The Day of the Jackal and the most popular Sky Originals 

As a gamer with years of experience in binge-watching TV shows and movies, I must say that Sky Originals have been consistently delivering top-notch content lately. The recent release of Eddie Redmayne’s “The Day of the Jackal” has truly taken the streaming world by storm. With its record-breaking audience of three million in the first week, it has become the biggest Sky Original ever – a title that speaks volumes about the quality of the production and storytelling.


Eddie Redmayne’s “The Day of the Jackal” has made a loud debut and is now available for streaming; this spy thriller holds the title as Sky Original’s biggest yet, quite an accomplishment! Are you curious about other highly-anticipated Sky Originals? Take a look below to see if you’ve caught them all.

As reported by Televisional, the action-drama “The Day of the Jackal” had a massive debut, surpassing the previous record of attracting three million viewers in its initial week. The series made its premiere on Peacock on November 7th, releasing the first five episodes. The sixth episode was released on November 14th, and there are four more episodes yet to come. If you haven’t started watching yet, don’t worry – you can still tune in and get caught up!

Alongside Eddie Redmayne, “The Day of the Jackal” features Lashana Lynch, Ursula Corbero, Charles Dance, and more notable actors. This British production is adapted from Frederick Forsyth’s novel with the same title. The series boasts a captivating plotline and an impressive ensemble cast that makes it a must-watch.

The best Sky Originals to stream

Despite The Day of the Jackal failing to impress Sky’s rating system, there is still a wealth of entertainment available from the British broadcaster. Here are three additional shows worth checking out:

  • A Discovery of Witches: Streaming on Netflix, MGM+, Acorn TV 
  • Chernobyl: Streaming on Max and Hulu
  • The Heist: Streaming on Prime Video 

A Discovery of Witches

The supernatural drama series “A Discovery of Witches,” featuring Teresa Palmer and Matthew Goode, is a hit among fans. If you’re into fantasy blended with a generous dose of romance and high-drama, this show is for you. There’s no reason to miss out as it’s available on Netflix, MGM+, Acorn TV, and other streaming platforms. Despite its cancellation in early 2022 after three seasons, I strongly recommend giving it a watch!

Chernobyl

Up next is the historical drama “Chernobyl,” produced by Craig Mazin and starring Jared Harris, Stellan Skarsgard, Paul Ritter, among others. This is a miniseries, consisting of just five episodes, making it an ideal choice if you’re looking for a short series to watch over the weekend. As you might infer from its title, “Chernobyl” is inspired by the devastating nuclear plant disaster that occurred in April 1986. You can stream it on Max or Hulu.

The Heist

In conclusion, don’t miss out on “The Heist” now streaming on Prime Video! This one is unique, which is why we are highlighting it. “The Heist” is a reality competition series where two teams face off: “The Thieves” (common contestants) and “The Detectives” (former law enforcement officers). It’s an exciting show, and I recommend experiencing it without knowing too much in advance.
