The Waterfront<\/p>\n
Netflix<\/p>\n
Well, it\u2019s that time. The Waterfront<\/a> had its run on top of Netflix\u2019s top 10 list<\/a>, but now it\u2019s been capsized by a show that it was never going to be able to escape.<\/p>\n That, of course, is the return of Squid Game for its third and allegedly final season. Squid Game season 1 remains the most-watched season of any show in Netflix history. Squid Game season 2 is inside the top 5. I expect season 3 will probably top 2, and now it\u2019s arrived with a six-episode finale run. There was a zero percent chance it wouldn\u2019t arrive at #1, and here we are.<\/p>\n The Waterfront has had a solid run since its debut, starting at #1 and continuing until this dethroning that was always going to happen. If Squid Game did not show up, I imagine it would have remained in that spot for some time. It\u2019s a great start for the series that is angling for a second season, and as I\u2019ve said before, I absolutely believe that will happen as Netflix looks to fill the water-based crime series hole left by Bloodline and Ozark, both of which ran for multiple seasons. It\u2019s only a matter of time until we hear the same for The Waterfront.<\/p>\n Squid Game <\/p>\n Netflix<\/p>\n Squid Game? It\u2019s shown up with slightly better critic scores than season 2 but worse audience scores, dropping from a 61% to a lower 53%. I\u2019m only halfway through, but I\u2019m not sure why. Episode 2 was easily one of the best entries in the entire series. Again, this is the final season, but its creator has a clear idea for a spin-off that takes place between seasons 1 and 2 and has not ruled out a potential sequel either, he says.<\/p>\n The rest of the list has Ginny and Georgia performing extremely well, given how long ago it aired. It was already renewed for a fourth season ages ago, so there is no waiting around for that news. America\u2019s Sweethearts: The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders series seems to be one of Netflix\u2019s more popular reality series these days, and I can\u2019t imagine why. Expect it to return.<\/p>\n Two licensed shows are doing well, Animal Kingdom and Blindspot, which arrive with six seasons and five seasons, respectively, for viewers to chew through.<\/p>\n The question now is how long will Squid Game season 3 stay on top. If it\u2019s any less than two weeks, I\u2019d be a bit surprised, as Netflix has cleared its release slate for a while for this reason. But this is the least amount of episodes a season has had, so that means viewers will finish more quickly. We will keep an eye on it.<\/p>\n Follow me <\/strong>on Twitter<\/strong><\/a>, <\/strong>YouTube<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong><\/a> Bluesky <\/strong><\/a>and <\/strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Pick up my sci-fi novels the <\/strong>Herokiller series<\/strong><\/a> and <\/strong>The Earthborn Trilogy<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
