10 Netflix Drama Shows That Are 10/10 but Nobody Remembers Today
It's only been a little over a decade since Netflix rose to dominance in streaming. As the service moved into original programming and popularized binge viewing, it produced an abundance of acclaimed series — and a handful that many viewers seem to have forgotten.
GLOW arrived as a female-led period dramady from Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, putting the 1980s syndicated women's wrestling circuit in the spotlight. The series followed Ruth Wilder (Alison Brie) and Debbie Egan (Betty Gilpin) as they trained under Sam Sylvia (Marc Maron) and forged lasting bonds, but a planned fourth season was cancelled after the COVID-19 production shutdown, leaving the story unfinished.
Sense8, from the Wachowskis and J. Michael Straczynski, followed eight psychically linked strangers across the globe and tackled identity, sexuality, gender and politics through a unique sci‑fi lens; it was cancelled before its creators intended, though a final movie attempted to wrap things up.
