Raw, honest, moving, and powerful. Margaret Qualley RULED the screen. Well worth the watch!

Holy shit, the level of realism in this show is just unbearable at times. Completely raw and unapologetic throughout the opening few minutes which continues well into the series. I'm on episode seven and it had reached an even more elevated height of authenticity if that's possible. If you think for one minute that anything in this show is impossible then take a big step back and wake up.

An emotional rollercoaster. Alex makes me angry and sad when she fails, yet I'm still cheering for her to keep going and finally have a win. It's heavy and so relatable, even if you're not in a similar situation that's portrayed. Amazing acting, and the directing was spot on.

Highly suggest this to people who enjoy drama without any distractions. The story remains pure and realistic. It's far from perfect but still better than high budget series/movies filled with bells and whistles and tons of artificial ways to swing your feelings.

Ep1: One person to clean THAT house in a few hours? She's Superwoman!! Then ... why have a window open with a kid in the car and belting down the freeway? Why do you park your car on the side like that ... derrr. Oh ... and the script is very weak and the acting bland. Not sure I'll make it to Ep 2.

@emm12321 Seriously? That's all you can get from the serie? How superficial.

If you like drama, this one might be for you.
For my taste, there is too much drama going on. Most of the characters are either abusers or addicts or both. Others (the mother) are just annoying. Most of the time it is really hard to watch and the stupidity of the characters makes me angry.
I am at episode 7 and it gets even more dramatic. I really try to finish this show, but I am not sure, I can.

* her mom is annoying (andie mcdowell). esp at ep 7 8.

if she didn't have sex ,get pregnant . she would have gone to college . get better job. she would be self sufficient.

as a domestic abuse survivor, this show is hard to watch. it brings back all of those muddy, icky, second-guessing feelings and a lot of the thoughts i remember having myself. but it's also kinda therapeutic watching someone else go through something similar, hearing (on tv) someone blatantly validate emotional abuse is really important for a lot of people, because a lot of abuse starts that way. before they escalate to hitting you and pushing you down the stairs they scream and yell at you and blame you for everything.

and while this show is about domestic abuse, it's also about surviving and making it out. i appreciate more than i can say with words that there are shows depicting what these types of situations are like and for giving hope to anyone stuck in these situations that there is a way out of it.

margaret qualley has done a fantastic job with this role. definitely a show worth watching.

The critics giving this praise are cowards.

I get that its hard to downvote a show about abuse, but this show is just bad.
Its the cliche abused (not battered) Wife with the mom who tells her she should go back because you don't "leave a good man" - seriously? - they live in a dump with inside furnature outside in an area that doesn't seem to be too expensive in general.

The entirety of the 4 episodes I watched, I could perfectly predict what she would do next. All the characters are a cliche and nothing interesting happens (at least not in the 4 episodes I watched).
Even the loss of her car, which could have made for an interesting story was boring, since a good guy gives her his old one.

The show fails at being entertaining and it also fails at showing what coming out of an abusive relationship really is like since all the problems solve themselves within a day or two miraculously.

Sometimes the critics you follow let you down with their recommendations, this is an example. By no means is this a bad show, however like say Perry Mason or Westworld, it's made for a certain audience and I'm not part of the demographic. Amazing lead performance by Margaret Qualley, depending one what gets released before May, she might be a frontrunner for the Emmy next year. And Andie McDowell tries too hard to be the funny mom in the first couple of episodes but kinda pulls something great in the last bunch.

This takes a while to turn good. First four episodes are a drag and I think that's due to the writers stretching this whole thing into 10 episodes which isn't necessary for a story such as this one. Not everything needs the TV treatment, some stories are best made into features or possibly under 6 parts. Examples of this include Sharp Object and Normal People. If you're into quirky dramas, this is for you.

I read the book by Stephanie Land, which is what I believe this series was loosely based on. The book was excellent, and so is the tv series, but other than the basic premise of a young single mother trying desperately to support herself by working as a maid, they have very little in common. The tv series has deep themes of domestic abuse and dysfunctional families and explores very little about her relationships or observations of/with her clients - which is what the book mostly focuses on. Either way, I recommend both - this tv series or the book - but don't expect them to have much in common.
