Netflix is adding a critically-acclaimed series to its catalogue - and fans are delighted.

The streaming service is hot on its original content, but every now and then it adds an absolute banger from a different network.

This particular TV series ran for four seasons, winning two Golden Globe Awards and three Primetime Emmy Awards.

Now, with its arrival on Netflix, fans are hoping the show will reach a whole new status of popularity.

The thriller series was created by Leave the World Behind's Sam Esmail and first aired on USA Network between 2015 and 2019.

It follows Elliot Alderson (The Amateur's Rami Malek), a talented but troubled cybersecurity engineer in New York City who secretly works as a vigilante hacker.

Struggling with mental health issues including social anxiety and depression, Elliot is recruited by a mysterious anarchist (Christian Slater) to join a hacktivist group called fsociety.

Their goal is to encrypt the financial data of E Corp, the world’s largest conglomerate, and erase all consumer debt records - triggering a global revolution.

Carrie's Portia Doubleday, Suburgatory's Carly Chaikin and Let The Right One In's Dominique DiPierro also star. The show in question is Mr Robot - and all four seasons join Netflix US on Thursday (July 3).

You can watch the trailer here:

The entire series has earned a stunning 94 percent score from Rotten Tomatoes critics, with the first season winning an almost-perfect 98 percent.

USA Today's Kelly Lawler described it as 'dark, disturbing and full of twists and turns,' adding: "The series became USA's breakout drama for a reason."

Meanwhile, one fan wrote: "Phenomenal original unique series! Very enjoyable viewing, some great writing and exceptional acting, I've really enjoyed watching this."

A second weighed in: "Best series ever made. Period," as a third social media user agreed: "Top of the line show. Might be my favorite of all time."

Reacting to news of the addition on Reddit, fans are excited to see the show reach a 'huge new audience.'

A second agreed: "I hope this does for it what it did for Breaking Bad and helps it pop off even more like it deserves to."

A third said: "We need this show more than ever," as a fourth planned: "Added to my calendar, can't wait to watch this on a loop until it's removed."

All four seasons of Mr Robot are available to stream now on Netflix.
