BOO'S REVIEWS: YOU CAN'T HANDLE BABY REINDEER [REACTION] 

the thing about abuse is that if you can't cope with the pain of your abuse by truly improving yourself and moving on, the easiest and quickest fix for your pain is to pretend everything is okay and try to forgive your abuser. i think that's why donnie returned to his abuser in the end, because he never really dealt with the shame of his s*xual abuse

This popped up randomly on my home page and I watched the whole thing! The way you do reviews is amazing and you deserve more recognition on here! I binged watched the whole series after watching your video. You do a fantastic job at intriguing the viewer without revealing too much about the source material!

Letterbox review: (i wanna know if anyone feels the same) I rewatched this twice. I was so immersed. I could relate to the main character in a way I've never felt before. It's those feelings you can't quite put into words but are so human it hurts. The male experience and variability are needed more within the film space. I haven't heard a lot of stories of male exploitation other than Terry Crews. He is my reindeer; something you don't see often but when you do, it connects you with nature and the world. You know millions of people have done and felt the same way you do but to see it fully formed. Beginning to end. You know it's human... you finally know... I've been through that same trauma and self-destructive behavior. This isnt a story of redemption but of real destruction that so many victims go through. You're conditioned to only need and want that one thing. Even if you self aware, you can't stop the cycle

When SHOWGIRLS is the less s*xually confusing of two choices, you KNOW you're watching something f'ed up 😳😳😳😳

Thank you for reviewing this and treating it with sensitivity. I was thinking about signing up for Netflix to watch, but maybe not yet. I think it's maybe a little too much for me to handle at the moment. The trauma experienced and feeling complicit in it are themes that I don't have the bandwidth to sit with and deal with yet. I'm so glad that you pointed out that that people are complicated and can be both/and instead of either/or. I am glad that you described the series so well. Though I won't be watching it soon, I think, by the way you describe it, the series offers opportunities to discuss how trauma influences behaviors so deeply.

YOU KNOW KEN BONE????! Wow, that was really such a snapshot in time. Hope he's doing well and his life has gone back to normal these days.

I saw your review in my thumbnails and I knew I had to watch this series first. Binged it in one night, and all I'm thinking at the end is, "Man, how is Boo going to review this in her signature style"? Appreciate you dropping the act for a bit to give this series the recognition it deserves.

I loved this review. I felt like I was sitting with a friend! Cant wait to see more, new sub!

Hi just found your channel, i really like the way you reviewed it with empathy and a deeper understanding to both characters

this is a great video :) keep up the good work! i'm sure more people will be finding your channel. this was a really nice watch.

Yay🎉 because I really didn’t want to watch it when I was hearing how he wasn’t fully forthcoming about not setting clear boundaries. Love to see what you think ☺️

this is SUCH a good review !! cannot believe i found u at such a low subscriber count...ur goin places

Hey girl hey! I’m just popping in to say Hi 👋. I haven’t watched it yet, 5 minutes into your review I decided not to watch anymore because I don’t want to spoil it for myself. It sounds soooo intense. I will be back! 🥰

Good review boo! What I found most frustrating was his going along with it all and taking ages to report it. And just his general decision making. There’s been a real life ‘Martha’ hunt and apparently she’s going live on tv tomorrow and suing him 🤣 but what I’ve found weirder is no one seemed to want to track ‘Darren’ down. It’s sad how he gets totally obsessed at the end trying to find the reasons why. And the ending comes full circle. It makes you wonder if he’s going to start stalking now lol!

Hi I’m new a boo virgin. Love your analysis. And i actually think your great to. Screw the trolls they’re not capable of getting a hobby. Kudos from England. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ❤Thank you 😊

Just to say Hi - I enjoyed your review. Thanks!

I just found you and I love you. Share this tuber!!

I didn't watch this lmfao but I can't wait to hear your review

Great review of the series... 🎉I also agree with the part about oeople in general and you sharing about your friend Bone.. Since you filmed this there has been a lot resurfacing about it not being a true story, i wish it was presented more as storytelling, inspired by... As a content creator i had a hard core stalker for years (hes still active but underground), it was brutal so it was hard and relateable to watch.. however, when i was openly making content and writting about it i made sure to keep to the facts. To keep it true and not fictional. That is my only issue with this show, eventho it was brilliantly made it shouldn't ruin real lives. If people put "This is a true story" before every episode it is hard to excuse things not being true, i wouldn't want someone making a movie about me that is not true and lying that it is true, projecting onto me and damaging my life. I think noone wants that. Thank you for the review 🦋

I’m going to make a broad judgement. I think you are lovely. … I also loved your analysis of BR. I hope it allows people to understand why some people who have experienced trauma then go onto make terrible choices in life and continue the abuse by abusing themselves. I very nearly stopped watching it as I just couldn’t bear watching someone over and over seemingly have no insight whatsoever as to how he encouraged his stalker, how utterly awful he was a comedian and how obvious it was to me that Darrien was a sleeve bag on first meeting. But there is a line where he says he knew what he was doing to himself after the sexual abuse. Classic trauma bonding off which very few understand is a thing. Strange timing too with the Diddy allegations and what people will do for fame, money or just recognition. A lesson in not judging people unless you have walked in their shoes. Thank you for your channel.

I stopped watching because I felt horrible, before even knowing it happened to him 😕 i felt so bad watching.

There are many errors in this 'true story'. She has never been to prison, he didn't break down on stage, no evidence that he assaulted his ex gf, ex trans gf, got his mum and dad involved. Also Gadd made it easy to identify the real Martha (Fiona Harvey) and the male rapist. Also Fiona looks similar to Martha but was much more attractive 12 years ago than was portrayed (certainly not overtly obese). Story may be broadly true, but this is his version. Later he has said that this is all 'emotionally' true. ie not factually true. Andrew O'Connor needs to face charges and Richard Gadd needs to tell us which parts in the series are factually incorrect. Fiona is a compulsive pathological liar, so she is not a reliable source.
