The second season of the South Korean Netflix drama “Squid Game” topped a recent list of popular TV series in the United States.

According to the U.S. entertainment magazine Variety on Thursday, the show earned an overwhelming lead on Nielsen’s list of “100 Most-Watched TV Series of 2024-25 across Streaming, Broadcast and Cable.”

Nielsen, a media audience research firm, reportedly analyzed 35 days of viewing patterns across traditional American cable TV channels and streaming platforms.

The magazine said “Squid Game” Season 2 was watched 27-point-one million times during that period, far outpacing runner-up “Adolescence,” also from Netflix, which garnered only 19 million views. 

Most of the titles that made the list are English-language shows produced in the U.S. or Britain.
