Netflix Drama Beats Out ‘Stranger Things’ Season 4 in Most-Watched List

“Adolescence” has already scored 141.2 million views since its release in March.

Netflix’s hit limited series Adolescence has dethroned the fourth season of Stranger Things as the streaming service’s second-most-watched English-language series ever. As of June 1, the four-episode crime drama has reached a total of 141.2 million views since its premiere in March. Netflix notably examines a show’s performance within its first 91 days of streaming when measuring its all-time popularity lists. During that viewing window in 2022, Stranger Things season four reached a total of 140.7 million views. Adolescence has yet to dethrone Addams Family spinoff Wednesday however, which hit 252.1 million views during its first 91 days of streaming in 2022 and currently sits atop Netflix’s most-watched English-language series list. When including non-English language titles however, it should come as no surprise that Korean drama Squid Game wins over all with its first season still remaining Netflix’s most-watched series ever with 265.2 million views. Its second season, released earlier this year, faltered just below that at 192.6 million views.
