Netflix's Adolescence won the most awards at the 2025 Emmys - have you tuned in? Adolescence, which was released in March 2025, centered around 13-year-old boy Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper), who is arrested after the murder of a girl in his school. The psychological crime drama became an overnight success in part because of the way the show was shot - with each episode filmed in one continuous take. After its premiere, Adolescence shattered records becoming the first streaming show to top weekly ratings in the U.K. It opened with 24.3 million views in its first four days before climbing to 66.
