    Honest as possible

    Wendy shared her soul with this. I genuinely felt she was as honest with the audience as she is with herself. Great documentary. I have a lot more admiration for her.

    I would have liked to hear more about the early period of her show, but that's my only complaint.

    New fan

    I'm just now finishing this series.

    I wasn't really aware of her body of work, except maybe her Joan Rivers-esque style of entertainment.

    I now wish I could meet her and give her a warm hug. She's been used and abused, like many of us, but did it in the public eye.

    This was hard to watch and so, so brave.

    If you are a woman, this will speak to you. Forget about the fame and fortune for a minute. No matter our station in life, most, if not all of us can recall bits and pieces of her story in our own story.

    Insecurities about our beauty, our bodies, relationships, parenthood all linger in our hearts and minds if we came up in the last couple thousand years.

    Wendy, darling, I got you. I bet I'm far from alone.

    I've walked a mile in your magnificent shoes, but not on a public stage.

    I bid you nothing but peace.

    In health, Nurse Robin.

    Was candid

    She really just lets loose with minimal make up and LOTS of crying. I think that was really candid of her. I just wish she addressed the 2020 alleged hospitalization that Black Lives Matter news over shadowed.

    Nothing is her fault!

    How does a person say, they don't regret anything bc it's all made them the person they are and then turn around and say EVERYTHING is someone else's fault.

    SMH, WHAT A MESS is very accurate!
