The Recruit is one of Netflix's best original action shows with an 84% audience score. The Recruit and The Night Agent have similar premises but with different tones. Both The Recruit and The Night Agent are getting second seasons, offering more action-packed adventures.

The Night Agent was able to climb to become Netflix's sixth most watched series on Netflix within a month, but while season 2 remains in development, there's another original action series that's equally praiseworthy, The Recruit. Netflix has had some small success in the action thriller genre since moving into creating original content back in 2011. Money Heist, Bodyguard, and Fubar all offer something different and equally exciting from the genre with high stakes, fierce fights, and non-stop action.

However, The Night Agent offered a very specific type of action series with a young FBI Officer recruited into a special secret organization, known as Night Action, before being dragged into a huge conspiracy.
