Here For A Good Time AND A Long Time
Looking for something to binge but not looking forward to the disappointment when you realize you’re on episode 9…and there’s only 10 episodes in the whole series? Given Netflix’s reputation for canceling things before their time, it can be hard to pick out a good watch on the platform—but we’ve compiled a list of the Netflix series with the most episodes, so you can make sure that your next binge is nice and long.
Love Is Blind
7 seasons, 97 episodes
2020-
It’s hard to believe, given the fact that it feels like it debuted yesterday, but Love Is Blind is the most prolific Netflix original series on the streaming platform—and with 97 episodes and counting, it’s easy to sink into the couch and get into the dating show with the wild premise.
But if reality isn’t your thing, don’t worry—there’s a whole lot of comedy and drama on this list too.
Netflix, Love is Blind (2020- )
Grace And Frankie
7 seasons, 94 episodes
2015-2022
This comedy series, co-created by one of the geniuses behind Friends, paired screen legends Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, and brought along a whole slew of icons for the ride as well, including Sam Waterston and Martin Sheen. It was a rough ride at first, but it founds its footing as it went along, and seasons 3-5 scored 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Orange Is the New Black
7 seasons, 91 episodes
2013-2019
Netflix has been making original content for just over a decade, and Orange Is the New Black was not only one of their first series, it was one of their first big successes. The comedy-drama went on for six years and a whopping 91 episodes, and while later seasons did see a small dip in quality, it’s one heck of a roller-coaster ride the whole way through.

The Circle
7 seasons, 90 episodes
2020-
This reality competition show, which debuted the same year as Love Is Blind, has been going for an impressive 90 episodes. If dating reality shows aren’t your thing, The Circle has been described as an intriguing mix of Big Brother and Catfish with a touch of Black Mirror.
The Ranch
8 parts, 80 episodes
2016-2020
Netflix tends to proudly tout its own original content—but it doesn’t try and draw too much attention to The Ranch. Why? Well, after multiple misconduct allegations against star Danny Masterson, he was written off the show partway through the third season.
Netflix, The Ranch (2016-2020)
Selling Sunset
8 seasons, 79 episodes
2019-
The reality series about a high-end real estate brokerage was a runaway hit for Netflix, and though its lost some cast members along the way, including OGs Heather El Moussa and Christine Quinn, it's still going strong and has sparked a number of spin-offs and imitators in the process.
Netflix, Selling Sunset (2019-)
BoJack Horseman
6 seasons, 77 episodes
2014-2020
Soon after the success of their first originals like House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black, Netflix announced the animated comedy-drama BoJack Horseman, featuring a weird and wonderful cast of characters centering around anthropomorphic horse BoJack, voiced by Will Arnett.
Over the course of the series, its thoughtful approach to serious themes like depression, addiction, trauma, and the human condition brought accolades from fans and critics alike.
Netflix, BoJack Horseman (2014-2020)
Fuller House
5 seasons, 75 episodes
2016-2020
The original ABC sitcom Full House ran for 8 seasons and 192 episodes—but it turns out that wasn’t enough for viewers, who kept its sequel series going on Netflix for an impressive 75 episodes. The update centered on the character of DJ, who by then was a veterinarian and widowed mother of three.
Netflix, Fuller House (2016-2020)
House of Cards
6 seasons, 73 episodes
2013-2018
The original jewel in the Netflix crown, House of Cards was the platform’s first big foray into original programming—and its success forever changed the face of television, proving that you didn’t need to be on HBO to be prestige TV. The political drama is still as thrilling and compelling today as it was when it originally came out—but if you watch it now, you don’t have to suffer through the interminable wait between seasons that OG fans endured.
Netflix, House of Cards (2013-2018)
Big Mouth
7 seasons, 71 episodes
2017-
BoJack Horseman definitely paved the way for Big Mouth, which will likely surpass its predecessor in 2025 when its final season debuts. The coming-of-age animated comedy is voiced by an all-star cast including Nick Kroll, John Mulaney, and Jenny Slate, and pretty much every person who has ever watched it has great things to say about it.

The Crown
6 seasons, 60 episodes
2016-2023
When The Crown debuted, it was hard to know what to expect. How could they make a historical drama about a living figure? Well, a lot has happened since then…but during its run, The Crown not only gave audiences a stellar cast, but also a behind-the-curtains take on some of the royal family’s wildest scandals.
Netflix, The Crown (2016-2023)
Formula 1: Drive To Survive
6 seasons, 60 episodes
2019-
Got a need for speed? This sports documentary series gives a behind-the-scenes look at the world of Formula One, following drivers as their prepare for the annual championships. It’s a must-see for any motor sports fan—but is also likely to win over the uninitiated.
Netflix, Formula 1: Drive To Survive (2019-)
Too Hot To Handle
6 seasons, 59 episodes
2020-
If you’ve already burned through all of Love Is Blind, it’s time to turn to Too Hot to Handle, which is like if the walls were removed from the LIB pods—but the contestants weren’t allowed to touch. Netflix is apparently the reigning champ of melding the dating reality competition with utterly awkward moments, and Too Hot to Handle is proof.
Netflix, Too Hot to Handle (2020-)
The Dragon Prince
6 seasons, 54 episodes
2018-
This animated fantasy series for children is set on a continent called Xadia, and centers around a pair of human princes and an elf dealing with a conflict that’s a thousand years old.

