I recently read an article that said Gypsy had said living in prison was more free and fulfilling for her than living with her mother and how she was so happy now even though she was behind bars. That speaks for itself.

This gives me rapunzel vibes “Mother knows best”

No-one is talking about Nick's life sentence that he got for this girl when he should get psychological help. The guy did a heroic act by freeing gypsy.

Yes, she killed her mom, but her whole life was ruined, she was lied to and abused. She saw it as the only option. I think 10 years is too much.

Am I the only one that believes that the girl was actually innocent ? Like she's been through so much physical and emotional abuse that the only way she thought she could leave that vicious circle was by murdering her mother.

Her ACTING is literally amazing Appreciate the likes tho ❤️❤️

is nobody gonna talk about how the actor playing nick is the same actor who played dez in austin and ally?!

I like how Gypsy was extremely honest though, she even pleaded guilty and she only has to serve 10 years, and she's happier in prison. I guess she's felt more free than she ever has been.

I think the scariest part about this is that there’s probably more people being abused the way Gypsy was right now than we think there is. We would have never found out she was never disabled had she not met Nick

the girl plays gypsy is such a great actor

I'm on gypsys side. Her mother reaped what she sowed and Karma killed her. One less evil person on this planet. Release Gypsy.

She shouldn’t have gotten ten years. She should have gotten counseling and help, as she was a victim.

If you didn’t know, this is actually based off of a true story that happened recently, a few years ago. A mother made false medical records for her “disabled” daughter. She gave her daughter shots/meds/feeding tubes/wheelchairs for false medical issues. Eventually the daughter fell in “love” with a boy online and talked him into killing her mother. So they did.... and now she’s in jail. And miraculously- stands on her own two feet despite “needing” a wheelchair when her mother was alive.

Her mom was crazy. She really messed up her daughters life

Lets talk about how they played them so well. Joey King nailed Gypsys voice, Nick did an amazing job by acting like this kinda pervy mysterious creepy old man vibe, and Patricia NAILED acting like DeeDee. The way she smashed the computer, the way she screamed at Joey, or the way she pulled Joey in the wheelchair, so much emotion!! It really showed that nothing is EVER what it seems.

I don’t remember this part of austin and ally

In shock on how the doctors could be so oblivious it says a lot about our health care system profit valued over life.

Can we all talk how PERFECTLY they played Gypsy and Nick. Maybe better than anyone played anyone only difference if the features

It's insane seeing how far of an actress Joey King has evolved to. I remember seeing her in the Romona and Beezus movie and I adored that movie, and now seeing her in this is just insane. She's going places for sure.

The fact that this is a real story Just makes me Sad

Gypsy Rose was on Dr. Phil telling her story. I felt for her, being trapped, abused, and in the mind set that you have been sick your whole when it was actually all a lie.

This happened about 5 minutes from my house. It's weird driving by there on the way into town. Last time I saw it, the ramp was still there. I don't know how anyone could live there.

Anyone else here after the real Gypsy Rose got out from jail today⁉️

1:25 the way he said "you can tell me" hit different tho

Joey king is just an exceptionally talented actress.

*she grew up believing "mothers knows best"*

I feel the most for her “boyfriend” that guy got the worst of it. He literally is not mentally all there.

Most people are talking about Joey, but can we talk about Calum for a moment? He played the character Nick so well, even up to the way he walked and even his hand movements. I know that sound kinda weird but it’s so true, he really did an amazing job.

i thought her acting was absolutely awful in the kissing booth but she’s really proved to have potential talent in this and i’m really looking forward to it !! i wonder how the genuine gypsy reacts when it comes out !! she doesn’t deserve to be in prison she has reasons !!! lots of them !!!

does anyone else remember Ramona and Beezus? And now joeys all grown up and is such an amazing actress and I’m so proud to have witnessed her journey

I don’t think Dee Dee was portrayed very well, in the act she appears quite creepy, like if you met her you would think something wasn’t right. But in videos and interviews of Dee Dee that I’ve seen I think she seems much more believable and friendly, you can see why she got away with it for so long

I used to Nurse in a Mental Hospital. Sadly cases similar to this happen more than one would expect.

