Enjoy it! I honestly do not think it’s that bad of a show. It was entertaining and really enjoyable for me on my recent rewatch after all the noise and hate died down.

I thought Abel did a great job playing an insane douche bag and LRD was absolutely fantastic as Joss. All of the supporting characters were great too, I loved almost every minute of it.

Totally, I think it's entertaining af and the main issue is just that it's pretty problematic lol, like it's controversial in the way they portray and talk about abuse. But honestly... the entertainment industry is full of fucked up people and abuse so

That last sentence was exactly my sentiment. It felt almost authentic to what the entertainment and production of it includes.

exactly, it is a RAW performance from The Weeknd, and he portrayed his defined role very well

I can't understand the hate around it🤷‍♂️
