Netflix adds all six seasons of ‘wild’ crime drama fans are hooked on

All six seasons of an 'addictive' drama series have been added to Netflix - and fans can't pull themselves away.

The platform is renowned for its compelling crime dramas - just take the ferociously popular Dept Q as the perfect example.

Starring Matthew Goode, it follows a former detective who takes on a mysterious cold case that ends up consuming his entire life.

But Netflix also adds exciting TV shows from other broadcasters too.

It's constantly shaking up its offerings, removing some titles and adding dozens more every other day.

And a recent addition has caused quite the excitement - among fans who are keen to rewatch the show, and those who've never had the chance.

The series, which joined Netflix around the start of June, is based on a 2010 Australian movie, itself inspired by the notorious Pettingill criminal family from Melbourne.

The US drama, based in Southern California, follows teenager Joshua 'J' Cody (Finn Cole), who is dealing with the aftermath of his mom's death from a drug overdose.

J, just 17 years old, must move in with his estranged family, whose lavish lifestyle is fueled by a criminal empire lead by none other than his grandmother, Janine 'Smurf' Cody (Ellen Barkin).

To survive, J must earn his place in the family business, fearlessly taking on heists, trafficking and more in a bid to make some money.

The series first aired on TNT between June 2016 and August 2022.

And now, all 75 episodes have been added to Netflix in the US, making for a binge-watch you can really get stuck in to.

The series we're talking about is, of course, Animal Kingdom.

The show's addition has created serious buzz on social media, with previous viewers gearing up for a re-watch.

It's also caught the attention of subscribers who've never caught the drama before, as one curious person asked the Netflix Bangers Facebook Group: "Is Animal Kingdom a good series?"

The majority of the comments answered with a resounding yes, as one person responded: "One of the best."

A second wrote: "Yessssss. I'm on season 4. I can't stop [watching]."

While a third agreed: "Soooo addictive."

Someone else admitted: "Yes! So good! It’s really hard to shut off and go to bed."

The discussion continued over on Reddit, where one fan was keen to celebrate the show's addition.

"I watched the series in its entirety last month, thought, 'How was I not aware of this extraordinary TV show? People would be obsessed if it were on Netflix'," one user responded. "Now everyone else will get to finally see this hidden gem."

"I'm saying!!" someone else replied, adding: "I watched this show when it first came out yearsss ago and I've always recommended it to people. So good. Great cast."

"Literally started it again 2 days ago. Super happy I did," one re-watcher shared, as a new fan gave their verdict: "I just started my first watch on Netflix! On season 1 ep 9. It’s wild so far."

Over on Rotten Tomatoes, Animal Kingdom racked up an overall score of 87 percent from audience members. On IMDb, it was similarly rated a strong 8.2 out of 10.

Some fans complained the show's quality dipped after the fourth season, but one concluded: "Overall, still my favorite shows ever. A must-watch."
