Netflix is famously coy when it comes to sharing information about the ratings of its original shows, but once a year, the streaming giant breaks with tradition by revealing a list of its most binged series. While Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life topped the list in 2017, 2018's No. 1 spot went to a refreshing new show that we couldn't get enough of this year. That being said, the list is generally pretty surprising. See if your favorite Netflix show nabbed top honors ahead!

On My Block, Season 1
In the top spot is On My Block, a diverse coming-of-age dramedy cocreated by Awkward's Lauren Iungerich, Eddie Gonzalez, and Jeremy Haft, which follows four friends as they navigate both their teenage years and life in a rough neighborhood of South Central LA. Thank goodness it's returning for a second season, because we're still devastated thinking about THAT cliffhanger. No wonder Netflix users couldn't get enough of it!
