Netflix viewers are binge-watching the new eight-part drama 'Ripple' in a single day, with the series being described as 'sweet' and 'soulful'. Released at the start of the week, it has already climbed to fifth place on the streaming platform, behind 'The Abandons' and 'Stranger Things'.
The series follows four strangers in New York City navigating their lives after experiencing a pivotal loss, creating a ripple effect that interconnects their stories. Originally announced as a Hallmark series in 2024, the show retains the brand's signature cosy and heartfelt style.
Fans have taken to social media to express their love for the series, with one viewer calling it 'a must see' and another describing it as 'a sweet holiday watch'. A third fan said the show 'feels like a hug and a gut punch at the same time'. Many are already demanding a second season.
Creator Michele Giannusa has revealed she has plans for a multi-season arc, stating: 'When the show started in development, I had five seasons in my pocket. I really, really hope we can keep telling these stories.' The cast includes Frankie Faison as Walter, Julia Chan as Kris, Ian Harding as Nate, and Sydney Agudong as Aria.
