How did S03 perform?
The third season of The Night Agent, released on February 19, has been a major success for Netflix. It is currently the streamer's second most-watched show, only behind Bridgerton's fourth season, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The show's popularity has also led to a resurgence in viewership for its first two seasons, which have re-entered Netflix's weekly top 10 rankings.

He clarified, "We're not officially picked up yet, but we've been actively working on the writers' room." Ryan added, "We are just focused on the creative, and when the time comes for Netflix to pick up, they'll let you guys know."
