Fool Me Once is a thriller drama that will glue you to your sofa

(all times CLT)

Fool Me Once is adapted from Harlan Coben’s book with the same title, this eight-episode thriller joins a roster of murder mysteries floating around Netflix.

Once upon a time, there was a woman called Maya (Michelle Keegan), whose husband Joe (Richard Armitage) is shot but strangely reappears. Of all places, on her daughter’s nanny cam — thank you technology. Which sets Maya (and us) out on an investigative frenzy to find out the truth.

The storyline was a US-based show but Coben believes that the show served the book justice by making it a full-fledged UK production — which follows other Coben TV series like Safe, The Stranger, and Stay Close.

While the performances are “thrilling,” the cast might not be that familiar. Richard Armitage is known for his role in The Hobbit Series and Adeel Akhtar in Murder Mystery. The rest of the cast is known mostly in the UK.

There are mixed feelings about the show. One news outlet called the show a “ backgroundbinge-watch ” while many audience members have praised the show and other news outlets called it “ highly bingeable.” Even Coben said, “ If you don’t like twists and turns, I’m not your guy.”

WHERE TO WATCH IT- You can watch Fool Me Once on Netflix.
