The streamer was boosted by the breakout success of the romantic comedy series Nobody Wants This, led by Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, which became one of the most-discussed new series. The Diplomat season 2 and Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story built on the foundations of their first installments, with Outer Banks, Bridgerton, and The Lincoln Lawyer all continuing to draw massive viewership. A recently debuted thriller could end up being a significant hit.
Black Doves Has Topped The Streaming Charts
It Consists Of Six Episodes
According to new data, Black Doves is off to an impressive start. Consisting of six episodes, from creator Joe Barton, the British spy thriller is set around the holidays as four seemingly unconnected murders threaten to expose dangerous secrets and kick off a global crisis. With a Black Doves cast that includes Keira Knightley, Ben Whishaw, and Sarah Lancashire, the thriller has been met with widespread acclaim and audience interest.
Reelgood’s methodology uses first-party data from interactions with movies and TV shows on the platform in real-time.
That interest is backed up by Reelgood, which finds that Black Doves has taken the top spot on its streaming charts for the week of December 5 to December 11. The new Netflix show came in ahead of box office winners like Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Deadpool & Wolverine, and Alien: Romulus. It also beat major Taylor Sheridan series such as Yellowstone and Landman.
Our Take On The Success Of Black Doves
It’s A Very Easy Watch
The secret weapon of the British spy saga outside of its excellent cast is its tone management. The show takes the plight of its characters and the situation seriously, but it still manages to have fun. With its holiday setting, and at just six episodes, it’s no surprise that the reviews and the reception has been great so far. It’s not surprising, as well, that Black Doves season 2 is confirmed.
