Netflix’s latest TV series just started streaming, meaning you can watch it right now if it takes your fancy – and it seems like a really interesting mix of genres. The full boxset it available to binge, too, if you fancy it.

Bodkinstars Will Forte, star of the much-loved seriesThe Last Man on Earth, as an American true crime podcaster who visits the small town of Bodkin in Ireland in search of his next story.

They enlist a local journalist (Siobhán Cullen) to help them pull at threads, and it looks from the series' trailer (embedded above) like it doesn’t take much for secrets to start tumbling out. Uh oh.

With folky creepiness dripping from some of the later glimpses in that trailer, and all sorts of threat emanating from seemingly kindly members of the local community,Bodkinwill clearly go to some dark places.

However, it’s also obviously laced throughout with comedy, with funny actors and line deliveries aplenty, which should make for a fairly unique blend of genres that not many competing shows can offer up.

You can also clearly expect plenty of interesting takes on the true crime industry and how it interacts with victims, perpetrators and audiences.
