The critically-acclaimed drama series “Normal People,” which features Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal, can currently be streamed on Netflix.
The show, derived from Sally Rooney’s 2018 novel with the same title, narrates the tale of Marianne Sheridan (portrayed by Edgar-Jones) and Connell Waldron (played by Mescal). It follows their romantic journey from teenage years into early adulthood.
As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve recently discovered that the heartwarming series “Normal People,” originally aired on BBC Three, Hulu, and RTÉ One back in 2020, has moved its digital residence here in the UK. Now, I can easily access all 12 captivating episodes of this romantic drama right here on Netflix – perfect for those cozy, quiet gaming nights!
Besides being accessible on Netflix, you can also stream the series on Disney+ in the UK. The series was recently added to Disney+’s streaming library. If you’d rather watch it on BBC iPlayer, you’ll be happy to know that all 12 episodes are still available there as well!
Under the guidance of Hettie Macdonald and Lenny Abrahamson, who was also nominated for an Academy Award, Normal People was met with widespread praise upon its debut. It earned four nominations at the Primetime Emmy Awards and a remarkable 91% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
In our critique, we labeled the “impeccably chosen” series as “stunning,” noting that it immerses viewers deeply, effectively portraying the profound love shared by Marianne and Connell, a connection that surpasses mere physicality.
According to TIME Magazine, this 12-episode limited series vividly portrays the turmoil and passion of youthful romance, as both characters grapple with their individual challenges related to friendship, past hurts, and mental wellbeing.
The website BBC.com highly commended the production, remarking: “Every aspect of its creation – from the script and cinematography, to the performances and character dynamics – is flawlessly executed, creating an authentic on-screen connection that resembles a genuine relationship.
In their opinions, “[It] is incredibly true to the original novel. The main distinction lies in its emotional tone and the depth with which it delves into feelings. I found it deeply moving and heart-wrenching, in a very impactful way,” said _The New York Times_, while _The Globe and Mail_ described it as “intensely powerful.
The captivating romantic drama resonated deeply with both critics and audiences, sparking discussion about potential continuation. Last year, Edgar-Jones and Mescal playfully hinted to fans that a sequel might emerge at some point.
Normal People is streaming now on Netflix, Disney+ and BBC iPlayer.
