Maid (2021)
9/10
Stayed up all night!
2 October 2021
With every step of Alex's struggle, I couldn't stop watching this series. Compelled to see her be treated better. Better by her family, the system and people in general.

I haven't stayed up all night watching a series for decades, and I'm a Binge-aholic! I wish I read the book first tbh.

Andie Macdowell, you have always been a superstar, but you working this role has launched you into the stratosphere! Bravo.

Domestic abuse, poverty, untreated mental illness - its a parasite on humanity. Maid takes you directly down the path and I thank all the people behind this story. You have created an evoking story telling tapestry that hopefully creates change.

Hopefully after people watch Maid, the next time they have the opportunity, they realise kindness and compassion can costs nothing. And if you come from privilege, open your eyes and help your fellow man.

Atypical (2017–2021)
7/10
Long time Atypical fan, but the mothers character is nauseating
10 July 2021
Casting is great, entertaining and quirky, love all the characters. Atypical is light and bright and I'm grateful that it raises awareness for ASD individuals...

But the mother, she is overbearing, neurotic and a ball and chain when it comes to parenting. I'm a parent to an ASD child and this character smothers both children, painfully melding in every aspect of their lives. If given the green light she would still be wiping their bottoms.

Please, can the mum go on a yoga retreat and never return.
