[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just finished it.  I thought it was compelling enough to watch all 9 episodes, but hated the tone in the last 2 episodes.  [b]Why do all the likable characters (Neff, her lawyer, Anna Chlumsky, Kacy) end up in her corner?[/b]  She was horrible to them - repeatedly verbally abusive - and of course a verified scam artist. I thought it was just poor storytelling.  Your supposed to sympathize with Anna because the likeable characters do? I saw nothing redeeming about Anna and was just confused by the end.  I transitioned from liking the beginning episodes to hating it by the end.[/quote]

I have yet to watch the last episode, but the bolded is a central theme - why do any of these people believe Anna or like Anna? Go back earlier in this thread and witness the posts deriding Rachel and even one saying they had more respect for Anna. When by pretty much all accounts Anna was the one offering to pay for the meals, the trips, the spa days, etc. - things that Anna well knew Neff, Rchael, and even Kacy couldn't afford

Agree that Episode 8 was just strange. Vivian's obsession with imagining Anna's early years as something much different then they actually were was bizarre. I felt like they really lost the thread between real and a good story.