The fact that she is actually happier in prison makes be feel so awful for her.Her own mother made her life a complete lie and did so many things to her just to get money and attention that is sick.

The movie is very attractive waiting for the release date

At first I watched the real life documentary, then I watched this show over 10 times just because of how great the acting is, the way they portrayed the storyline, wicked crazy ride, such great casting for this show honestly

Who else saw all the documentaries and got really excited to see that it was going to become a Hulu series? 😂

this is the most mindfuck series I've ever seen. This whole story is shocking me and I have already watched and read everything about this case and this is one of the most insane thing I've ever heard, seen and read. I still can't get over the fact. Life writes the "best" stories...

I can’t comprehend how her mom had the nerve to say, “no one will ever do more than I do” as if she wasn’t faking her daughters disorders for money

Just finished watching the whole season. Great series!!!

Wow Joey has come a long way. 😭 I knew this girl as a child.

Ive been following up on this case since I saw her on dr phil. It’s painful to know she was pushed so far by someone that was supposed to protect her. Shame

Seen this ad a million friggin times before every single UKposts video I watch and it does my bloody head in

it makes me cry hearing her story, sometimes the law becomes too harsh on a person

they couldn’t have picked a better actress. joey king fits this role the best!

I’m shook about the fact that that guy is in Austin and Ally

Patricia did an amazing job on this! They all did. Sad story...Gypsy was extremely abused. On the outside looking in, one would think all she had to do was just leave. Especially with her mom's health failing. But I truly believe that her mother placed so much fear in her for years, that she felt she had to take drastic measures. Proof that mental chains tend to be harder to break than physical ones.

the sad thing is that this is based on true events omg

The Story looks like Rapunzel but darker

i live right in the middle of the area where the real life events of this happened. before gypsy killed her mom, they’d used to go to walmart, where MY mom worked, all the time. they were very well known by the community because of their talent of standing out. my mom tells me that she used to see them at walmart constantly while she was working. she didn’t think anything of them at the time. just that they could always be picked out in a crowd. until one day, they stopped coming and it was announced that gypsy had killed her mom. it makes my spine shiver knowing how close all of that happened to me. now there are shows and movies being made about it

This is so sad but so real. I've lived through similar atrocities with many of my foster mothers. Now I'm making a movie about it so I can educate others and protect children from abusers. I had to speak out from a child's view about the dangers of strangers caring for me. My book Adoption Not an Option gives a voice to children like Gypsy and me who are in the hands of predators. The Act is so heart wrenching and deplorable.

This gave me the chills and this is such a great show I love it. The actor of gypsy is such a great actor. Everyone with hulu should watch this.

This looks amazing, I can’t wait to watch it! Does anyone know if Gypsy will benefit in any way (monetarily or otherwise) from all of the shows/documentaries being made about her life? I’m not sure how that really works, but the poor girl has been exploited her whole life and I really hope she is taken care of when she is released.

Wow the mom lied just to keep her baby trapped and lock her from her social life

every actor in this series was truly phenomenal. what a story.

This is why abused victims are scared to speak up for them selves because they think no one will believe all of the abused they received from the abuser.

This story is insane I can’t believe this is happening

I started watching the series today. WOW! It’s amazing. I’m half way through with it. I can’t wait to finish it tomorrow.

Im born and raised pretty close to Golden Meadow/Chackbay area where Dee Dee Blanchard was from. Patricia Arquette’s performance was stellar, if you’ve never seen actual footage of Dee Dee.

GIRL IM SHOOK AAHHHH SIS I NEED TO WATCH THIS

Haven't been a fan of Joey King at all especially as of late but this looks like it's about to prove everyone wrong. Don't know a ton about this story but from what I'm gathered it's one that needs to be told and shared to the world. Munchausen Syndrome is a real disease and this very well looks like it's going to capture that. Overall this looks very riveting and disturbing and I can't wait to see how it turns out!

This is one of the best shows I have seen in the last few years great performances and stunning direction is like a thriller does not get much attention cause it is on Hulu when it should.

