Netflix is pulling a top-rated comedy drama from its catalogue, and fans of the show certainly aren't happy.

The streaming service is home to more than 7,000 titles, from 'hidden gem' comedies to X-rated dramas that have viewers raving.

But Netflix shakes things up every so often, adding new TV series and movies every few days.

It also means some titles must go - like these 105, which are leaving in July.

Content is usually removed due to licencing deals expiring, although the platform does sometimes remove its own original shows, too.

But fans are angry that this '10/10' HBO series is on its way out after a three-year stint on Netflix.

The comedy-drama was created by Black Mirror star Issa Rae and comedian Larry Wilmore and was inspired by Rae’s web series Awkward Black Girl.

It centers on Issa Dee (Rae), a young African-American woman navigating the ups and downs of friendship, career and romance while living in Los Angeles.

Joined by her best friend Molly (Yvonne Orji), the duo face life with a sharp sense of humor, as they tackle everything from awkward experiences and self-discoveries.

The show ran for three seasons on HBO between 2016 to 2021, before joining Netflix US in 2023. Since its Netflix arrival, it's has racked up more than 92 million hours, as per figures from FlixPatrol.

Which checks, considering so many fans claim it's their favorite re-watch.

The show in question is Insecure - which has earned an impressive 97 percent Rotten Tomatoes score from critics.

Its debut season alone racked up a perfect 100 percent score, while social media users have hailed it a '10/10' comfort show.

Critics hailed it an 'insightful, raunchy, and hilarious journey through the life of a twenty-something black woman that cuts through stereotypes with sharp wit and an effusive spirit'.

Meanwhile one audience member summed it up: "Truly one of the best TV shows you’ll ever watch.

"If you’re thinking about putting this on, put it on. The show has true heart, humor, and great writing."

Needless to say, fans were devastated at the show leaving Netflix.

Reacting to the removal, one Twitter user said: "Binge watching Insecure again since Netflix is getting rid of it," with an eye-roll emoji.

"Insecure leaving Netflix is really pissing me off," a second weighed in, as a third wrote: "I still cannot believe they’re taking Insecure off of Netflix."

All three seasons of Insecure are streaming now on Netflix until Thursday July 3.
