Apparently, there is a new binge-worthy sensation on Netflix that viewers find โoutrageousโ yet โso juicy it hurts.โ
The eight-part series The Hunting Wives depicts Sophie, played by Brittany Snow, who moves fromย Bostonย to the fictional town of Maple Brook in East Texas with her family looking for a fresh start. There, sheโs pulled into the world of a mysterious socialite and her group of wealthy friends.
Full of unexpected twists, the enchanting thriller offers a world of deadly secretsโand after a body is discovered, the newcomer is warned she has โno idea what these people are capable of.โ
The rest of the cast members include Malin ร kerman, Dermot Mulroney, Chrissy Metz and Katie Lowes.
It didnโt take long before the series reached the streaming platformโs Top 10 charts and received a nearly perfect score of 80% from critics on Rotten Tomatoes.
โTalk about a plot twist! I love when I think I have a show figured out and it throws me for a loop,โ one person commented. โMind-blowing. Twists. Texas. 10/10,โ another added.
Some, however, found the plot to be rather vulgar, with one person writing, โVulgar viewing. I couldnโt make it past the first 20 minutes of the first episode.โ Another added: โIn those 20 minutes a woman uses paper towels as a maxi pad, and makes eye contact with a young man while he is m**turbating in front of his girlfriend. Gross.โ
Although the series has stirred controversy, creator Rebecca Cutter isnโt backing down.
โItโs so fun, and juicy and s**y. Everyone is behaving so badly,โ she told the New York Post. โI wanted to do an exploration of women behaving badly, unapologetic s**ual conquest running rampant, and just something fun.
โI think thereโs a fantasy of freedom or power that maybe we donโt feel so much as middle-aged women.โ
Cutter added: โI just think TV has evolved.
โItโs rare. I also think itโs real. I have single friends [who are] women of a certain ageโฆ young men always are interested in themโฆ that is a very real thing. And so, I think that thatโs cool to show.โ
The series is so gripping, the fans are praying for a second season.
The Hunting Wives is available to stream on Netflix now.
