The Channel 4 sitcom Everyone Else Burns, which first aired in 2023, is now popular on Netflix UK. It was added to the platform yesterday, February 1st, and is currently the ninth most-watched show.
This show centers on a family in Manchester involved in a strict religious group called The Order. They believe the world is about to end and are preparing for it.
But some people are growing tired of that lifestyle and wish for a more ordinary life, which is causing arguments within their families and some strange occurrences.

The show features Simon Bird, known from The Inbetweeners, Kate O’Flynn from Bridget Jones’s Baby, Amy James-Kelly who starred in Coronation Street, Morgana Robinson of Taskmaster, and Lolly Adefope from Shrill.
All 12 episodes, spanning two seasons, are currently available to watch on Netflix. You can also stream the entire series on Channel 4’s streaming platform.
Currently, Everyone Else Burns has a 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based largely on reviews of its first season.
TIME Magazine praised the show as a clever and well-crafted family sitcom, highlighting its realistic portrayal of both relatable family struggles and the emotional journey of growing up. They also declared it the best new comedy on traditional television since Abbott Elementary.
Critics have praised the acting in Everyone Else Burns, with Common Sense Media calling each performance flawless. The Daily Beast described it as a funny, fast-paced six-episode comedy.
Okay, so while critics seem pretty split, the general fan reaction is… okay, I guess? Looking at IMDb, with over 2,100 ratings, people are giving it around a 6.8 out of 10. It’s not amazing, but it’s definitely not terrible either!
One viewer praised the show as a clever and funny take on organized religion, family dynamics, and life in modern Britain. They also appreciated its uplifting message and overall enjoyable quality, making it a highly recommended watch.
One viewer felt the show accurately portrayed life in a tightly-knit religious community, but questioned whether those outside of it would get all the humor.
Everyone Else Burns is available to stream on Channel 4 and Netflix now.
The latest issue of Living Legends, a vibrant 100-page tribute to Taylor Swift, is now available! You can purchase it for only £8.99 at newsagents or online.
