@cutecruel "Martha" has been to the papers about the show, as apparently she was misrepresented as she didn't do jail time, and so the author is now facing some issues. She's going to be on the Piers Morgan show tomorrow! https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/martha-scott-baby-reindeer-piers-morgan-richard-gadd-b2541628.html

I went into Baby Reindeer not knowing anything except it was about a guy who has a stalker. It was an emotionally challenging watch. I feel like the audience was supposed to sympathize with Martha but I couldn't. She was just too unhinged.
For people who don't like the show, I would give it to episode 4, when the reason Donny is making poor decisions becomes clear by this episode.
I wish they'd stop advertising shows like this as 'dark comedies' because I bet a lot of people aren't prepared for how dark it will actually be. Also, Baby Reindeer is not a documentary! This is a work of fiction based on real events! To what degree? We don't know. We don't actually know what really happened, that's between the author and Martha.
