Netflix sitcom branded ‘most surprising funny show in a long time’ cracks UK chart after quiet return

The sitcom Tires has broken into the Netflix UK and Ireland top 10 after its return for season 2.

In the realm of humor set in a family-owned auto repair shop, Shane Gillis takes center stage as both creator and lead actor. The narrative revolves around a character named Will, who is struggling to keep things running smoothly. However, this becomes quite a challenge when an annoying and seemingly unhelpful cousin decides to join the team.

The second season, boasting Spider-Man: No Way Home and Thomas Haden Church from Twisted Metal among its cast members (with double the number of episodes compared to season 1), was released on a popular streaming platform this past Thursday (June 5th).

At the moment, the show is number 10 on the Netflix UK and Ireland programme charts.

On IMDb, there’s an abundance of favorable user reviews. Fans often describe season 1 as “a surprisingly hilarious series I haven’t laughed at this much in quite some time” and “easily binge-worthy.

As a dedicated gamer, I’ve noticed that many viewers share the sentiment that the plotline of this series isn’t particularly humorous at first glance, and the initial episode can be a tad sluggish. However, as the episodes progress, it really hits its comedic stride, becoming a rollercoaster ride of laughter.

Additionally, it’s worth noting that the recently released four-part series titled “Adolescence” has secured the position as Netflix’s second most-watched English language show ever, boasting an impressive viewership of approximately 141.2 million viewers.

Additionally, it turned out to be the initial streaming series to lead the United Kingdom’s weekly television ratings, making a second season discussion premature but not unexpected.

Tires seasons 1 and 2 are available to stream on Netflix now.

The inaugural print issue of Digital Spy is available! Pick up a copy of “British Comedy Legends” from newsstands or purchase it online, currently selling for only £3.99.
