Netflix are on a roll at the minute. In the last few weeks the streaming site have gifted us with new episodes of the likes of Tiger King, Money Heist, Sunderland Till I Die, and Ozark, helping to keep us occupied during the quarantine.
The way things are at the minute, many of us are binging these new seasons in a day or two. Simply put, we need all the new content we can get.
Enter Outer Banks.
Released on Netflix yesterday, it is already proving to be a huge hit. Described on IMDB as a story about a 'group of teenagers from the wrong side of the tracks stumble upon a treasure map that unearths a long buried secret', it looks like it could be a good watch.
In the trailer below you see it has all the elements you would expect from a show that looks like it should have been a mid-00s teen drama.

This looks to have all the potential of a series that you know is is bit crap, but you get hooked anyway.
Many people found themselves locked in right from the off.

Folks. FOLKS. #OuterBanks on Netflix is INCREDIBLE. No joke. It's The OC meets Goonies, as a bunch of teens hunt for treasure on an island split between the haves and the have nots. The cast is instantly iconic, the direction/writing are great... This is your new favorite show.

We can fight this all you want, but we all know that we're all going to end up watching this eventually.
We may as well just start now and get in early on the inevitable meme action.
