The Night Agent star admits that he isn't too concerned about it being one of Netflix's most watched shows of all time: "If the whole world hated it but all the crew was proud of it, I'd be fine"

From Squid Game to Stranger Things, Netflix has had many breakout hits over the years and this week sees the return of one of their most successful ones. Based on the novel of the same name by author Matthew Quirk, The Night Agent debuted on the streaming service in March 2023 becoming an instant hit.

Immediately drawing in viewers, within a week it was renewed for a second season which given Netflix's long history with cancelling shows, was admittedly surprising. But they were clearly right to do so as it was their most watched series of that year and currently ranks as Netflix's seventh most popular English language show of all time.
