Not only was it filmed here - it also features an up-and-coming Kiwi actor, 21-year-old George Ferrier.
It follows a group of teenagers who are suspects in a murder at their school.
The show originally aired on US streaming service Peacock, before it moved to Netflix several weeks ago.
"It's surreal, I mean we sort of made the show not knowing Netflix was gonna be involved," said Ferrier. "For my friends and family here in New Zealand to be able to watch it has just been incredible."
He plays the part of TJ Forrester.
