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.
I love this show. It caught me completely by surprise. It's never predictable and always feels genuine, authentic. The writer finds a beautiful line - never fully glorifying or demonizing anyone. Everyone has a heart. Everyone has a story.
With every step of Alex's struggle, I couldn't stop watching this series. Compelled to see her be treated better. Better by her family, the system and people in general.
I haven't stayed up all night watching a series for decades, and I'm a Binge-aholic! I wish I read the book first tbh.
Andie Macdowell, you have always been a superstar, but you working this role has launched you into the stratosphere! Bravo.
Domestic abuse, poverty, untreated mental illness - its a parasite on humanity. Maid takes you directly down the path and I thank all the people behind this story. You have created an evoking story telling tapestry that hopefully creates change.
Hopefully after people watch Maid, the next time they have the opportunity, they realise kindness and compassion can costs nothing. And if you come from privilege, open your eyes and help your fellow man.

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.

This series shows the reality of being in poverty and how generational trauma is past on. If people don't deal with mental difficulties, bad habits and do nothing to help themselves it always affects their children. I really felt for Alex and her struggles for navigating her way out of a situation that wasn't great for her.
