The easiest way to tell if a Netflix show has been a hit is to see how long it takes the company to announce another season. And, in the case of Narcos, the show centering around renowned drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, it's only taken Netflix one week after Season 2's premiere to confirm that Seasons 3 and 4 have been commissioned.
