Netflix’s show quality has been up and down as of late, with its current #1 show, Monster: The Ed Gein Story, reviewing disastrously among critics and audiences alike, a 19% and 55% respectively. But now a new show has hit Netflix with a much better score and just a few percent away from being perfect. It’s also about as far …
