Mon petit renne

I have never reviewed anything before, but I needed to make an exception with this series. The characters, the actors and the storyline is by far some of the best television that I have seen in a long time. I wish I could give more details, but I have just finished my second re-run and I am still filled with a pyrrhic feeling in my stomach. Each episode is so captivatingly disturbing and yet shines a light on so many important issues faced today without perpetuating any sort of moral judgement. If you are ever going to give a show a chance, let it be this one.

Absolutely!

"Jessica" offers a tour de force in acting prowess, with both leading characters delivering performances that are nothing short of extraordinary. Each episode takes viewers on a thrilling journey, with twists and turns that keep them on the edge of their seats.

In the end. It's a series that lingers in the mind long after credits roll, leaving viewers clamoring for more. With its stellar performances, impeccable writing, and bold storytelling choices, "Jessica" stands as a shining example of what modern series can achieve. Just loved it. I hope it never ends. Netflix thanks for that.

Started this and thought it was a nice light thing to watch, especially judging by the trailer and the beginning of the first episode. It was pretty funny, very well shot, acting is great. Binged a few episodes and it seemed to get darker and darker until half way through the season and holy hell, that went a whole different way. This is an amazing show, it definitely isn't 'light watching' though. Had to switch it off and watch a few episodes of 'is it cake' just to clear our palette 😂 It's amazing but we really weren't ready for that, we really just wanted some light viewing, but it does grip you and reel you in to watch more. Probably needs a warning at the beginning because it was disturbia central up in here.

I just finished binge watching the show. It's not an easy watch. It started out a little lighter but the more it progressed the harder it was to watch. Sexual abuse, mental illness, self destruction and trauma are some of the things that you'll see in the show. It's disturbing to think this is a true story.

The acting is phenomenal! I was very impressed with it. You can feel the raw emotion and stress that is going on in the lives of those people. I just can't get past the fact that it's a true story. There's a lot of mental illness and trauma involved. Makes you feel so bad for them. Hope they're all doing better now.

Not being offensive but feel this,like his lame attempts at comedy in the series wasn't great.. Maybe if someone besides him was cast as lead,it possibly"could of"made a more compelling story.

The lead did everything it seems to bring this onto a bigger platform such as Netflix,so feel the story he claims happened was a marketing tool.

After all.. It's also based on his one man play,over his alleged stalker. Fame seeking,anyone? Maybe he is the"actual"Martha making up,what's an otherwise fantasy to a dull or awkward existence.

I get about protecting certain life aspects,but anyone could claim about circumstances to gain attention or profit.. He never provides actual IRL proof(of alleged stalker)when asked in articles his answers are wishy-washy based on this or that,etc. If anything does actually surface,can it be took now as facts or saving face?

Would think if you're a victim & although each person handles it differently,his approach seems unusual to falsely motivated & a slap to those with trauma.. Also who would fantasize,about a stalker to help with gratification? Definitely isn't someone,afraid or not problematic themselves.

Why did I mention,problematic? He didn't seem to maintain good relationships,like with Teri or Keeley only with anything unhealthy & he was aware of it but continued this pattern.. Some people believe it or not,actually thrive in this & use it for personal advantage.

Only redeemable parts basically was episode 6 while on stage & some into episode 7 at his parents,but after that not so again.. He unfortunately never matures or makes smart choices,therefore is clearly his own worst enemy.

What clinched him being a narcissist or traumatic seeker,after the show meltdown went viral he finally gets his fame & throws it away.. Why? Because it wasn't for him,was needing to make sense of Martha stuff even though it was over. Than seeks out his abuser,not for justice or reasons making sense. Bottom line: This guy needs help!

Ever wonder the full reason,on the series title? Baby Reindeer. In episode 7,as it's nearly over you do.

The cinematography & several other production aspects,felt low-quality & amateurish too.

Anyway the only person that really brought a so-called factual story to life.. Was character of Martha,otherwise it was blah.

If bored watch this limited series yet don't expect brilliance,as you might have read or been told.

Not a series to rewatch as don't like something claiming to be one thing,but smells otherwise fishy!
