Toxic

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.

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.

Before starting this show I had no idea who Elizabeth Chambers was. Immediately upon starting the first episode I knew this was really about her and not the people whose stories she was supposed to be sharing. Instead, we get to see her sitting on a couch with a full frozen face of makeup posing like she's in some kind of reality tv show. Victims are sharing their stories and the camera cuts to her literally just shaking her head. If you want to be on tv that's fine but don't do it under the guise of helping people. She truly seems like a vapid narcissist and these victims and their stories deserve so much better.

The strength she's taken to investigate and honor these women who have had horrible endings and with the purest intentions of love when experiencing betrayal and domestic violence herself is very brave. She is smart and beautiful and I disagree with the negative tones. She could use her fame in so many ways and she chose to be brave and stand up for women to hurt tThe people that are asking about her story and saying she should have to do an episode have probably never been through that level of abuse who knows if we support her telling other stories later she might feel safe to do the same. Thank you.

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...
