Netflix has been pushing out a ton of great content lately. They’ve stepped their game up this year, and this is why we were excited to see a new tense show take the Global top spot last week.
That series seems to be playing for keeps because Unseen is the #1 thriller on the Netflix TV (Global English) chart for the second week in a row.
In the show, Zenzi Mwale hides behind her identity as an unremarkable cleaning lady while desperately searching for her husband after he’s released from prison.

Unseen was created by Ozgur Onurme and stars Frank Rautenbach, Gail Mabalane, and Mothusi Magano. All six episodes are streaming on Netflix.
This Netflix original seems to be exactly what the people wanted at the right time. Many viewers are blown away by Gail Mabalane’s performance as a woman willing to kill to get her husband back.
Others are so excited to have a new favorite South African thriller on the streamer. Quite a few are saying that it was only six episodes and trying to figure out what to do now that the ride is over.
