‘Manifest’ Has Shot to #1 on Netflix Less Than 1 Week After the Season 4 Finale

Manifest is back! And clearly fans were anxious for the second half of season 4, because the show has already shot to #1 on Netflix's list of most-watched shows, less than a week after the new episodes premiered.

Currently, the show is sitting above other major titles, including The Ultimatum: Queer Love, FUBAR and All American.

It's unsurprising that Manifest is getting those numbers, given that the show has racked up a really strong fanbase over the years.

The series used to air on NBC until it was suddenly canceled in June 2021, following its third season. Upon learning this information, fans were devastated until Netflix (who had already been streaming the earlier seasons) announced it would pick up the show for a fourth and final season.

And while anticipation for the fourth season has been high, it seems Manifest lived up to the expectations.

The final season was split into two parts, with the first ten episodes premiering last fall and the remaining installments debuting this month.

Upon watching the second half, PureWow's Nakeisha Campbell still had some unanswered questions. She wrote, “Manifest season 4 part 2 is a thrilling and emotional ride, with strong performances and even more head-scratching mysteries to unpack. It doesn't answer every question, but it reveals just enough to give fans some closure.”

While returning fans are streaming the show, it's likely that new fans are getting sucked into the series as well, and we'll be curious to see if this season of Manifest can challenge Netflix's biggest premieres.

We know what we’ll be watching this weekend.
