Soulmates is the kind of crime drama that keeps you guessing. It is currently available in Australia on AMC+ and Hoopla, and in the US on Netflix and AMC Plus Apple TV Channel , so there is no reason to keep putting it off. A 6/10 rating means the audience agrees — and those who disagree tend to be in a clear minority. The production does not waste your time: every episode earns its place in the run, and the pacing is calibrated to keep you watching rather than checking how much time is left. The run length is exactly right for the story being told. The ensemble approach gives the writing room to develop characters beyond a single lead. Start it tonight and see for yourself why the ratings are where they are.

Part of the current wave of streaming-era originals, Soulmates follows a path that stands out in a crowded field. Fifteen years into the future, science has made a discovery that changes the lives of everyone on the planet – a test that unequivocally tells you who your soulmate is. It aired in 2020. What distinguishes the best crime dramas from the rest is whether the character work can carry episodes where the mystery takes a breath — Soulmates passes that test consistently.

Perfect for viewers who think they have already seen all the great crime dramas. Soulmates is the one that tends to prove them wrong. The writing earns its twists rather than manufacturing them, and the result is a show where the resolution feels inevitable rather than arbitrary. Fans of Monsterland will recognise the tonal balance between tension and character work. The complete run is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. If you are going to commit to one procedural this month, make it this one.
