The seven-episode drama about a chess prodigy who rises to the top of her field while battling addiction and emotional issues, is the top scripted limited series ever for Netflix. The streamer says 62 million member accounts worldwide have watched at least a couple minutes of the show over its first four weeks.
In the United States, the series has also made Nielsen's streaming top 10, with Netflix users watching 551 million minutes of the show over its first three days of release. "What Scott executed was phenomenal in terms of the precision of the craft, and yet at the heart of it all is this incredible character, played by the incomparable Anya Taylor-Joy," Friedlander, vp original series at Netflix, told."Her underdog journey is what I think people are really connecting with. She had challenges every step of the way, and yet she's this incredibly determined, unique and unapologetic in approaching life and who she is and who she wants to be.

Netflix view system is pretty shaky at best like how they tired to say Daredevil lost views which was a lie or how they count like 15 seconds of you watching something as a view

It was a good show, but is becoming a bit overrated.
