Painkiller is the kind of crime drama that keeps you guessing. It's currently available in Australia on Netflix, and in the US on Netflix, so there's no reason to keep putting it off. A 7/10 rating means the audience agrees.
Originally commissioned by Netflix, Painkiller quickly became exactly the kind of show that viewers rearrange their evenings for. The causes and consequences of America's opioid epidemic unfold in this drama following its perpetrators, victims and an investigator seeking the truth. It aired in 2023.
Perfect for viewers who think they've already seen all the great crime dramas. Painkiller is the one that tends to prove them wrong.
