A little-known Netflix show is the only one in the entire IMDb history to have every episode in a season rated 9+.
The show is considered to be ‘under appreciated’ by its fans after it became a record breaking series for Netflix.
The animated program is the only one on the streaming platform to have every single episode get a 9+ rating in one season.

While it debuted back in 2021, it is the second season of Arcane: League of Legends that has people raving about it.
On the Facebook group ‘Netflix Bangers’, one user wrote: “Arcane is the only show in IMDB history to have an entire season where every episode is rated 9+.”
The show follows the origin story of two League of Legends champions who have no choice but to put their sibling loyalties to the side in order to battle it out on opposing fields.
The show itself is based on a popular video game titled League of Legends, and Arcane already had a fanbase before its first season dropped nearly four years ago.
However, that dropped to some pretty disappointing reviews, but when season two landed on Netflix earlier this month, it was the polar opposite.
Episode one and two of the season has an impressive score of 9.1 on IMDb, though scores for the show get even higher.
The sixth episode was seen by most as the best with a 9.8 score, while episode three and five are nearly as impressive with 9.6.
All in all, Arcane is pretty darn good and many are flocking to social media sites to tell fellow subscribers about it.
“Animation is especially good. I found myself pressing the '10 second rewind' constantly to rewatch small body language details. Not just behavioural, but also object interactions,” one person penned on Reddit.
A second added: “I watched it with 0 expectations, I played league years ago but didn't care about anything related to it for a long time, yet it still blew my mind. I was expecting something dumb and light-hearted but was very surprised how dark they were willing to go, this show deals with some heavy themes. Everything is top quality, the visuals are incredibly beautiful, the music is great, the characters and the story are very well written, the pacing is damn near perfect.”
While a third remarked: “It finally happened: Game to Movie that didn't suck.”
