Since its inception, Netflix has released a staggering number of original shows, with some achieving phenomenal success while others failed to impress. Shows like Stranger Things, Wednesday, Bridgerton, Squid Game, and Emily in Paris have become cultural phenomenons, captivating audiences worldwide.
Recently, fans took to social media to reveal their all-time favorite Netflix original series. The discussion began with a thread titled: “What’s your all-time favorite Netflix original series?”
The author wrote: “I’ve been searching for new Netflix originals to binge and wanted to know: what’s your favorite Netflix original series? Whether it’s a drama, comedy, or documentary, I’m looking for must-watch recommendations. Bonus points if it’s a hidden gem that turned out to be amazing.”
Fans enthusiastically shared their top picks in the comments. One user expressed their love for the Narcos series, saying: “I really love all the Narcos series. Not only have I watched each several times, they opened me up to watching more international series that I would have previously passed on because they weren’t US-based.”

Another fan agreed: “These were great shows, and I found them educational as well. They include fictional elements, but many of the stories told in them happened in real life and it is surprising how much of the craziest s**t actually happened.”
One Reddit user praised: “Ozark really was awesome. Not only was the story and acting great, for the time it was the best looking 4k streaming out. Killer show,” reports Surrey Live.
A second viewer shared their thoughts: “The order, it has some major plot holes and writing issues but the actors did a fantastic job, the characters were really relatable and likable and the story had tons of potential. To this day probably one of my favorite original series.”
Another fan gushed about their favourite Netflix series: “Peaky Blinders is my favorite show in Netflix. It’s a type of historical drama involving gangsters in WW2 England.”
Including advice, a fourth individual stated: “If your into business, strategic thinking and decision making watch it and analyze the character Peaky Blinders. Everytime I feel dismotivated careerwise I watch the show to get motivation.”
And finally, a sixth commenter added their recommendation: “The Last Kingdom. Just love it, re-watched the whole thing every time they were going to add a new season.”
Further detailing their love for the series: “Love the characters and the story was never dull that’s for sure! Great pacing. Perfect ending (movie was not the best but it was nice they gave us more! ).”
All of the above mentioned titles are available to watch on Netflix
