Trivia
The original US version debuted in February 2020 and became a worldwide hit for Netflix. It wasn't before long that other countries decided to cash in and make their own version for the streaming service. Brazil was the first country to release their version in October 2021 and have made a further three series after that, Japan was next in February 2022 who originally greenlit plans for a second series a month after their version finished releasing episodes but they were later cancelled in October, and Sweden who is the latest country to release their version in January 2024 but their version has one host unlike the other versions which have two. Upcoming versions alongside the UK include Mexico, Argentina, Germany and United Arab Emirates.
