With January 2021, NBC Universal's true-crime focused network, Oxygen, will be filling its schedule with countless new specials and series. With a slew of original content set to air, one docuseries may be of particular interest.

Over the past few years, the "Florida Man" has been referred to in headlines about various crimes. Like the time a Florida man called the police after a strip club joint refused to allow his kitten inside, or when a Florida man reportedly chewed off another man's face.
