However, the platform is also home to some mystery shows that have a lighter tone, making them dark comedies atop their story focus. This includes recent releases like The Residence, about solving a murder in the White House, and Wednesday, which has elements of comedy alongside its mystery and supernatural thriller focus. It’s clear Netflix has plenty of mystery shows in various subgenres, making it a core part of the streaming service. However, one has managed to triumph above the rest in recent weeks thanks to an explosion in viewership.
Sirens Is Netflix’s Top TV Show 2 Weeks In A Row
The Dark Comedy Mystery Is Even More Popular Than Before
This latest success for Netflix is Sirens, a dark comedy mystery based on Molly Smith Metzler 2011 play, Elemeno Pea. Created by Metzler for TV, the show follows Devon DeWitt (Meghann Fahy) as she grows suspicious of the close relationship between her sister, Simone (Milly Alcock), and Simone’s new boss, billionaire Michaela Kell (Julianne Moore). The five-episode series has been praised, with the cast of Sirens and its central mystery being big focuses. It also became a success on the platform, debuting at Number 1 for their global list of top English-language TV series.
Now, Netflix has confirmed that Sirens is in the Number 1 spot for their Top 10 English-language TV shows globally for the second week in a row. The mystery show managed to garner 86.3 million hours watched through 18.2 million viewers for the week of May 26 to June 1, 2025. This is an increase from the week before, which saw it get 79.2 million hours from 16.7 million viewers. It’s also Number 1 in 71 countries, including the United States, an increase from 44 countries during its debut week.
What Sirens’ Continued Number 1 Spot On Netflix Means For The Series
It’s Only Just Beginning To Prove Its Long-Term Success
Sirens has managed to garner more success in its second week at the top than its first, the show holding onto its high ranking on Netflix‘s top charts. This bodes well for the future of the series in weeks to come, which could see the show keep its top spot because of the positive word of mouth surrounding it. The success is yet another reminder that the streaming platform has a thriving space for mystery stories of all kinds, and will continue to feature those like Sirens long into the future.
