1. Squid Game

Squid Game

Squid Game is a narrative about people who have no money and have a lot of debt, and they participate in children’s games with only two possible outcomes: $38 million in cash or death in an instant, and with that plot and popularity, it got the 1st place on our list of most popular Netflix shows of all time. Squid Game is ranked as the most popular Netflix program in 90 countries and the excellent performance coming from the main characters to the supporting ones and even the cameo roles were the icing on the cake. Squid Game is a definite must-watch!

2. Bridgerton

Bridgerton

Netflix, Shonda Rhimes, and the whole cast and production staff worked together for a wonderful program in Bridgerton, making it the owner of the 2nd place on our list of most popular Netflix shows of all time. Bridgerton is beautiful, vibrant, and diverse, it was a sight to behold comparing it to the real world. For the historical romance readers, the show’s time period, the costumes, the balls, and the mannerism will thrill you.

3. All of Us Are Dead

All of Us Are Dead

All of Us Are Dead is a horror program that came out in Korea and it is incredibly well cast, making it the 3rd one on the list of most popular Netflix shows. The show had virtually every stereotyped student cliché you can think of, making the show a diverse one. We think each actor did an excellent job in their respective roles and there’s a lot of action and gore in this show. Dae-su, Su-hyeok, Mijin, and Jae-Ik are among the favorite characters of the show, all thanks to their great acting abilities.

4. Money Heist

Money Heist

You will drop your jaw while watching those robbers coming up with amazing plans. Money Heist might be the only show on television that has captivated fans for 5 seasons and it has 4th place on our list of most popular Netflix shows. The series has become a global hit, reflecting the cultural zeitgeist of the internet era and because of the ardent support of Alvaro Morte’s fully-involved, detailed portrayal of his character, the show has maintained a huge fanbase. The Professor is possibly the most popular TV character on television today and it is all thanks to Morte’s acting.

5. The Witcher

The Witcher

The Witcher is another medieval show with fantastic elements and it originated from a popular video game. The Witcher has amazing sceneries and what we liked the most was how the characters from the game were fully demonstrated, granting it 5th place on our list of most popular Netflix shows. We think every single actor and actress performed an outstanding job introducing and developing their roles in The Witcher, and as everybody agrees, Geralt was destined to be played by Henry Cavill!

6. Stranger Things

Stranger Things

As the official description tells, following the inexplicable and unexpected disappearance of a little kid, the residents of a small village begin to unearth secrets of a government experiment, and Stranger Things has the most unique narrative of all the most popular Netflix shows. The scenes are gripping, and the character development is incredible; we are sure this program will have you on the edge of your seat, anticipating what will happen next.

7. 13 Reasons Why

13 Reasons Why

13 Reasons Why follows adolescent Clay Jensen as he returns home from school to find a mystery package, and the show manages to get 7th place on our list. Like ike many others, we were also skeptical about the show because most television shows portray depression and suicide as far less serious than they are, but 13 Reasons Why is nothing like that. Many viewers who had similar things said that they could watch the show without getting triggered since it has a reassuring and solid narrative.
