Not really a fan of fiction, real life is far more interesting and bizarre anyway. The American Crime Story series are great. Netflix does fantastic serial killer documentaries, and there's always a hidden gem to find. "Abducted In Plain Sight" is an absolute rollercoaster of "WHAT THE FUCK???!?!?" moments. 😂
