“Maestro in Blue” climbed to the Top 10 of the series in 31 countries' first Greek show

Usually, the Top-10 list on Netflix is just a roundup of its newest big Netflix originals, sometimes with the odd classic movie that's just been added to the service in there for good measure. However, that's not the case right now.

In the US, the Netflix Top 10 list of TV shows have a surprise entry at number 10: Maestro in Blue.

Why's this surprising? Firstly, it's the only entry in the Top 10 that's not a Netflix Original. All of the other shows are ones created for Netflix.

Secondly, it's the first-ever Greek series to hit Netflix (not including shows based on, or focusing on Ancient Greek stories). While Netflix has ramped up its European productions in recent years, Greece is a country that's missed out on the commissioning rounds.

Maestro in Blue debuted in October 2022 on Greece's Mega Channel, and it was quickly picked up by Netflix for international distribution. It consists of nine episodes, and a second season is already in production.

It tells the story of a failing musician who travels to the island of Paxos to run its local music festival, where he meets a young aspiring musician and romance blossoms. That makes it sound like a musical love story, but there's also murder and drama within the Paxos community, enough so that the show is billed as a crime drama. So there's something for everything!

Also According to the daily ranking presented by the flixpatrol.com ‘Maestro In Blue’ started its campaign on March 19, 2023, in the Top 10 of the world, while as the figures also show, countries such as Argentina, Israel, Malta, Poland, Romania, Turkey and Uruguay shot it to their Top5.
