One of the popular political comedies is gearing up to leave Netflix, officially putting a clock on its streaming availability for many viewers. Fans who streamed it during its global boom, or those who still haven’t pressed play, now have a limited window to binge before it quietly exits the platform.
Servant of the People is leaving Netflix in March
All seasons of Servant of the People are set to exit Netflix on March 12, wrapping up the streaming run for the Ukrainian satire that recently blew up worldwide (via What’s on Netflix). The series first dropped in 2015 and quickly became a breakout hit across Eastern Europe before streaming pushed it onto the global stage.
The story tracks an ordinary high school history teacher who suddenly lands the presidency of Ukraine after his anti-corruption rant goes viral. In a twist, the star of the show, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, later won the real presidency in 2019. The unique overlap between fiction and reality is widely credited for fueling the show’s global curiosity and renewed viewership.
The series mixes biting political satire with easy, crowd-pleasing humor. Volodymyr Zelenskyy leads the cast, supported by performers like Stanislav Boklan, who help keep the show’s tone both funny and pointed. Even with a fairly modest budget, the production managed to pull in strong regional ratings and built impressive international buzz.
From a reception standpoint, the numbers look solid. The series carries a 7.3/10 score on IMDb, signaling strong audience approval. Rotten Tomatoes has limited critic data available, but overall, viewer response seems to have stayed largely positive, especially after Zelenskyy’s real-life political rise put the show back in the global spotlight.
For viewers interested in politically charged satire with real-world echoes, the clock is now ticking to stream the full run before it leaves the platform.
