Unfamiliar Netflix

With only one day of availability on the platform, Unfamiliar should continue to climb Netflix’s charts as the weekend begins. At the moment, the three most-watched TV shows on Netflix in the United States are Bridgerton, one of Netflix’s most popular series that recently returned for season 4, The Lincoln Lawyer, whose season 4 dropped on the same day as Unfamiliar, and Is It Cake? Valentines.

At the time of writing, Unfamiliar has yet to break into the global top ten most-watched TV shows on Netflix chart, but if it’s already charting, it seems poised to become a hit, which could lead to a follow-up season, something it surely deserves. That list is spearheaded by the Netflix Original series Bridgerton. The rest of the top five include HIS & HERS, Is It Cake? Valentines, Sullivan’s Crossing, and Animal Kingdom. While Unfamiliar is not part of the list, the show is already finding success worldwide.

Currently, Unfamiliar is trending in 9 countries. The 6-part spy thriller series ranks as high as the 3rd most-watched TV show on Netflix in Ukraine. Besides that country and the United States, Unfamiliar is in the top ten TV shows for the following countries: Bulgaria, Denmark, Pakistan, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, and Vietnam. Data from Germany, where the show is from, has yet to be revealed.

No updates have been shared about a potential Unfamiliar season 2 at this time. However, the Netflix spy thriller series ends season 1 with the door wide open for more stories if the show becomes a streaming hit. Based on how Unfamiliar is already a success in the United States and other countries right after its debut, the Netflix series’ future is looking bright.
