Netflix fans praise 'absolutely wild' crime documentary as the best thing since Tiger King

If you're looking for something new to watch on Netflix, then this might just be it.

Admittedly it can be tough going through the masses of content available on the streaming platform and deciding what to watch, but other Netflix users may have done the hard work and found your newest TV fix.

We all remember the obsession we all had with Tiger King, right?

Well some people are saying that this two-part series is the 'best' series since then.

The new documentary is called Last Stop Larrimah, and viewers have labelled it as 'amazing'.

The synopsis for the series reads: "Nestled deep in the Australian Outback is the remote town of Larrimah and its 11 eccentric residents.

"When Paddy Moriarty and his dog Kellie left the local pub and vanished in December of 2017, a long history of infighting is unveiled as the remaining residents become suspects in an unfolding investigation that leads to Paddy being declared dead.

"The documentary, told in five chapters, shines a light on Larrimah's quirky history and how the town's once close-knit and jubilant residents brought about their own fate."

The two-part documentary was initially aired on HBO and has since been added to Netflix.
