Feels like a nasty dig against Gabby Petito
I volunteer for the Gabby Petito Foundation and we are all for more focus on missing persons, but this show just feels nasty. It feels like someone got mad that Gabby was getting so much media attention because "missing white girl" and made a show based on that.
The vibe of this show feels nasty. I only watched the pilot so I don't know about other episodes, but it felt personal, this show's message.
Does it get better in later episodes? I hope so. We are well aware Gabby got the attention she got in large part because of how she looked. We want everyone to get that same attention.
Also the protagonist being named Gabi? C'mon.
Lastly, why aren't there missing person posters shown in the beginning & end of the show? Perfect oppurtunity.
The Gabby Petito Story (2022)
(Friend of the family) Just utterly disgusting
Only two things you need to know:
-They never asked the family for permission (because they knew they'd say no). They even we
-not a dime of revenue from this went to the Gabby Petito Foundation.
No one in the family watched it.
This isn't a respectful adaptation or anything like that, this is a money grab. It's a reenactment of the public perception of Gabby's journey, down to the clothing and locations and casting lookalikes for her family.
I don't know for sure what Gabby would think of this movie, but I know she would resent the pain it caused her family and be angry at the studio who greenlit this.

Stupid funny
I have watched this show more times than I can remember. It's my go to show for silly parody slapstick funny.
