- Netflix claims that its new period drama series Bridgerton, produced by Shonda Rhimes, is on pace to reach 63 million subscribers in its first four weeks.
- This would make Bridgerton one of the top five Netflix original series since the company started counting anyone who watched for two minutes as a viewer.
- Variety gathered data from Netflix to determine all of the most-watched Netflix originals since late 2019.
Nearly eight years after Netflix released its first original series, the streaming service has too many originals to count. This month alone, 49 original shows, movies, and specials will debut on the service. In fact, one even debuted today. While it may be next to impossible to keep up with all of Netflix's output, plenty of shows break through to reach a massive audience, from surefire fantasy blockbusters to smaller shows about chess.
Netflix has always kept its cards close to its chest when it comes to viewership numbers, but it recently started to pull back the curtain ever so slightly and give interested parties a peek. For example, earlier this week, Netflix announced that its new period drama Bridgerton was on pace to surpass 63 million views in its first four weeks. That would make it the fourth most-watched Netflix series ever, but what does the rest of the top five look like?
