Netflix’s Perfect Schitt’s Creek Replacement Is a Streaming Hit With Millions of Views

As a huge fan of Schitt’s Creek, I’m always on the lookout for something that captures that same magic. And honestly, I think I’ve found it! There’s a new show out that feels like a spiritual successor – it even stars and was co-created by one of the people behind Schitt’s Creek. It just dropped on Netflix and it’s already blown up, getting close to 3 million views in its first week – seriously, everyone’s talking about it!

Dan Levy, the creator of Schitt’s Creek, is back with a new series called Big Mistakes. The show follows two siblings who accidentally get mixed up in a crime world and are forced to work for drug dealers to escape a chaotic situation. It’s a genuinely funny and highly addictive comedy from one of today’s most talented comedic voices.

Big Mistakes Fills Big Shoes

Even though Big Mistakes is still getting started in its first season, it’s clear the show is incredibly enjoyable – it’s both darkly humorous and heartwarming. While it follows the massive success of Schitt’s Creek, creator Dan Levy isn’t trying to repeat that formula. He’s forging his own path as both an actor and a creative force. As critic Bill Brioux puts it, taking a risk after a huge hit is expected, but Big Mistakes is definitely its own thing – a chance for Levy to explore something new and different.

Viewers are already excited about a potential second season, with many praising the show as a fresh and funny take on comedy. One fan described it as hilariously unpredictable, a welcome change from typical Netflix comedies. In a landscape of formulaic sitcoms, its originality is a major strength, helping it attract a dedicated audience. It looks like Big Mistakes has a lot of potential for a great Season 2, promising more of the relatable and wonderfully awkward moments we’ve come to expect from its endearing, but often disastrous, sibling duo.
