True crime has gone from a little-known genre to one of the biggest in the world over the last decade or so – and is so far from niche that giants likeNetflixare all over it in their bid to bethe best streaming serviceon the planet.

Back in 2022, Netflix debuted a new series calledWorst Roommate Ever, which, despite the slightly corny title, became a mega-hit thanks to its anthology format. Each episode told a true crime story with insights from those who lived through it or investigated it.

The twist, of course, was that each story involved someone with a nightmarish roommate or housemate, generally speaking, and the person who went on to criminal ends. Now there’s a second season coming, and Netflix has teased it with a short glimpse at one story that we’ll be exploring. I can’t wait!

The teaser gives us a couple of brief interview snippets concerning a man called Scott, and charting some of his early odd behaviours. As you can well see: many of the reenactions are presented as animation, giving an additional quirk to this successful series.

We hear how Scott would slam doors late at night and come into his housemate’s room to apparently check if he was there, without permission, and at antisocial hours. He would scare his housemate’s cats, and generally seemed creepy.

We then get a snippet indicating that the landlord at the time, a woman called Anita, wasn’t able to see through Scott’s charming facade to the more sinister truths beneath it. That setup makes it pretty easy to gather that the story won’t end well for someone – but we’re clearly going to have to wait for the season to drop to find out more!

That we’ll be getting more animations forcertain scenes – which were the trademark of the first season – will surely help it to stand out a little in an otherwise crowded market. There’s been all sorts of true crime series of late, competing with hugely successfulsci-fi seriesacross various streaming outlets.

Netflix certainly wants to be seen as thebest streaming servicefor true crime fans, between this and other series likeDon’t F**K with CatsandTiger King– perhaps with this show’s second season it’ll have another key weapon in its arsenal (not that that saved Tiger King, really, but we live in hope!).
