The top 10 most watched Netflix shows right now

[Andy Meek]

Netflix was so keen on making Shadow and Bone -- the streamer's newest series adapted from a popular novel, in this case a popular young adult fantasy novel -- that a few weeks prior to the series' debut on Netflix on April 23, the company got some booktubers together, virtually speaking.

The idea was to get a kind of stamp of approval from some pretty hardcore fantasy novel fans in advance of Netflix launching the series, which has quickly become one of the most-watched Netflix shows at the moment. Long story short, the three booktubers who appear in the Netflix video which you can watch below (including Jananie, who goes by thisstoryaintover on YouTube and who says overall "The show did a fantastic job") gave it their stamp of approval, which also coincides with the pretty strong ratings the show has garnered on Rotten Tomatoes, as well (an 86% critics score, along with a 94% audience score). And, no surprise, users of the streaming search engine service Reelgood -- a company that each week shares a snapshot of its data with us at BGR -- likewise have this show at the top of their Netflix rankings at the moment, too.
