Add us as a preferred source on Google »Baby Reindeer, a new dark comedy thriller series, has recently landed on Netflix and has made a huge impact on viewers.
Written by, created by and starring Scottish comedian Richard Gadd, the show centres around Donny - an aspiring Scottish stand-up who moved to London to pursue his career dream.
Now in his late 20s and working a dead-end job in a pub though, he feels like a failure.
So, when an older female patron at his bar named Martha (Jessica Gunning) laughs at his jokes and shows an interest in him, he is at first pleased with the attention - endeavouring to get more positive reactions out of her.
It turns out, however, the seemingly friendly Martha has a history of stalking and winds up forming a dangerous obsession with Donny.
Adapted from Gadd's hit one-man play of the same name and based on true events that happened to the writer and performer, Baby Reindeer has found a huge fanbase after hitting Netflix.

Considering Baby Reindeer has only been around for a few weeks, it's made a humungous impact on viewers from across the globe.

With just two words, King wrote: "Holy sh*t."
