My Crazy Ex

It's ridiculous y'all! Just enough to be on the cusp of wanting to both continue to watch this train wreck unfold and wanting to turn it off immediately. They also feature two different actors per role; one actor does the (pitiful) re-enactments and the other does the "confessional" interview/narrative part. Each so obviously scripted and poorly written. Just furthers my suspicions regarding the "true crime" claim...just how much of this is NOT fictionalized?!

At first I was really leaning toward it just being terrible acting but I've now come to realize that whoever scripted this must have gotten it mixed up with a project for a musical they're working on- it absolutely SCREAMS Broadway! My fav thus far?

• S4E q1- a younger male says to his pseudo-girlfriend/coworker: "I'm sorry. I can be a real bozo sometimes".

Yes, seriously. I don't know how the actors are able to deliver this nonsense. It's like...I have a serious case of secondhand embarrassment going on here. I have to look away out of respect! Ive definitely heard some pretty outrageous lines watching this "true crime" series, but when the above quoted was executed, an intermission became necessary...when you have to take a break at 7 minutes into an episode, gotta be some sort of red flag being blatantly. So in order to still be somewhat productive with my self-imposed break, I immediately paused it to come here to make fu...I mean to share its wonders with everyone via review.

Enjoy! (But take frequent timeouts for your own well being).Hey

I can only imagine the people that hate this show watched it in hopes of seeing decapitated bodies at the bottoms of rivers .

This is light hearted, sincere and has a good sense of humor..I love it!!

This show is terribly fake and pretends to be a reality show. If you need proof just look at the cast credits. I watched half an episode and I feel like I wasted way too much time on this dishonest garbage.

Are the stories real? Probably not. But it doesn't take away from the entertainment value of the show. The stories are amazing, outlandish, and sometimes cringey. But they are hilarious. My go to cheesy-bad-guilty-pleasure show. Highly recommend for a girls night, drinking game, or just general binge

It's obvious that my crazy ex isn't exactly on the level however what " reality" show is? While it can be a bit cheesy it is a lighthearted sometimes a bit R rated look at the red flags that we refuse to acknowledge when starting a new relationship. Wish this show was on about 20 years ago maybe i wouldn't have been blinded by the lust like some of the crazies depicted on this show.
