‘South Park: The End Of Obesity’ Is Paramount+’s Most-Watched Movie This Week: Here Is the Rest of the Top 10

Paramount+ viewers have been busy this week, with a lineup that blends brand new exclusives, recent box office heavyweights, and evergreen comedy favorites. The mix spans adult animation events, action thrillers, and cult comedies, which means there is something for just about every taste across the service’s movie shelf.

Below is a quick tour of the ten titles that people pressed play on the most. You will find franchise entries that expand long running worlds, adaptations rooted in bestselling books, and star driven vehicles from some very familiar names in Hollywood.

10. ‘South Park: Joining the Panderverse’ (2023)

This Paramount+ exclusive event from the ‘South Park’ team continues the standalone special format created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone. The special features the core voice cast and extends the world of ‘South Park’ beyond the standard season structure with an extended story built for streaming.

Produced by South Park Studios with MTV Entertainment Studios, the special sits alongside other event length entries in the same collection on the service. It connects with ongoing themes explored by the creators while remaining a self contained story that does not require viewers to follow a season order.

9. ‘The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!’ (1988)

This comedy was directed by David Zucker and stars Leslie Nielsen as Lieutenant Frank Drebin with key roles for Priscilla Presley and Ricardo Montalbán. It emerged from the creative team behind ‘Airplane’ and adapts the short lived television series ‘Police Squad!’ for the big screen.

The film launched a series that later added two sequels with the same lead character and creative DNA. The screenplay credits include Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker, and the production was released by Paramount Pictures with a compact runtime that prioritizes rapid fire gag construction.

8. ‘Mean Girls’ (2004)

Directed by Mark Waters and written by Tina Fey, this comedy stars Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Lacey Chabert, and Amanda Seyfried. The script draws on the nonfiction book ‘Queen Bees and Wannabes’ by Rosalind Wiseman and translates its social dynamics into a high school setting.

The film introduced phrases and characters that later inspired a Broadway musical and a new film adaptation. Paramount handled the original release, and the production remains one of the most cited teen comedies in modern pop culture with a cast that went on to extensive work in film and television.

7. ‘Extract’ (2009)

Written and directed by Mike Judge, this workplace comedy centers on a flavor extract factory owner played by Jason Bateman. The ensemble includes Mila Kunis, Kristen Wiig, Ben Affleck, J. K. Simmons, and Clifton Collins Jr., with a plot that spins out of a series of mishaps inside and outside the plant.

Distribution came through a wide theatrical rollout before the movie joined streaming libraries. The production focuses on management tensions, union issues, and personal miscommunication, which gives the ensemble space to play out intersecting subplots within a single business environment.

6. ‘A Walk Among the Tombstones’ (2014)

Scott Frank wrote and directed this crime thriller starring Liam Neeson as private investigator Matt Scudder. The story adapts a novel by Lawrence Block and follows a case that draws the lead into a series of abductions tied to New York drug traffickers.

Supporting performances include Dan Stevens, Boyd Holbrook, and David Harbour. The production leans on location photography in New York and a procedural structure that traces interviews, surveillance, and stakeouts as the investigation closes in on the perpetrators.

5. ‘Novocaine’ (2025)

‘Novocaine’ (2025) is an American action comedy directed by Dan Berk and Robert Olsen and written by Lars Jacobson. Jack Quaid stars as Nathan Caine, a San Diego bank employee with congenital insensitivity to pain who sets out to rescue his co-worker Sherry Margrave after she is taken hostage during a credit-union robbery.

The cast features Amber Midthunder, Ray Nicholson, Betty Gabriel, Matt Walsh, and Jacob Batalon, and the film is also known in some regions as ‘Mr. No Pain’ and ‘Novocaine No Pain’.

4. ‘Gasoline Alley’ (2022)

Edward Drake directed this crime action entry starring Devon Sawa with Bruce Willis and Luke Wilson in principal roles. The plot follows an ex con who becomes entangled with homicide detectives after a murder tied to a diner connection, which pulls him through Los Angeles nightlife and police scrutiny.

Production companies credited on the release include organizations that collaborated on several later career action features for the lead cast. The movie features club interiors, alley chases, and interrogation room scenes that structure the investigation while the protagonist pursues his own leads.

3. ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ (2022)

Joseph Kosinski directed this sequel with Tom Cruise returning as Pete Mitchell alongside Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, and Glen Powell. The story follows a specialized training program for a dangerous mission that requires the lead to mentor a new class while confronting his past.

The film won the Academy Award for Sound and received nominations for Best Picture, Film Editing, Visual Effects, and Original Song. Its aerial sequences were captured with extensive in cockpit photography and practical flight work in cooperation with the United States Navy.

2. ‘South Park (Not Suitable for Children)’ (2023)

This Paramount+ exclusive event continues the ‘South Park’ standalone lineup from Trey Parker and Matt Stone. The voices of the creators anchor the special, which arrives as part of the ongoing collection of long form stories that are produced outside regular season numbering.

The project is presented as a single narrative that plays like a movie length chapter in the broader ‘South Park’ catalog on the service. It sits in the same curated shelf as other event length entries and can be streamed without any need to catch up on a preceding episode.

1. ‘South Park: The End Of Obesity’ (2024)

This exclusive event from the ‘South Park’ team centers on a story about weight loss drugs that ripple through the town and its families. Trey Parker and Matt Stone lead the voice cast and the production comes from South Park Studios with MTV Entertainment Studios for Paramount+.

The special expands the series of platform only entries that began with earlier events and continues a release pattern focused on longer stories. It is grouped with the other ‘South Park’ specials in the Paramount+ library, which makes it easy to find next to companion titles from the same collection.
