Netflix’s Squid Game Season 2 has ranked No. 1 on the list of the “100 most-watched TV series of the 2024-2025 season.”

Variety, citing data from Nielsen, reported on May 29 that while the exact survey period was not specified, the data collection concluded in early April. Notably, this marks the first time Nielsen, which traditionally monitored U.S. cable TV channels, included streaming platforms in its analysis, tracking viewing patterns over a 35-day period.

According to the findings, Squid Game Season 2 recorded an average of 27.1 million views over 35 days, far surpassing the second-place series, Netflix’s Boy’s Time, which garnered 19 million views. Aside from Squid Game 2, most of the top 100 titles were English-language productions from the U.S. and U.K.

Meanwhile, Netflix plans to release Squid Game Season 3, the series finale, on June 27. Season 3 was filmed consecutively with Season 2, which consisted of seven episodes. Previously, Netflix revealed that Squid Game 2 amassed a global total of 165.7 million views in the fourth quarter of last year.
