Baby reindeer was brutal, triggering, uncomfortable, honest and beautiful. One of the best portrayals of someone with sexual trauma I've ever seen on TV.

I do genuinely love the pilot of Supernatural because like ok first of all here is Sam's dead blonde mom (dressed in white) who gets fridged so hard that her personhood is eaten up by her victimhood and her soul is just used as an engine to generate Righteous Man Pain and Violence. Then Sam and Dean have to go kill a ghost called the WOMAN IN WHITE by, and I cannot stress this enough, TAKING HER HOME, putting her back inside the ruination of her traditional domestic environment to face her furious murdered children, closing the circle of righteous violence which ofc can only occur inside the Home. And then Sam's blonde gf is fridged in the exact same way as his mom (putting Sam in the exact same position as his father whom he loathes) AND SHE'S WEARING WHITE. Jess was not wearing white when she went to bed but she is now which means the demon literally stripped her and redressed her in Sam's mother's clothes. "In the end, all girls are like the rose bride."

Gwen had to say “will you adopt me” to Jessica Drew when they first met because any other dialogue option would have had Gwen being Extremely Gay at her and they could only get away with so much queercoding

Finished watching Netflix's BABY REINDEER in one go.
This show.
Not to trivialize it This "show" is actually seven episodes of an artist who flays himself open to examine the very real, extremely harrowing trauma of his past. Based on the award winning one-man play of the same name,
BABY REINDEER presents actor/comedian Richard Gadd's stalking journey to television. Playing a version of himself, Gadd stars as struggling comic by night/bartender by day Donny Dunn who becomes an object of obsession by customer Martha (Jessica Gunning) after her performs a kind gesture for her.
People are comparing it to HBO's Michaela Coel created I MAY DESTROY YOU, but to me the only similarity is that both shows - both created from the personal experiences of their creators - branch off into more than what the initial subject seems to be. BABY REINDEER deeply explores trauma and the guilt/shame/self-recrimination and overall destruction it can cause.
It's gut-wrenching, but a vital piece of work.
