'Bridgerton' Season 3 hits milestone as Netflix's 10th top English-language series

Netflix's latest instalment, Season 3 of 'Bridgerton,' has quickly ascended to become one of the streaming giant's most-watched English-language series. 

According to a report from Variety released on Wednesday, the period drama has accumulated a staggering 91.9 million views since its debut on May 16.

The series now holds the tenth position on Netflix's list of all-time top English-language TV shows, a ranking determined by viewer counts during the first 91 days of release. 

This milestone was reached by June 30, a mere 45 days after the season's premiere, indicating strong ongoing viewership that is expected to continue growing.

'Bridgerton' Season 2, with 93.8 million views in its initial 91 days, currently ranks just ahead at number nine, trailing behind popular titles such as 'Stranger Things' Season 3 and the limited series 'Fool Me Once' and 'The Night Agent' Season 1.

The rapid rise of 'Bridgerton' Season 3 suggests it may surpass these benchmarks in the coming weeks. Despite Season 1's formidable lead with 113.3 million views, Season 3 remains a contender to outpace its predecessor by the end of its 91-day evaluation period.

In other Netflix news, Nicole Kidman's 'A Family Affair' claimed the top spot as the most-watched title of the week, garnering 26.8 million views within its initial three days of release. 

Following closely was Jessica Alba's thriller 'Trigger Warning,' which secured 26.3 million views after reigning as last week's number one movie.
