The best viewed series in the history of Netflix

Two minutes are needed for Netflix to count a chapter as viewed. With this premise, the platform has drawn up a list of the most watched series in its history, and some of them have surprised both friends and strangers. Of course, Henry Cavill and 'The Witcher' is in first position with 76 million views.

The chronological look at the life of Elizabeth II is proving to be a hit on Netflix and, as such, audiences are responding. In addition to its meticulous level of detail, it features excellent performances by Olivia Colman, Claire Foy and Matt Smith, among others.

A great success of a French production. Omar Sy gives life to a thief who is part of the history of popular culture and to whom this fiction gives a modern interpretation.

Tokyo, Rio and company have kept half the world on tenterhooks. Their perfect heist turned out to be not so perfect but, thanks to that, the series has had more seasons and more viewings. In addition, 'Money heist' has given us ideas for costumes for the next ten Halloweens.

It came, it saw and it won. 'Stranger Things' is more than a series, it is an emblem of Netflix and one of its most celebrated brands. It may not be the number 1 most watched but it certainly is the most iconic.

Joe Exotic is currently serving 22 years in prison and was one of those who did not receive a pardon from Donald Trump. He can, however, boast that his documentary series, 'Tiger King', became one of the big surprises of 2020.

Why did Netflix spend an exorbitant amount of money to sign Shonda Rhymes? Well, to give them series like 'Bridgerton'. Halfway between 'Gossip Girl' and 'Downton Abbey', this Victorian soap opera has hooked millions of people since the end of 2020. If it continues to use Julia Quinn's books as inspiration, the series could easily reach eight seasons.

Unfortunately, the handsome Duke Regé-Jean Page from season 1 will not reappear

In the 21st century, with new technologies sweeping the world and the PlayStation 5 recently launched, Anya Taylor-Joy and 'The Queen's Gambit' managed to make chess fashionable again. It's one of the best Netflix series in recent years, in all aspects.

Is it possible to empathise with a character who is known to be a psychopath? Ask the millions of fans of 'You' and Penn Badgley. His character Joe is a meticulous, intelligent stalker who gets inside his victims' heads until he isolates them so he can be alone with them. Overwhelming andhypnotic.

Netflix's biggest success in the superhero world, curiously, did not come from Marvel but from this heterodox group of brothers.

One of the jewels of the Netflix catalogue. Funny, vindictive, feminist, risky, romantic, dramatic, disturbing... 'Sex Education' has it all, but at the top of its virtues are Otis and Maeve, that is, Emma Mackey and Asa Butterfield, who are pure chemistry.

Steve Carell is synonymous with success and in 'Space Force' he has proven it once again. If we send him into space on a mission to return to the moon, and surround him with people like John Malkovich and Lisa Kudrow, the 40 million even seems a little short. And speaking of millions, Steve Carell gets one per episode.

Although Netflix has established itself as the leader in 'true crime' documentaries, this classic nature doc 'Our Planet' has stood out above the rest. It's a way of seeing the most remote places on earth while displaying the effects of climate change and pollution on them.

Speaking of 'true crime', this mini-series is a story based on real events. A student has to prove that she was raped, because neither the police, nor her family, nor her friends choose to believe her. A hard-hitting story, but one that has impacted millions.

Acting giants Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini have formed one of the most wonderful fictional friendships of the moment. With their little and big secrets in between, they are worthy of remaining for several seasons on the platform.

One of Netflix's highest quality series is 'Ozark,' a fiction in which Jason Bateman has vindicated himself as a leading actor and director in drama. What began with a family on the run from a money laundering plot ends with many surprising events in the fourth and final instalment.

Ava DuVernay revisited the story of the Central Park Five and the rape trial that exposed the racism of the American police and justice system. 'When They See Us' is about an assault in Central Park, five convicted, and a historic million-dollar rectification that could not heal the wounds generated by the conviction. Not to be missed.
