Toxic

Wow, thank you for exposing the system and what the survivors of abuse go through. I thought I was just slipping through the cracks in the system, but this story is so similar to mine and I am starting to realize it is the SYSTEM that allows it. You are brave, you are bold and you are making a difference. Thank you.

People, pay attention. These crazy people exist and they are not rare unicorns. They are master manipulators. The courts and systems allow it and know EXACTLY what is happening. Don' t give up, you are amazing and will overcome, you will become stronger. Your experience will encourage others!!!!!!

The 1st 4 episodes were intriguing and fairly solid, with not too much over dramatized story telling. IMO the last 2 cliff Hanging episodes may have put a nail in the coffin of any possible return for this series. What could have been sumerized in a half an episode and split with another story was beaten like a dead horse for 5 times the attention that story deserved. I feel if it stayed with the original tragectory we'd have a season 2, unfortunately watching paint dry during episode 5 and 6 most likely means we won't see this beautiful woman return for a sophomore season. Ashame I was getting into the grove of watching this weekly at the start.

Some of the stories have already been covered by numerous crime shows; better crime shows. While I feel for the victims and their families, I don't know why they'd want to be interviewed by Elizabeth. She looks like she's bored out of her mind and falling asleep. Every shot has her nearly closing her eyes and she's so disengaged. She was horrible to her cast members on Grand Caymen. I feel like her true personality came out there, so I'm not sure why I bothered starting this series. I like true crime, but Elizabeth's lack of journalistic ability really shines through. No, I'm not an Armie fan, so it has nothing to do with her personal life/trauma/drama, etc.

I love this show. It's phenomenal and relevant! Sadly, the very reasons why this show was created is why there are any negative reviews at all. I applaud Elizabeth and her efforts. I believe that Elizabeth is being targeted much like the people she is defending, making the content all the more believable and understood. It takes courage to be a woman on the fighting side of injustice and I look forward to supporting the show in any way I can. Let's educate ourselves and become better advocates. Hopefully, justice comes a bit swifter with renewed awareness around the topics of harassment and violence.

I consume a lot of this type of show and this one is terrible. I feel bad for the victims that get to sit there and hear the host plug her own experience into THEIR story-repeatedly...we get it lady, you went through some stuff...is the show about you, episode after episode, or what?...the pacing is weird, the host is off-putting and attention-sucking, and the actual depth of anything is really lacking...you will love this if you like watching "unscripted" reality shows but move on if you are looking for something deeper or more interesting than that...I'm really not sure what they were hoping for with this format...

EDIT-To be clear, my review is for a tv show and in no way can or should speak to the validity of a victims experience...it is bonkers to think someone would review bomb this trash because they support an abuser. Again, my biggest issue is that the trauma of the host is kept in focus in this show and that takes the attention off of OTHER victims...
