Breaking Viewing Records Worldwide
After The Rip brought in 104 million views in just 24 days, 2026 has already proven to be a standout year for Netflix. His & Hers quickly made its mark as one of the platform’s most-watched series ever. This achievement is based on Netflix’s official global rankings, which track total views during the first 91 days after release.
What’s remarkable is the speed: in just 46 days, His & Hers accumulated 90.6 million views, surpassing the full run of Baby Reindeer (84.5 million views in the weekly Top 10). Though its pace slowed, the miniseries still overtook the 93.8 million viewers for Bridgerton Season 2, and even eclipsed Stranger Things Season 3’s 94.8 million views. When viewership numbers settled, His & Hers reached 98.2 million—which put it just below Bridgerton Season 3 in the all-time English-language Netflix Top 10, officially dethroning the first season of The Night Agent starring Gabriel Basso.
Short Series, Massive Success
Led by Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal, this six-episode miniseries stands even taller when comparing only short-form series. His & Hers secured a spot in the top three for limited series, trailing just behind The Queen’s Gambit (112.8 million views) and Adolescence (142.6 million views).
Audience and Critics: Strong but Not Unanimous
Despite enormous viewership, the reception has been good—not outstanding. According to Rotten Tomatoes, about 62% of viewers have rated it positively. Professional critics have given it a stronger, but still moderate, 70% approval. So, while His & Hers is widely watched, it hasn’t garnered universal acclaim. In short: a quality binge, though perhaps not a groundbreaking television experience.
A Chilling Adaptation
His & Hers is adapted from the novel by British author Alice Feeney and developed for TV by William Oldroyd. The American miniseries pits two ex-spouses—a police detective and a journalist—against each other in a tense murder investigation. Each believes the other is the prime suspect. The series is recognized for its suspenseful narrative and a memorable ending (no spoilers here), praised by many in the audience.
You can stream His & Hers on Netflix now, available in English, French, and a variety of other languages. It’s recommended for viewers aged 16 and up. Each episode runs between 39 and 47 minutes, totaling about 4 hours and 22 minutes of viewing time.
