The 20 Best Crime Series On Netflix

Crime shows on Netflix
I, for one, am so thankful that American culture has finally embraced its own love of murder. All hail crime shows on Netflix! Television about death and mystery is an unstoppable source of entertainment for all kinds of audiences. Whether it’s a basic network procedural or a British miniseries, folks can’t get enough of a good murder. A good portion of the content out there happens to be British – I’m not really sure what that says about the Brits – but the rest of the world has stepped up in recent years and put out some pretty decent shit. Perfect for a weekend binge, some familiar comfort, or simply a good scare, these are the best Netflix murder shows to keep your roommate on good behavior. After all, you clearly have experience in matters involving arsenic and knifeplay.
