Binged the whole series this weekend.  It really kept my interest.

I finished it up last night.  Good movie. Something a little different.

Never knew having a pottery show could bring in so much money. Smiley Happy

@Shanus as someone else stated she was on White Lotus which by the way is coming back for season 2 possibly after next week's season finale of House of the Dragon. She was also in the movie American Pie and was on the tv series 2 Broke Girls, she played the ditzy upstairs neighbor.

I enjoyed it but a great deal of it was fiction. I didn't know the real story behind it so it kept me on the edge of my seat. Well worth watching and the cast was wonderful.

We watched it this weekend.  Parts were absolutely terrifying.

 

I don't know how they stayed in that house so long.  I wouldn't have made it one night.  


@Bri369  The real family never moved in. The letters started arriving while they were doing some renovating prior to living there. When the watcher started mentioning the kids the parents decided they couldn't jeopardize their safety.

I was looking forward to this series as I had read the story about the real family and house. I was wondering how the Netflix series would unfold as there was no person discovered who wrote the letters. The family never lived in the home, they rented it, then sold it a few years later as a loss. 

 

This series started out good, then JMO went of the rails with all of the possible suspects and crazy neighbors. The episode where we first see John Graf (based on the John List story) is when I started to lose interest. 

 

I get it is a Ryan Murphy series and he is creative. But I found it was all over the place. 

 

I did finish the series and at the end did not love it or hate it. I just do not think it lived up to all of the hype. Again JMO.
