Maid

Margaret Qualley is riveting throughout; I've loved her several roles she's always worth watching! I didn't expect this show to be so sad yet so powerfully acted feels so genuine. Lately I've been really into Buffy the vampire slayer but I'm glad I decided to watch Maid it's so worth it. Crazy how intense everything starts out and improves as it goes on. Maid is very lovable I highly recommend it!

This show is definitely worth watching. It's a real life journey. And a powerful one.

Some critics complained that some of the decisions made by the main character are so terrible it's alienated them but if you watch this show, by the time you get to the 9th episode you will get it. I know, I did. It was only by the 8th and 9th episodes that I fully understood what Alex and women like her are going through. It's easy to judge but if you go through a horrible situation like that, you will make mistakes. It's impossible not to.

I also liked how the show depicted the other characters. Each of them were dealing with their own set of problems. The writing and acting are very good. It's very realistic and powerful. I believe that if you take this journey, you won't regret it. By the time I finished binge watching the show I got an entirely new perspective on situations I thought I understood.

Highly recommended!

I've read the reviews, the bad and the good, the bad reviews all said that the protagonist is very stupid, and makes stupid decision after another, and how that is not how life is, that is just not the case, this is exact what this story needs, because in real life, we regret decisions everyday, bad things happen, and you tell yourself: "God! How was I so stupid, why didn't I do this instead, how didn't I see that coming?" We can all relate to that feeling if it came to being betrayed, wasting money or time and especially domestic abuse. And the protagonist has that moment, when she falls back with her abuser, and she realized it was a bad decision, she breaks down and says: how could I be so stupid?

One of the best shows I've seen in a long time. Beautifully written and amazing how it pulls on your heart strings. And all the drama felt very real and believable. So all in all, amazing show.

8/10: amazing.

A strong, but above all honest and courageously told story about a life that exists so often, but from which one so often turns a blind eye. The young leading actress plays her role outstandingly. And believable. Netflix ventured into a subject that was certainly not easy to implement, but it proves what strength and diversity they are capable of. Outstanding, in your face.
