The True Story Behind Baby Reindeer | Netflix

Joker got stalked by Harley Quinn in Joker 2

Such a testament to his personal strength and character to be this open and vulnerable to critics and audiences. Such an insightful person. I hope he writes a book

Teri’s and Donny’s physical assault wasn’t reported to the authorities and that was infuriating. It could have locked her up for years and not 9 months

Just saw the show yesterday night (I know, I'm late). At first I was (agreeably) surprised that the main character was depicted with such moral ambiguity, as he's kind of "responsible" for what happens to him. But today, when I discovered that it's a sort of autobiography, it all made sense !
As a victim of (less extreme) abuse myself, I know that we can let people hurt us multiple times, that we can feel sorry for our abusers (who aren't completely evil and suffered their share of abuse for the most part), that we feel tremendous guilt in sharing our pain with our loved ones, that we may struggle to properly define and embrace our sexuality when not straight... All those things that are so difficult to understand for people who haven't been victims themselves and were so brilliantly depicted in the show !
Many thanks Mr Gadd, I think your work is public utility and I'm very glad it was a hit in so many countries !!

why seeking the stalker up and staying with his r*pist for days when he can just leave - that's is so messed up!

I thought i was in for a comedy but it was so much more. I could really feel the rawness and honesty of emotions. It felt real so i wasn’t surprised that it was based on real events.
I also very easily found the real marthas twitter and stuff. She gave me the same unhinged vibes. So i do believe him.

Hope this doesnt come across as creepy stalker but I love u Richard Gadd!! What a gem you are. I sincerely wish you are doing much better now. can't wait to hear your speech at the Emmy's. It's gonna be a win for sure!

I just now found out that the real guy directed and he WAS THE VICTIM, I’m so glad he made this into a series. I’m glad he spoke up about this

I will find you reindeer…..

True events?
You CAN control how citizens react IF the truth is apparent.
Did she serve jail time? NO.
IS this right???
"This is a True Story."
Huh.

This dude is seriously talented!!

such art

this could be the cap to a whole century of telivision as an art movement. the strange perversion so many producers encroach with the allowance of extreme taboo. now combatted by the exact same thing done for the right reasons. this is 21st century women of troy. richard euripides gadd

This show helped me so much 😢 I’ve always felt so complicated about my rape because it was confusing and bc I went back afterward and bc I wanted to be gracious to the person. This show helped me realize I don’t need to be a perfect victim to acknowledge my pain

Are they going to make season 2???

I'm so glad Baby Reindeer won 4 Emma's tonight. I never heard of it but now I can't wait to see The series.😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ congratulations 🎉

Yes, it really does resonate. Full stop. Thank you. I'm sincerely sorry that you well that ANYONE has gone through this. You ABSOLUTE LEGEND!

Brilliant and honest interview. What a brave person, for anyone who has experienced trauma and at some point, wakes up and sees the long term consequences when you live with guilt and shame, this is a reminder. Freedom is on the other side of recognizing it’s not your fault. The things that happen to us are a matter of circumstance. How we choose to live is up to us.

Horrifyingly beautiful story. Well done.

I adored this show. It puts you through the wringer but it stays with you for days after you watch it. I haven’t stopped thinking about it. Absolutely genius. And the woman who plays Martha? Oscar worthy performance! I had chills 90% of the time.

I’m mindlessly scrolling through Netflix yesterday, and I hit this show. I look at the preview and I think to myself “oh boy I’m probably going to watch this in one day.” I just finished this show in 24 hours. Baby Reindeer hit different emotions in my body. It felt so real, the acting was spot on magnificent. My eyes, ears were glued to my TV screen. Well done. Well done. 👏

Have you guys heard the song "Baby Reindeer"? I found it super interesting and really captured the message of the show

Over 41,000 emails from one person? If I were to count the amount of emails that I have received from everyone in my lifetime, I still wouldn't come anywhere near that number. Holy shit...

I started the series on Netflix while I was grabbing some snacks from the kitchen. I never watched the trailer, never read what the series was about and I even missed the part in the beginning where it states that the series of events were based on a true story.

I sat down and just started watching it. I was laughing at times, so intrigued, creeped out at some points, pissed off at others, hurt with feelings of being depressed and confused as to what was happening to me and why this series was so interesting, humorous and yet so dark?

Then the gut wrenching scenes played and my heart just bleed out, I cried so hard I was shaking and once I realized this was all based on true events, I fully understood that I had just watched a show that was absolutely brilliant, on every single level!.... Well done Richard, this was pure genius!....

Richard was so brave to share his story. I think this opens doors to remove the shame of sexual abuse which happens so much especially in the industry of young people who are eager to be successful. This was magnificent. I hope he wins awards for this. I could relate to so much of this especially confronting his abuser after he leaves his place. How the nervous system just goes into ptsd. Had my share of stalkers as well and it’s absolutely terrifying. I remember meeting this guy online dating and leaving as he was trying to come on to me in the parking lot. I had to pull over and throw up. Then when I got home he texted me. SAFE? Another sitting outside my house in his car watching me. Then proceeded to email me message me every way he could for months. I actually can’t believe I am saying this and it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Thank you Richard 🙏🙏🙏 This was such an emotional moving series that will stay with me. Fellow survivors appreciate you!

Its a good series, its fiction though. Check out the interview with "Martha" on piece morgan and judge for yourself. Its an easier sell when its a "real" story. Hence the description.

My name is Martha. I wasn't comfortable watching this neurotic...situation. Still, it was very well done.

He is incredibly brave to open up to the world about this. All the praise is well deserved.

Finding out that the show is largely autobiographical for the lead and creator, shifted something in my gut. This is talent and bravery of a different kind. Props.

❤absolutely brilliant. One of the best of the best Netflix has to offer

He truly didn't let his abuser end him

It is literally wild to his real stalker denying everything.

A stalker story they said was a true story but actually a lot of it was made up.

I watch this series over and over again and use it to educate my peer that men also can be traumatised and be victims of harassments.

Oh my god

Craziest thing about this is it based on a true story. His story.

Damn both lead actors nailed it.

Thank you for telling your story, I learned a lot.

the abuse is a bit jeffrey dahmer to me.. scary shit ..scary

I loved Terri so much! she was so patient and empathetic and strong and kind.

When he got upset it made me feel sad for him
what a drama to go thru I suppose it you don't laugh you'd cry 😢

The rawness and authenticity of the show reminds me of Michaela Coel’s ‘I May Destroy You’

Insanely good. Thank you for your vulnerability.

I can't believe Richard Gadd was the Bay Harbour Butthole Begger!

Congrats to Richard Gadd for an extraordinary body of work. And his complex performance, as well as Jessica’s, was nothing short of absolutely brilliant.
Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏

Thank you Terry 🫶🏻

Not Stoorkers story Stalkers story.

Shame, Pain, Guilt are all indicators of something more incredibly wounding in us. We shouldn't hold on to these emotions, but we should acknowledge them and get to healing.

I dated someone who was obsessed with this she started locking me in the house, got me cautioned for abh when i tried wrestling with her then eventually she tried stabbing me so i rang poloce and they nfaed it due to not enough evidence even though the knife was where i said i put it she told them i tried it with a smaller knife.
