- Bridgerton, Shondaland's first show as part of a production pact with Netflix, is among the most-watched shows on Netflix right now.
- The Queen's Gambit and the classic NBC sitcom The Office were also among the most popular shows on Netflix during the final week in December.
- The Office has now left Netflix and been added to NBC's own Peacock streamer.
If anyone in the TV business could be said to enjoy the small screen equivalent of a Midas touch, that honor would most definitely belong to Shonda Rhimes -- the creator of everything from Grey's Anatomy to Scandal, whose Shondaland TV empire is now delivering its deliciously buzzy content to Netflix subscribers.
The end of December saw the debut of the first Shondaland series as a result of Rhimes' production pact with Netflix. Bridgerton, a Regency-era drama series based on a book series by Julia Quinn, has been described as a little bit of Scandal meets a little bit of Jane Austen. But even that's a bit wide of the mark, and doesn't appropriately convey why this new series -- which has a 92% critics score and an 87% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes as of the time of this writing -- is among the most-watched shows on Netflix right now.
