If you’re looking for a new series to watch on Netflix, you can try “Master of the House,” a new drama series that is currently one of the most-streamed series on the platform. According to FlixPatrol, the show is the third most-watched series worldwide, as of July 21.
The Thai series has been compared to “Succession,” particularly its final season. The story starts with the death of Roongroj Thevasatitpaisarn, the head of the Theva Gems, a diamond business, and how the ambitious family members enter a cutthroat competition for the throne.
However, if “Succession” is told from the perspective of the rich, “Master of the House” also gives voice to the servants, who experience maltreatment of their masters. Here’s what to know about this drama show.
