It was so freaking good. Entertaining but in a super twisted, totally engrossing way.

Its based on actual events I guess about this abusive mom thats a caregiver for her disabled daughter but theres all sorts of messed up shit going on behind the scenes.

Amazing performance by Patricia Arquette as the crazy mom

Just read the wikipedia page for the real events and man that shit is fucked up, especially considering that, after more than a decade of intense abuse by her mother, the girl winds up in prison on top of everything else. Meanwhile wives who kill their husband in their sleep have been acquitted for murder over far lesser instances of abuse. She should have been put in a mental health facility to help her overcome that shit instead of prison.

Good ol Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy... yes, it was an excellent show. Definitely had a few WTF moments in there. I couldn't help but wonder how this went on for so long unnoticed by health care workers or doctors

But then I remembered I worked in health care and realized how easy it probably really was.
