As 2017 wraps up Netflix is looking back on our year of bingeing; the shows we devoured, the shows we savoured and the shows that got us cheating.
鈥淲hat a difference a year makes,鈥� writes Netflix.
鈥淲e learned how to launder money (Ozark) and profile serial killers (MINDHUNTER). That life is better with wrestling (GLOW) and just as crazy without Pablo (Narcos). And once again, that Eleven is not to be messed with (Stranger Things). The only thing we didn鈥檛 learn鈥� who drew the dicks (American Vandal).鈥�
According to the streaming media company, 2017 brought a lot of learning and a whole bunch of time in front of the screen.
Netflix members around the world watched more than 140 million hours per day, a little more one billion hours per week.
The most popular of which fell on Sunday, Jan. 1 鈥� just one day in to the new year and we were already ready to binge.
Netflix notes that even Antarctica got in on the watching action, where someone, a penguin presumably, binged through Shamelesss.
鈥淭alk about Netflix and chill.鈥�
Not to be outdone, Mexico takes the top spot for having the most members to watch Netflix every-single-day.
The one the company is really scratching its heads about is the person who apparently watched Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl 365 days in a row.
鈥淎n impressive feat, especially as the average member watched around 60 movies on Netflix this year.鈥�
The Shows We Devoured in 2017
We took an escape from reality in 2017 by devouring (watching more than two hours per day) sci-fi series likes of 3%, Travelers and The OA. The question of 鈥榳hodunit鈥� (and didn鈥檛 do it) in The Keepers and The Confession Tapes also had us watching with might.

The Shows We Savored in 2017
We needed a laugh this year and found that solace by savouring (watching less than two hours per day) shows like Atypical, GLOW, Dear White People and Big Mouth. We also took care to enjoy the splendor of The Crown (it is a visual feast fit for a queen after all).
