EXCLUSIVE: Harlan Coben and Nicola Shindler have flagged a “shared vision” and “hybrid British-American sensibilities” as leading to the success of Fool Me Once, Netflix‘s most-watched show in the first half of this year.
The showrunner-producer pair chatted to Deadline in advance of the latest data dump, which sawtheir fourth Netflix UK Coben adaptation top the charts with more than 100 million views in the first half of this year.
And it’s been a good day for the Brits, with Bridgerton, Baby Reindeer and The Gentlemen backing up Fool Me Once in the top four and One Day also making the top 10.
Ted Sarandos was in London earlier this week trumpeting the Brits’ success. With the show having launched nearly a year ago, Coben cited a “shared vision” between himself, Shindler, writer Danny Brocklehurst, producer Richard Fee and Netflix as contributing to its runaway success. “We work hard and want to make something cool and interesting,” he added. “And Netflix make you feel like they are part of your team rather than something you’re working against, which can sometimes occur in these circumstances.” Fool me Once was the streamer’s latest Coben adaptation under a mega deal that will see at least two more shows, Missing You and Run Away, hit TV screens in the coming years.
