and again, the streamer isn’t going to make subscribers wait for the second season of a fan favorite. In May, two of its recent hit series premiered second seasons without the typical year-long wait we usually have to endure after a thrilling cliffhanger.

Viewers were able to pick up the binge with Selena: The Series which returned with its second and final season exactly five months after the first season’s December premiere.

In addition, Netflix didn’t make the more than 55 million subscribers hooked on the Mexican drama series Who Killed Sara? wait for a second season. The streamer released an additional eight episodes just two months shy of the March 24 premiere. There was a bit of an obsession with this one and it climbed to the No. 1 spot and yes, there will be a third season!

Viewers also went crazy for Lupin, which first premiered on the platform on January 8, and it’s coming back in June. Netflix reported soon after its release that the French heist drama was projected to be watched by more than 70 million households its first 28 days on the platform. In reality, that number was even higher with roughly 76 million member accounts worldwide tuning in. Lupin was the most-watched title on the streamer in the first three months of 2021, according to the company’s internal metrics.
