Netflix has viewers hooked on binge-worthy drama viewed for 13.6m hours as it climbs US charts

'The urge to keep watching is undeniable'

Netflix viewers have boosted an 'outstanding' medical drama up the streamer's most-watched charts.

The series is currently sitting at the number two spot of the platform's US TV rankings, below the 'insane' thriller series, Wayward.

So if you're looking for something new to get lost in, then stop your doomscrolling and stick this new-to-Netflix series on instead.

The Fox original first aired in January before joining Netflix on Thursday (September 23). In that short time, it's been binged for more than 13.6 million hours, according to FlixPatrol.

As it landed on Netflix, its second season premiered on Fox, adding to the buzz around the 'refreshing' drama series.

Better yet, it's based on the shocking real-life story of a top doctor who lost his memory in an off-road car crash.

Doctor Pierdante Piccioni, an Italian medic from Pavia, south of Milan, told PEOPLE how the 2013 collision wiped 13 years of his memory.

In a gut-punch moment, Piccioni forgot his mom's death, believing she was still alive after waking from an hours-long coma.

He also failed to recall his adult sons growing up, thinking they were still children, and couldn't figure out how to use modern technology.

Italian broadcaster Rai 1 developed DOC - Nelle tue mani, inspired by his incredible story.

Fox has since given it an American spin, with Deadwood's Molly Parker as Dr Amy Larsen, the chief of internal medicine at a fictional hospital in Minneapolis, who, after suffering a traumatic brain injury in a car crash, loses the last eight years of her memory.

As she awakens, she finds that much of her life is a mystery to her: she doesn’t remember that she divorced her husband Michael (Jon-Michael Ecker), that her son has died, or the rift that’s grown between her and her now-teenage daughter.

The series follows her as she tries to rebuild her life and reconnect with family, all while reestablishing her career.

The show in question is called Doc, and its premise has gripped fans. Over on Rotten Tomatoes, it earned a solid 76 per cent score from fans.

"I’ll admit - I wasn’t expecting to get through an episode and instead binge watched the entirety of season 1," one converted fan confessed.

One healthcare professional said medical shows weren't usually their thing, but gave Doc a go because of Parker.

"I was pleasantly surprised and, more importantly, entertained," they said. "I burned through the first 10 episodes on Netflix and I’m glad there’s a season 2 coming."

A third praised the show's 'edge of your seat' storytelling and Parker's 'complex performance.'

They wrote: "I must say, I am completely captivated by this show. The urge to keep watching is undeniable.

"The lead actress delivers such a complex performance that one moment you find yourself frustrated with her, the next you sympathize, and eventually, you can’t help but root for her—all of this happens within the first season!"

The first 10 episodes of Doc are streaming now on Netflix US. The first half of its second season continues to air Tuesdays on Fox until November 11.

Season two's episodes can also be streamed on Hulu and Disney+ the day after they've aired on Fox.
