Netflix has a new favorite, and it's not a comedy or a romance. It's a true-crime series called The Monster of Florence.

This show is about a real-life serial killer who terrorized Italy in the 1970s and 1980s. It's so popular that it's beating out other big shows like Nobody Wants This and Monster: The Ed Gein Story.

The Numbers Don't Lie

  • Top 10 in 90 countries - A big deal!
  • Better reviews than Monster: The Ed Gein Story
  • 60% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes
  • Monster: The Ed Gein Story has a rotten 21%

The Mystery

The show is about a killer who targeted young couples, much like the Zodiac Killer in the U.S. The identity of the Monster of Florence is still a mystery. This adds to the intrigue and keeps viewers hooked.

The Competition

  • Released on October 22, just a day before Nobody Wants This season 2
  • Nobody Wants This is #1 in the U.S.
  • The Monster of Florence is close behind at #4

But the competition is heating up. The Witcher season 4 is coming out on October 30. It might give both shows a run for their money.
