How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Tops UK Netflix as Renewal Hangs on Viewership

Renewal remains undecided despite strong reviews plus a buzzy cliffhanger.

Overview

  • Lisa McGee’s eight-episode series premiered on Netflix on February 12 and follows three friends drawn into a dark mystery.
  • The show has reached number one on Netflix in the UK, while Forbes reports it has not appeared on the US Top 10 list.
  • Critic reception is strong, with a reported 91% Rotten Tomatoes score, even as some reviews question the show’s dense, genre-blending style.
  • Coverage of the finale notes an unanswered tease involving a pink bag, which McGee says she left deliberately vague.
  • Netflix has not announced a second season, and both the creator and cast say any continuation depends on audience numbers.
