Netflix viewers admit they didn't see 'surprising' Fool Me Once plot twist coming

Netflix viewers are raving about the plot twist in new thriller Fool Me Once, though luckily they're not spilling the beans and spoiling what it is.

The show just released on the streaming service and there are plenty already raving on social media about how good it is, and how they absolutely didn't see the twist in the tale coming.

For a bit of basic information on the show, Fool Me Once follows the story of Maya Stern (Michelle Keegan) as she tries to come to terms with the murder of her husband Joe (Richard Armitage).

With her husband dead and a young child to look after, Maya decides to get a nanny-cam for her house so she can keep an eye on her daughter.

However, things take a turn for the weird when she sees her dead husband in the footage and suddenly starts seeing him everywhere.

Also starring Joanna Lumley as Joe's mother Judith and Adeel Akhtar as the detective leading the investigation into his murder, it's quite the premise to kick off eight episodes worth of drama.

Of course, that's not all there is to Fool Me Once and those who've binge-watched the drama since it released have been telling people they'll never guess how it all goes down in the end.

One viewer praised the show for having a 'surprising twist' and said they really enjoyed the Netflix show overall.

Another wrote 'THE PLOT TWIST!!!!!!! OH MY GOD', and with that number of exclamation marks you know that whatever they saw absolutely knocked their socks off.

More chimed in to say Fool Me Once was 'up there with the best series I've ever watched' and to praise the show's major plot twist as something that took them totally by surprise.

My advice to you would be to not go seeking out any spoilers, give the show a go and wait for this big plot twist people who've seen it are raving about to hit you and see what you make of it.

If you've already seen Fool Me Once and want to see more of the same then writer Harlan Coben has more shows on Netflix for you to watch.

The Stranger, Stay Close and Safe are all also available on the streaming service and ought to scratch that itch you might have developed for another Netflix thriller after watching Fool Me Once.

Fool Me Once is available to watch now on Netflix.
