It's not a show, it's a movie, but I saw a lot of similarities with Blonde, which I hated (even though the book it is based on is amazing).


Er no, it is a multi episode TV SHOW on Netflix moron


Er, no. It is a film. The actress who played Marilyn Monroe was even nominated for an Academy Award.

Moron.


What are you talking about. Have you seen the thread title? BABY REINDEER. A TV SHOW.


Yes, I know that Baby Reindeer is a tv show, ffs. I'm watching it right now. Someone asked about similarly dark themed tv shows and I think Blonde is similar in tone, but it isn't a tv show, it is a film. Which is what that first post referencing Blonde said. You have really poor reading comprehension.


You're off topic.

Why all these failure to launch characters?


Good question. Boring. Messed up lives. Fallen off the turnip truck.

Anyway, now the stalker "Martha" is speaking speaks out, after she has been outed.

I think the whole situation is just sad and depressing overall. I miss aspirational tv too

I'm not sure how to explain it but it was over the top, kind of cartoonish instead if telling a straight story, which I think would have been more powerful.


I read in one review that they chose this tone to be similar to that of a horror film.

Happy aspirational movies and series are few and far in between nowadays. Too much self loathing and politics today.
