I'm giving this documentary a high rating solely because I went in believing that this could have been a case of an adult posing as a child and I came out thinking the exact opposite.

Michael Barnett was not believable in the least and did himself no favors with the show. I disliked him immediately. I feel bad for their prodigy son who really seems to have suffered some trauma but mostly I feel bad for Natalia. It's quite obvious, if you pay any amount of attention, that she was not an adult but in fact, a child. She was left to fend for herself by an uncaring and highly materialistic family. There was a lot of abuse. That was evident. How much more though? Because I have a feeling she suffered even more than we know.

I'm probably going to be the odd man out here. I absolutely loved the first 3 seasons. I initially found the Saga character difficult to watch, but as the series progressed, she easily became my favorite. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel with her having a new partner since the chemistry between her and Martin was great. Luckily, Henrik filled the shoes well. I was excited to see where things would go, but when I got to season 4, I almost bailed. I found a lot of it to be far too predictable and a letdown compared to previous seasons. That includes Sagas farewell. I get it, but I also saw it coming. I felt a bit disappointed. This show would have easily been a 9 or 10 for me if not for that. Regardless, I'm still going to miss it.
