This week on episode #213 of New Release … doeboys Ashley and Drew instantly develop a love/hate relationship with some new Netflix stalker show. Baby Reindeer dramatizes the true story of a struggling comedian getting stalked, and the complicated feelings he has toward this newfound hyper-focused fame. Is an onslaught of attention from a convicted felon and compulsive liar disturbing? Yeah, sure. But it is flattering? Big time. How long would you ‘put up with’ a stalker if it were good for your career and self-esteem? We discuss whether the series is sophisticated enough to answer such questions … or merely present them.
