Season 2
First - IMDB please allow people to do different ratings for different seasons- especially for anthology type shows like this!
Second- I think I liked season 1 more but pretty close ratings wise.
S1 I had not listened to podcasts or anything just some general chit chat so I didn't know much. S2- I'd seen the Netflix special before.
After watching both S1 and S2 I did watch the actual Dr Death documentaries so this review is written with those contexts.
There were a few dramatized things in s2 I wasn't a fan of (namely her sneaking into the Barcelona house after the overly dramatic this propert doesn't exist and having her friend go to the door to allow her time to sneak out, which we know didn't really happy. We see from the actual videos in the car there were 3 friends and they drive near and just saw the kids). I don't think that added anything to fake that.
As much as I love MM, and I love seeing her in something and she is gorgeous- this wasn't it for her. Had I not seen the real person I would have thought she was great (so nothing on her at all) just bad casting.
Main character was pretty good casting but they never gave him that bad hair cut I saw in reality.
I did like the liberal take on the dude characters- the American - loved him in marvelous Mrs maisel, English girl was great as Ashley in revenge (I've disconcerted why she hadn't been in more since!). We know on these the there are more liberties taken with accuracy of side characters.
Overall it's obviously an attention grabbing story.
And scary. All those CVs that don't add up. Nobody ever checked?!? Hmmmm.
Overall. Very good. Some incongruities for me as far as story telling and how they cut episodes but an entertaining watch.

Great series but the REAL story is even more shocking!
Usually when watching a series or movie based on a true story the events are exaggerated to add to the drama but in my opinion this show was watered down a touch as the true story would have seemed even more far fetched if relayed in a series.
This was quite good
I didn't see whatever podcast people are referencing. I was familiar with the case from the news and watched this limited series. It was good. It drew me in, made me think, scared me....it was well done. I watched it in a day. Recommend.

It's me, the real pool guy.
Well I can definitely say that Christian Slater nailed Dr. Randall Kirby's personality. Please no offense Dr. Kirby I owe you a great debt. It was quite difficult for me to watch my surgery was quite accurate the gentleman that portrayed me in the movie did a great job I think his name was Joe I found the actor on Instagram and we communicated he asked if I looked anything like him I told him no I was a overweight middle-aged white guy we both had a good laugh. The story was extremely accurate to my recollection.
I am left with a condition called adhesive arachnoiditis it's extremely painful and gets worse as time goes on. Medical bills are never ending. The movie was great please watch the documentary.
Thanks to everyone who participated in making the film I greatly appreciate the hard work.

[8.2] Besides the editing and unneat time jumps, a superb show
A tremendous series in its own way. The incredible level of acting by the whole cast, especially by Joshua Jackson, the heavy, suspenseful and really-felt atmosphere, thrilling moments and the fitting score, make it one of a kind of a show.
