1. Girls5Eva (Season 3)
The beloved comedy about a ’90s girl group made the leap from Peacock to Netflix, and the third season did not disappoint. The hilarious adventures of the once-forgotten pop stars continue to captivate audiences, mixing heart with sharp humor.
2. Vikings: Valhalla (Season 3)
The saga of the Viking world continues with the third season, bringing even more action, drama, and epic storytelling. Fans of the historical action series were thrilled by the new chapters of Norse mythology, power struggles, and intense battles.
3. One Day (Limited Series)
Released just in time for Valentine’s Day, this romantic drama struck a chord with viewers. Adapted from the bestselling novel, One Day is an emotional rollercoaster about love, loss, and destiny. It had us crying all the way to the credits.
4. Bridgerton (Season 3 – #Polin)
The period drama we can’t get enough of returned for season 3, diving deeper into the passionate and tumultuous love story of Penelope and Colin. #Polin fans finally got their long-awaited payoff, and it was well worth the wait.
5. Nobody Wants This (Romantic Series)
Later in the year, Nobody Wants This kept the romantic vibes alive, exploring the complexities of love in a fresh, heartfelt way. It’s a show that keeps you rooting for the characters as they navigate their relationships and personal growth.
6. Stranger Things 5 (Still Waiting)
Okay, so Stranger Things 5 didn’t arrive in 2024 as we had hoped, but we can’t help but hold on to hope for the final season of this beloved sci-fi series. We’re still waiting for those final moments with the kids of Hawkins—and praying they free us from the Upside Down soon.
And let’s not forget the reality TV gems like Love is Blind, The Great British Baking Show, and The Circle, which kept us hooked all year. Netflix proved once again that it knows how to deliver the perfect mix of drama, comedy, and reality TV to keep us glued to our screens. 2024 was a year to remember, and we can’t wait to see what’s next!
