Streaming audiences have been all over the place with their holiday viewing this year. Instead of non-stop Christmas classics, we've seen Megan Fox sci-fi thrillers dominating Netflix's charts, and Gerard Butler-led crime thrillers taking over the Max rankings. That said, viewers have still managed to squeeze in some traditional holiday fare amid all the crime and sci-fi stuff, with Prime Video audiences propelling Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1996 Christmas comedy "Jingle All the Way" to the top of that streamer's charts. But even as the festive classics surface for the season, our collective appetite for darker offerings appears to be insatiable, as a new Netflix comedy drama series has managed to stand out amid the holiday stream-fest.
Back in 2022, "Dead to Me" creator Liz Feldman signed on to helm new Netflix series "No Good Deed," and now the show has finally arrived. It seems it was worth the wait, too, as the eight-episode dark comedy is faring well on Netflix's most-watched charts. "No Good Deed" stars Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano alongside an ensemble cast that includes Luke Wilson, Linda Cardellini, and Denis Leary. The show follows several couples who are all looking to buy the same house, which in and of itself doesn't sound all that thrilling. However, not only are the series' critics scores good quite good, but also the streaming crowds seemingly can't get enough of it.
