The Hunting Party steals viewers from The Lincoln Lawyer on Netflix

The Hunting Party, a 10-episode crime thriller starring Melissa Roxburgh, Nick Wechsler, Patrick Sabongui, Josh McKenzie and Sara Garcia, has climbed to #2 on Netflix’s U.S. Top 10 TV list as of February 18, 2026, while The Lincoln Lawyer sits at #6. The series is a manhunt procedural built around a small, specialized team assembled after the country’s most dangerous killers escape from a prison that isn’t supposed to exist.

Each episode becomes a capture mission that feeds a larger conspiracy, a structure that generates the same “one more episode” gravity as courtroom dramas. Originally aired January 19, 2025 on NBC, the first season is now available to watch on Netflix. The Hunting Party’s second installment recently began airing weekly and is not yet on Netflix—new episodes will only appear on the streamer once the complete season has premiered.
