Worst Neighbor Ever not only received the stamp of approval from Netflix viewers, but it also garnered mostly positive responses from professional critics. Karina Adelgaard of Heaven of Horror wrote in a review of the show, “the true crime docuseries always interviews key first-hand witnesses from each case, and instead of dramatizations with actors who ‘kinda sorta’ look like the real-life people, animations are used,” adding that, “It works just as great for this one as the previous two types of installments.”
The docuseries replacing I Will Find You at the top of Netflix charts might come as an unexpected development to some subscribers, as the crime drama managed to hold onto its top spot in late June despite the live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender returning with its sophomore season
