Anyone else watching Monster: The Ed Gein Story?
I’m on episode 6 and honestly… I don’t want to say I hate it, but I kind of do. The show is full of embellishments and straight-up falsehoods that mess with the actual case details.
They added fictional relationships (like a supposed “accomplice”), hinted at romantic ties between Gein and his victims, and even stretched the evidence around his brother’s death; none of which are supported by real records. It’s all a little too Hollywood for what should be a fact-based story.
Anyone else watching? Curious if I’m the only one who’s side-eyeing half of this series.

I've heard so many head-shaking things about this one that I don't even feel like giving it a chance. It's a shame because I enjoyed the other series.
