In just three weeks, #Adolescence has become one of Netflix‘s most popular series of all time.

The limited series amassed another 30.4M views from March 24 to 30, putting it at 96.7M views since its debut. That was good enough to land at No. 9 on the all-time Most Popular English TV list, bumping #Bridgerton Season 2 from the list altogether and pushing #StrangerThings3 to tenth place
