Netflix

Baby Reindeer
Richard Gadd‘s acclaimed Netflix hit series “Baby Reindeer” will compete in the Limited Series categories for this year’s Primetime Emmy Awards. The series has overtaken “Shogun” and “X-Men ’97” as the best reviewed TV series of 2024 so far on Metacritic.

The seven-episode series starts as a lightly fictionalized account of Gadd’s own experience with a stalker who sent him over 40,000 emails, hundreds of tweets, letters and voicemails. It ultimately forces him to face a dark, buried trauma. [Source: TV Line]
