Stranger Things is dethroned by this series with phenomenal success that has taken everyone by surprise … including Netflix! – News series

It is now official: adolescence has been the most popular English series of all time on Netflix since this week.

As we can see on the website of Top 10 from Netflixthe British mini-series has comfortably exceeded Stranger Things Season 4 to ensure this beautiful second place, accumulating 141.2 million views since its beginnings on March 13.

There are still ten days in its 91 -day broadcast window – this is the time chosen by Netflix to establish its final figures – which means that it will probably accumulate a few views before its official total is consolidated on the list of the most popular series of the platform.

It is difficult to exaggerate the feat that Adolescence achieved here, since it is a modest mini-series (in terms of budget), only four episodes and without stars attached to attract public.

The series, which tells the story of a 13-year-old boy (interpreted by the young Owen Cooper) accused of having stabbed a classmate after being caught up in the online manosphere, managed to generate a powerful mouth-to-watch campaign that allowed him to compete with the last season of one of the most popular franchises in Netflix.

How long?

As can be seen on the visual above, Wednesday will keep its English-speaking number 1 serial crown on Netflix with an impressive number of 252m views during its first window. This is preparing an interesting land for the arrival of Stranger Things Season 5, of which Netflix revealed during the last weekend that it will be broadcast for the first time in November.

The series will be broadcast in three parts, and it is certain that it will accumulate a very large number of viewers at the end of its first weekend. In the end, Stranger Things may well resume second place, but the adolescence performance is nonetheless impressive.
