Watching videos of the real life case between the episode releases of the show helps you see it in a whole new way. As for the actresses high baby voice in her portrayal of Gypsy, did you people not see the videos of the real life Gypsy ?! The actress is on point, that exactly how Gyspy sounded during this whole ordeal and after the murder took place.
Think that takes away from the "dark" true story we're watching. I know this is an insane tale that happened in real life but that doesn't mean you have to make it all exaggerated, especially in moments when it doesn't have to be. While the acting is great and some of the camera shots, it can be campy and overdone in some instances.
The way the show played this part, among others out made it seem so outrageous and fake to me but, to my surprise, it's an actual true event from this story. For example one of those moments is how Gyspy met that "Wolverine" fellow at the cosplay convention and managed to start a mini relationship with him, this turned out to be true and it truly was her first attempt at running away from home in real life. There are some crazy moments in the show that I thought were part of the dramatic embellishments, but after watching several videos on the case, these crazy moments turned out to have actually happened. The show reminds you at the end that while it's based on real events, some things have been added for dramatic purposes. Same for the actor that's playing Gypsy's online boyfriend.
Patricia Arquette is outstanding, she really creeps me out more so than the real "Dee Dee" Blanchard in some instances. (My familiarity with it is what lead me to watch it). I was familiar with the Blanchard case prior to watching the show.
