In 2016, out of the top 12 streaming shows that got the most buzz, every single one was Netflix except for Amazon's "The Man in The High Castle" (at No. 7), according to a new report by research firm Parrot Analytics.

It also had a pair of mystery sci-fi hits with "Stranger Things" and the more recent "The OA." The only documentary series to crack the top list was "Making a Murderer" at No. 8, whose expansive global conversation actually had a real-world effect the case.
