- Netflix released Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials on January 15 as a three-part limited series led by Mia McKenna-Bruce, with Helena Bonham Carter and Martin Freeman in key roles.
- The series sits at No. 2 on Netflix globally and has surpassed HBO’s Heated Rivalry in online conversation, signaling strong buzz despite mixed sentiment.
- Critical and audience responses are split, with a mid-70s critics score on Rotten Tomatoes and audience ratings in the low-to-mid 50s cited across coverage.
