A new series is coming to Netflix next month and it looks like a whole lot of fun! Maddie Phillips (Ghost Wars) and Anjelica Bette Fellini (The Gifted) star as 16-year-old fraternal twin sisters, Sterling and Blair Wesley, in Teenage Bounty Hunters. Based on the first trailer for the show, it likes like the two high schoolers will have to navigate a work-life balance between their schoolwork and their secret job taking down criminals.

Teenage Bounty Hunters was created, co-written by, and co-executive-produced by Kathleen Jordan (American Princess) and executive-produced by Orange Is the New Black and Weeds‘ Jenji Kohan and Tara Herrmann as well as Robert Sudduth (The Real O’Neals) and Blake McCormick (Mad Med).
According to the Entertainment Weekly, “the duo team up with veteran bounty hunter Bowser Jenkins (Kadeem Hardison) for an over-the-top adventure as they dive into the world of bail-skipping criminals and suburban secrets, all while trying to navigate high school drama in their buttoned-up Southern community.”
Since the trailer dropped earlier today, some people have taken to Twitter to express their interest in the new show. You can check out some tweets below:
