This Witch doesn't burn
|
Based on a true story, two eps in and its very compelling
Debra Newell has a perfect life -- from the outside -- she's successful, beautiful and lives in Newport Beach, one of California's most desirable coastal cities. The only thing missing from her life is love, so when she meets the charismatic, handsome and charming Dr. John Meehan, she is swept off her feet in a whirlwind romance. Her daughters, Terra and Veronic, set out to prove that he's just a conman after they are displeased at the fast-tracked relationship and decide to investigate their mother's new beau for themselves. As Debra gets drawn deeper into his lies, the psychological manipulation has consequences for the entire family.

I almost clicked on this last night before realising it's a series and decided I can't be arsed with another one.
But if it's worth it, maybe. Keep us informed Chez. |

Halfway through this. Better than I was expecting.
It looked like one of those soft-porn thrillers when I first saw it advertised. I can't decide whether Debra's mother is an older actress playing younger in the flashbacks or younger and playing older in the present scenes. |

Yeah I liked that about it as well, it galloped along, and the story was interwoven with the flashbacks

I'm on episode 5 and really surprised at how quickly the plot moves along.
I was expecting some drawn out story of them slowly getting together and then him being exposed in the last 1 or 2 episodes. |

How accurate is the show?
If the main events, outline of the plot are all from the true story then that Debra woman is INFURIATING. On episode 5 and her decisions ASTOUND ME. |

Sorry to those that saw me reveal the ending, but in my defence it was just in a national news paper and like most films based on the truth you nearly always know the story before you watch the film.

I was wondering this too, her decisions are downright stupid at times and I kept wondering why the daughters come across really dumb at times too

I didn't know anything about it and never saw the story in any paper, so I was glad I had fully watched it before you commented.

Did anyone else find the scene where the grandmother told the kid that his mum was dead really strange?

This ihas started coming up in my suggestions after I watched the sinner and 'you'..it wasn;t there before, so I take it its kind of similar to those? Though I don;t think those are similar to each other really

The age of the daughters confused me so many times too. I thought the younger one was a small child at one stage, wondering why she lived apart from her mother.
