There have been a lot of great shows on the 2025 TV schedule so far, but few, if any, come close to the sheer ridiculousness of The Hunting Wives. My wife and I recently started the new Netflix series, which is being called “utterly ridiculous” by critics (and rightfully so) because we were enticed by the whole “murder mystery” element of the series, but now we’re staying for the soapy culture wars, raunchy situations, and some of the most insane characters I’ve seen on the small screen all year.
If you’ve been on the fence about starting The Hunting Wives because you think it’s just a normal Netflix drama about murder in the Lone Star State, throw those preconceptions out the window and start watching this over-the-top exploration of politics, romance, and trauma.