Can we just appreciate the woman who plays Gypsy's mother!!! Wow

ima just get the free trial on hulu for this movie

I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for what I'm about to say but..... I don't blame gypsy. She was stuck in a horrible place with a manipulative mother and she couldn't get out.

I watched this show last week and I was shook. How bad can a persons life get??? She deserves more! Poor girl.

I can't believe that Gypsy has been stuck like that for the majority of her childhood, it's obviously madness. Her mother has stopped her growth

So who tryna share their Hulu account? 😉

1st off I want to say it's completely disrespectful for them to only put this on hulu 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ We need it on netflix😂

I just finished watching this last night. I felt so awful for Gypsy! All those years of abuse, feeling like she could never escape her mother. Believing she had all those diseases and never being able to have friends. What kind of mind can be so manipulative as to have a book full of fake medical records and doctors just going along with what she told them. I hope Gypsy can have a relationship with her Dad now.

I had a feeling this series would be good from the trailer & knowing some of the actors in it & I was spot on! The end of episode #1 hooked & intrigued me. I knew from then on that the mystery & suspense would build up every episodes & I was pleased that it did. The acting is very good. Arquette & King delivered a solid performance & were very convincing to me. I loved Arquette in ESCAPE AT DANNEMORA & she was brilliant here also. The secondary actors were also great. Especially Calum Worthy, who plays brilliantly Nick, a mentally challenged teen. The story is rich & is emotional & very intriguing. The more it is told, the more I said to myself that sooner or later something will happen. I watched it in two nights. First night watched 6 episodes but it was late & I was tired for a full completion, so finished it the next night. Two thumbs up from me. ♥

THE CREEPY INTERNET BOYFRIEND IS MY CHILDHOOD CRUSH BYE

This is AMAZING. CANT WAIT TO SEE IT!!!! ♥️

Joey is such an amazing actress❤

0:22 totally sounded like the roblox “oof” sound

Is anyone else here after she was set FREE from prison 🥹❤️

God dam it, now i have to get Hulu. well played hulu well played

She got 10 years in prison irl which is so dumb when she was getting mentally and physically abused her whole life. If she didn’t do something about it she would of been the one dying.

Unbelievable and tragic story but this serie is amazing and the acting is stunning!!

🔥 the act 🔥

it’s so sad , seeing gypsy’s whole life being snatched away from her . she had so much potential and was such a nice girl 💞. she deserved better .

the kind of horror I like. reality

Excelente serie, me encantó toda la trama y el reparto... Lamentablemente que triste y terrorífica historia :(

I watched this whole series here in Brazil and I was very touched by the story of this young woman, a psychologically ill mother who kept her daughter psychologically trapped because I never heard any illness.

Gypsy's shake n go party city wigs never looked that straight & well brushed I'm rioting.

I just finished watching the first 2 episodes and I am obsessed with it! OMG!!! 😀😆

Who else is here after she’s out!!!!

What an amazing movie! Joey and Patricia are fantastic! Bravo👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

people sleep on hulu but hulu has shows that netflix dont, plus you get episodes of tv shows that just aired! this series alone is worth it!

I’ve had so many more shows I enjoy on Hulu. Officially giving Netflix the boot for now. Haven’t watched it in 2 months!

You are strong woman Gypsy. Keep spirit n never give up for your life, for your future

I get chills just watching this.... scary

Are we not going to talk about Dez being Gypsy’s boyfriend?????Like props to him Edit: 196 likes??? Thanks❤️❤️

one of my distant relatives met gypsy and her mother at a childs cancer facility in new orleans. she has pictures of her gypsy and dee dee together. She says that she never would have imagined somthing like this could happen

When is the Act season 2 coming out on Hulu

Looks so good! I wish I could watch it but I can’t find it on any of the streaming services in my country

What the heck? I just watched a video about this case!

“She’s allergic to sugar” Me: sugar is everything ☠️💀💀💀

Joey’s acting was extraordinary 👏👏👏 brilliant

Isn't she the girl of " the kissing booth"?

Still kinda sad that Gypsy are in prison. Yeah she is very guilty of her mom death but... The only choice was either her mom gone or she's gonna be suffering forever .
