently below its usual level. In the nearby streaming and TV group, Prime Video and BBC had larger weekly viewing gains; HISTORY finished just above Still Watching Netflix. Here, the week's most-watched new scene needed neither a grand speech nor a catastrophe, just an unwanted herb.
