What I liked

The specificity, the detail, the minutia. It was so precise, laser-focused. And it is presented with such heart and openness, it almost opens a doorway into the mind of a stalker and builds empathy for them in a strange way?? Even almost a week later, I am still running over moments in this show that make me question the nature of its development, because it’s so well-conceived it almost feels like it has to be real. IS IT!? For what is in essence a storytelling show, it is GRIPPING. Even reflecting on it after all this time I am uneasy and exhilarated.

What I didn't like

It ran a little long based on the listed time. Clearly Katheryn was aware of this, but was so committed to the contents of the show that she simply warned the audience. A bold choice, and frankly, I was so locked in I wasn’t about to leave. I’m not even sure I’d call this a complaint. It almost felt like an extension of the show, which I clearly loved.

My overall impression

This show fascinated me! It made me feel uncomfortable, it made me lean in, it made me realize for a moment that my own fascination with this character at times made me feel like the voyeur. So beautifully crafted and the level of detail, enthusiasm, and charisma pulls you in. It’s so good, I can’t tell if this is fiction or non-fiction, and Katheryn won me over so thoroughly that I didn’t really care which one it was.
