A German revenge thriller is shaking up the Netflix charts with its new season. And kicks the final season of Cobra Kai off the series throne in just one day
A series that even horror author Stephen King is a fan of can’t be all that bad. That’s apparently what Netflix subscribers from this country thought, as the second season of the local revenge thriller went straight to number one in the series charts.
After just one day, the new season of Kleo, which has been online since July 25, 2024, overtook the first half of the Cobra Kai final season. Will the feat be achieved again internationally?
Kleo season 2 beats Cobra Kai on Netflix – and that’s what it’s all about
In Kleo, Jella Haase (Fack ju Göhte) plays a top spy and contract killer for the Stasi who is arrested on her last mission in West Germany in 1987. After reunification, she returns to a Berlin that is foreign to her and discovers a far-reaching conspiracy while plotting personal revenge.

In season 2, Kleo and police officer Sven (Dimitrij Schaad) are once again on the trail of the mysterious red suitcase. The CIA and KGB are also after the contested object, which is now in other hands. And when the Americans and Russians are pursuing the same goals, chaos is soon in store for our ex-spy.
Only six new episodes went online in contrast to the eight-part debut season. It is not yet clear whether there will be another Kleo chapter. As successful as the 2nd season has started, the signs seem to be good that the series can overcome the difficult Netflix hurdle
