A very good show. I would give it a 10 if they left out the homosexual garbage.

very well written and very good acting Michael Keaton and Kaitlyn Dever are fantastic all around just a great show about a subject that needed some exposure i never knew so many people got addicted to this drug so easily the company and executives who pushed it should pay dearly

still can't believe it's a real story for a company that still selling drugs!

For me this is the winner for this year's Golden Globes, a series that was not heard at all, It has not the glamour of squidgame or 100.000.000 people saw it, it is a marvellous diamond.

After the excellent Dr. Death, a corresponding theme series that is simply a masterpiece. You do not know what to praise first, the incredible script, the director tricks with the back and forth and where you are that now we saw this and then takes you even further back to show you how he reached in this part of the story! I do not live in the US so i don't know the actual impact and valid facts only what i've seen from movies/shows about OxyContin but the presentation was amazing.

Special mention to Kaitlyn Dever who since she left that miserable politicised comedy she was playing and after the amazing Unbelievable, she now gives another excellent dramatic performance.

This is a MUST see.

A really solid, impeccably made show, with great acting and a good writing. All the cliches of the "true story" genre are there, but in a good way.

10 out of 10 for me brilliant show

An absolutely superb show. Tense, well written and so well acted. What a show!!

I love Michael Keaton, bravo.

[Disney+] Despite a complex narrative, mixing times and perspectives of different characters affected differently by the opioid crisis, the episodes unfold smoothly. The story is about, mainly, a deeply corrupt society, in which it is easier to buy those responsible for control measures than to adapt to them. And it supports the representation of pharmaceutical companies as the new drug dealers.

First episode pretty good.. second even better...

How did Big Pharma allow this show to be made/shown?

Loving this show. Michael Keaton is amazing in this show. DO RECOMMEND

Superb acting, directing and production on this miniseries. A very adult interesting topic too. Very recommended overall. My woke-meter showed really high levels at times ("diverse" characters for the sake of representation, Rosario Dawson's character), but it was not enough to distract and to make this series anything other than a triumph.

The show does an excellent job at showing how the crisis the US faced was really caused.

If I'm honest I never really take a look at medication my doctor prescribes, I just take them because I trust my physicians.

That changes however whenever I am visiting the US, there I always check what a pain-medication does (I have had friends going through rehab and I know I wouldn't survive it having grown up in a cult causing issues giving up control over my own actions)

Living in germany, I am wondering if they really tried to get oxycotin on our market prescription free.

I could have told them that hell would freeze over before that happened. Doctors are very careful prescribing pain-medication here. You have to have a prescription to get anything stronger than ASS 400mg.

Love this show must watch !

This is very accurate, and all too real having dealt with this situation first hand i know how hard it is to get out of that life style and i know so many peo.ple who werent fortunate enough to get out this is a great series very raw
