This show has ups and downs but there were always enough good reasons to keep watching. But the whole show just goes back and forth between three things: Patty being a psychopath, Pattry trying to be a good person, and then there's the endless lectures that have no place in a show like this. If I wanted to be lectured I'd just live with my parents until I'm 50. Next season, maybe spent more time at least trying to be entertaining?

Knew it, the 3 of them, it's off and not gonna work
he has to choose one, he can't have both
they're bounded together, like he said, fated
hahahahhaha, what the f???, yahhh so many wrong things happened
wait what?? what happened to Stella Rox, she did something to her
I'm still hoping that Patty, somehow, will change, show something good, but this ep kill that hope after what she did to Christian, even though he deserved it
can't wait for season 2, want to see more, what will they do now that they're bounded together?

People saying it got "too dark" weren't paying attention.

Listen, this entire show is dark as Hell. Every major character has serious mental illness issues. They go back and forth between saying they care about each other and treating each other like garbage.
But to say that because Patty has killed two people by the end of this episode makes it "too dark and disturbing" is ridiculous. One of the people she killed had her handcuffed and was about to kill her, and she had no choice but to do it to escape. The other was stalking her and trying to coerce her into killing another person. She was in mortal danger, and although she may not have needed to go completely brutal with how she offed him, considering what she had been through for the 24 hours previous, is it really that shocking that she snapped?

It got too dark

I found this series to be quite entertaining right up until this episode. Patty was a bit of a headcase but she did a lot of self-reflection, and she knew she wanted to be a better person. I thought she would find a way to redemption, but this last episode took a sinister turn. It was dark, and it was ugly. Her murderous meltdown totally ruined the show for me. I won't be watching again.
No evolution even till the end

Patty once again, struggles with the biggest insecurity complex that's ever existed in the entire universe for any living entity.
I'm a good person. I'm a good person. Yet she still relentlessly smashes Christian. Hypocrisy at her finest where she condemns people for doing the very same thing she wanted to do in kidnapping, ruining others and only thinking of herself.
From day one of episode one, she's only been narcissistic and so insecure that her sense of self worth of even being alive, is tied to everything anyone thinks of her and what she wants and only what she thinks of.
There's almost no character evolution apart from her being more annoying as the season goes by.
Debby Ryan does a good job of portraying this character but there's absolutely almost nothing likeable about Patty.
Bob ties his worth to being happy and also wanting to have what he wants.
The story has a bit too much flip flopping between wanting to be serious and wanting to be comedic and it does a bit too much of it perhaps.
You see short series like others from Netflix where characters progress in their mindset and there is a development but for Insatiable, even till the very end, there's hardly any character evolution apart from being more self absorbed and more "me me me and oh no, really, am I destined for bad things/good?"
The core ideas and all were nice and interesting in terms of storyline but it seems like there was a bit too much of the self absorbed personality being in play here from most of the main characters and if it diverted from that, not much progression or delving was done in those directions.
Every character (the most of which portrayed by Patty) seems to only think of themselves and Patty seems to epitomise only caring about what she wants and doing whatever it takes to get it, justifying it with whatever she can come up with and then going through the whole "it's bad, oh no, I had to, I'm sorry, I'm bad, no I'm good" roller coaster yet again.
To say she's a bit of a narcissistic psychopath is probably not far off so it's not surprising in the end that she did what she did. She had to kill Stella Rose, fair enough since she was about to be killed if not but therein lies the issue yet again where Stella Rose's sense of self worth is yet again tied to someone (Bob) and their acceptance of her and wanting her. It's almost as if nobody apart from Brick and Coralee could function without anyone approving everything they do with some mention to Choi as well who could've had a bigger part in the story hopefully next season.

Patty has finally lost it
Trixie_reviews11 August 2018
So, watching this show was kind of a bumpy ride for me, but still mostly fun. Even thouhg Patty showed more than a few signs of being a mental case, I culd still somewhat sypatize with her and I actually quite liked the series. After all, I knew it was going to be a crazy show.
Until this last episode. What she did at the end gave me shivers and made it clear she is not only a crazy person, but also a coldblooded murderer. I'm not even that bothered by the fact that she had killed someone, but more by how she did it, when her true colors were shown. This was a bit too much for me. I won't be watching this show anymore.
