Obsession: Dark Desires

Look, I think the show is great, and it's amazing to hear these survivors tell their own stories. That takes guts. Seriously, though - where are they interviewing these poor people? In a run-down, moldy, broken down building that looks worse than a third world prison? Please, host these survivors in a nicer location!

Saw season 2 of this show on Netflix- All stories have the same dramatic flow. A guy who is persistent and stalky and the girl who tries to get a restraining order and eventually the guy attempts murder. Don't understand the need for so many episodes with exactly or largely the same story line. Once you get the concept, it's just a difference of character and places. That's it. Literally.

Interesting concept initially but very drawn out. A story that should take twenty minutes to tell is over that twice that due to lots of repetition. Additionally, each of the episodes pretty much tracks the same as the others. It gets old pretty quickly.

I really enjoyed the storytelling of this show. But, it was VERY distracting how they were pretending to be American but very clearly seemed to have Irish or UK accents in the re-enactments. The scenery was very clearly not American (electrical prongs had wrong # of holes, wrong style for Americans, very clearly UK style). The whole time I was distracted by their bad American accents that were very clearly actors pretending to be American. I wish the producers would make this in the U.S. Other than that, the real victim testimony was great and storytelling was great. Just need believable accents to not be constantly distracted by how this must be some bizarre UK actor guild producing this. Their accents are not good and took me out of the experience.

Each episode really kept my attention, and I am grateful for the victims deciding to share their stories.

Not so "spoiler" spoilers: According to each episode, the cops are no help at all, and, when your stalker is plotting against you, they will be sweating profusely.

These episodes are definitely worth watching and will possibly contribute in your loss of faith in humanity, but may help you see the red flags the next time someone comes up behind you and sniffs the back of your neck.
