I don’t get the significance of the twist at the end. So he’s a fat guy? Is there more I’m supposed to get from that other than he viewed himself as his book character?

Also, why would Goodson not have completely aired out Calderone’s dirty laundry in that interrogation room? He easily could’ve destroyed her credibility by revealing she was fukking the Captain.

Decent final twist but this was a very average show. Had a spark when it started…(don’t ask me how)

That shyt had me like

:what:

How the fukk did this bytch survive being thrown out the car? Da fukk type of gymnastics has this bytch done?

At the very least she should've had a concussion, but she stood there unfazed like an animé character.

The exact moment the show started to fall off was Freddy's interrogation. Freddy struggled to put two words together but all of a sudden he's telling allegories and talking about trauma? FOH.

I guess I’m the only one that likes the finale lol

Remember jurnee’s guy has her video leaving the house on a usb.

I also thought she put on a clinic and deserves an Emmy nom for this performance.

I didn’t mind it at all. I knew she was going to get back up lol.

A common theme for Her, Freddy, and Dave was that hate, fear, and survival was their super power. I looked at it like Dave was too hateful to just let things go, but she was just too hateful to let him kill her lol.

Her need for survival, and capacity for anger pushed her to the point of sexualizing almost killing Dave. I kind of wish she crossed him out in the woods instead of bring him back to the station.

Not just a guy, her brother. They definitely made sure the audience knew he wasn't sh!t but damn he's a dirtbag. My mind was made up when he popped up at her crib with the :krs: about her mom's release.
That storyline pissed me off.

Her family: Yeah mom tried to burn you alive when you were 12, but why you talking about old shyt :beli:

I liked it. You're not supposed to over think the little things, but wouldn't Dave just go get the box out of the crashed Explorer. I've totaled two cars it's not a secret what lot they are at. The show is full of little stupid things that didn't make sense, but getting back to his truck was the one thing that thwarted this arson mastermind.
:mjlol:

edit: Maybe the point was Dave is a retard.

That scene where she
killed that guy was fukking stupid and damn near ruined the whole show. It was an unnecessary attempt to give them something to discredit her
.

It felted like they just had to include that to make it so everything wouldn’t be wrapped up to perfectly.

Also the ending was flat, why was I supposed to care Dave was actually fat.
it was obvious he was as writing about himself and was too arrogant to think he would ever get caught.

It was ok. It started too slow and ended flat.

This show was all over the goddamned place, and not in a good way. It's based on a true story, so they could've played it straight -- and get did, at. Then each episode they went further and further into weird, surreal, unbelievable, even supernatural shyt. I thought about stopping it after 5, but I was invested.

And I've seen Taron Egerton in a lot of shyt, and thought he was a really good actor, but this was one of the worst acting performances I've ever seen in a mainstream show. Unsure how the people in charge let him do whatever the fukk he was doing.