Netflix, The Dragon Prince (2018-)
Virgin River
5 seasons, 54 episodes
2019-
Virgin River made a big splash this week when it was announced that it would be renewed for a sixth season, making it the longest-running drama currently airing on Netflix—but if it somehow flew under the radar for you, you’re not the only one. The romantic drama is based on a series of novels, and centers on a midwife/nurse practitioner who moves to a remote community to start a new life.
It stars Alexandra Breckenridge and has been compared to Hallmark originals and called “gentle”. While that may not sound particularly exciting, the consensus among fans is that the show’s low-stakes drama makes it a great comfort watch.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
4 seasons, 52 episodes
2015-2020
As Netflix moved into the comedy sphere, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt came in to fill the hole in our hearts that 30 Rock left behind when it went off the air—and tellingly, it was co-created by Tina Fey. Even more wild and wacky than its predecessor, Ellie Kemper and a supporting cast featuring living legends like Jane Krakowski, Carol Kane, and Tituss Burgess brought more laughs per minute than any other Netflix comedy.
Netflix, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (2015-2020)
Trailer Park Boys
5 seasons, 50 episodes
2014-2018
The long-running Canadian mockumentary comedy series which originally ran from 2001-2008 was brought back by Netflix in 2014 for a continuation which spanned 50 episodes—not to mention a slew of specials. If you’ve never given TPB a try, it’s time—but buyer beware. If you get hooked, the original series is very hard to find on DVD.
Netflix, Trailer Park Boys (2014-2018)
Disenchantment
5 parts, 50 episodes
2018-2023
If there’s one thing Netflix is good at, it’s offering scads of cash to some of television’s most legendary show creators to get them to create new material. Disenchantment comes from The Simpsons creator Matt Groening, and was his first show to appear exclusively on a streaming service. It’s set in the fictional medieval fantasy kingdom of Dreamland and “stars” Bean, a rebellious princess with a drinking problem.
Netflix, Disenchantment (2018-2023)
Aggretsuko
5 seasons, 50 episodes
2018-2023
Never heard of Aggretsuko? It’s Netflix’s longest-running anime series—and it’s a workplace comedy. It centers on a red panda named Retsuko, her trials and tribulations at the office, and her love for death metal karaoke. Definitely not what we were expecting when we looked up “longest-running anime on Netflix”.
Netflix, Aggretsuko (2018-2023)
13 Reasons Why
4 seasons, 49 episodes
2017-2020
The teen drama-mystery was definitely a runaway hit, and while critics had a lot of well-deserved criticism to level at the show, it did make for an interesting first season and Katherine Langford’s performance cemented her as a star with a ton of potential.
As for the seasons that followed? Well, you know what they say—if you can’t say anything nice…
Netflix, 13 Reasons Why (2017-2020)
Car Masters: Rust To Riches

This reality show is a must for any gearhead. It centers around the crew at Gotham Garage, who are best known for building props for TV and movies. In the series, they restore classic cars and give them modern makeovers in hopes of selling them for a big profit—but there’s also some real wacky projects in there too, like their attempt to make a smart car into a monster truck in the very first episode.

Ozark
4 seasons, 44 episodes
2017-2022
This crime drama was as taught and tense as they come, featuring an all-star cast including Jason Bateman, Laura Linney, and Julia Garner in a true break-out role. The series—whose plot can be described ever-so-briefly as scammers scamming scammers scamming scammers—was full of suspense and dread and pulled out all-time great performances from its stars.

4 seasons, 44 episodes
2018-2022

Love Is Blind: Brazil
4 seasons, 43 episodes
2021-
Ask any true reality fan, and they’ll tell you that the American versions of hit shows are often the inferior ones to the wilder, more fun international versions. And the word among those types is that Love Is Blind: Brazil truly takes the crazy of the US version up a notch, making it worth turning on those subtitles.
Netflix, Love Is Blind Brazil (2021-)

For this travel documentary series, Everybody Loves Raymond’s creator, writer, and executive producer Philip Rosenthal stepped out from behind the camera and sat down in front of it to chow down. The series follows him as he visits cities across the globe, sampling their best cuisine and shining on a spotlight on the causes that are most important there.
