Couldn't find this in search.. but I watched about 10 minutes of Painkiller on Netflix and turned it off, the scene where the woman wouldn't sit in the same seat as Sackler was the turning point.

.. turns out the story about the Oxycontin opioid epidemic was already told by Hulu a year or two earlier.. but in a far better manner in every way. So I started watching Dopesick (on Disney+ in NZ) and man its good. Stellar cast; Michael Keaten, Michael Stuhlbarg, Will Poulter, Peter Saarsgaard, John Hoogenakker. Amazing soundtrack w/ Johnny Cash, Radiohead, Rage against the Machine etc.

Subject is very dark however, Chernobyl-esque. But fantastic series so far (not binging, watching one a night).
