ITVX Unveils Full Seasons of Critically Acclaimed Thrillers
In a major update for streaming enthusiasts, ITVX has made all five episodes of the intense thriller The Stolen Girl available for viewing. This series, which originally premiered on Disney Plus in April 2025, has been hailed by audiences as every parent's worst fear brought to life. Produced by the team behind Harlan Coben's Fool Me Once, the show stars Denise Gough and Jim Sturgess as Elisa and Fred, a couple whose idyllic family existence is shattered when their daughter vanishes after a sleepover.
Viewer Reactions and Critical Praise
On social media platform X, fans have expressed overwhelming praise for The Stolen Girl, despite its harrowing premise. One user, @Lasell_83, commented, "As a mother, this show is my worst fear come to life on screen." Google reviews echo this sentiment, with SDC noting, "At last, a TV series I've binged that has an ending! It had twists and turns galore and was pretty much unpredictable." Additional cast members include Ambika Mod from One Day, Holliday Granger from The Capture and Strike, and Bronagh Waugh from The Suspect, contributing to the series' gripping narrative.
Expanding the Thriller Lineup with 'Yellowjackets'
Alongside The Stolen Girl, ITVX has also added the addictively compelling series Yellowjackets to its free streaming service. First released in 2021, this drama follows a group of teenagers struggling to survive in the wilderness after a plane crash in 1996, inspired by the Andes flight disaster. The second season jumps ahead 25 years, exploring the survivors' efforts to rebuild their lives. A synopsis describes it as "equal parts survival epic, psychological horror story, and coming-of-age drama," delving into the characters' descent into savagery and their ongoing trauma.
Streaming Availability and Industry Context
The Stolen Girl remains accessible on Disney Plus, while its addition to ITVX broadens its reach to a wider audience. This move highlights ITVX's strategy to enhance its content library with high-quality thrillers that resonate with viewers. The platform's recent updates reflect a growing trend in the streaming industry, where services compete by offering exclusive and critically acclaimed series to attract subscribers.
