Pretty sure it was DMM a month or so ago. I put it on the list and my wife and I just finished it the past 2 days.
Hardest we’ve laughed at a show in years.
It’s on Amazon Prime Freevee if anyone is interested. Very different show but amazingly well done and hysterical. Highly recommend it.
Here’s the trailer - (
New Window )
Everything he saw and everyone he knew for a period of time was fake. He was in a real life Truman Show. That has to mess with your head.
The fist one was a classic.

Can you link those? I googled this after and I didn't see too many things saying he had PTSD, but that for a few months, it messed with his head and that he kept questioning his reality for that time. Nothing I read suggests PTSD. PTSD usually requires there to be threat of danger, not people messing with you in a documentary you signed off to be in and received a cash prize for while having a good time and people still following up with you after to stay in touch. I'm a therapist. Maybe I'm missing something, but many things "mess with your head" for a little bit but don't cause PTSD.

I don't blame you, I am really skeptical too. Half the time I am thinking it is real, just based off his genuine reactions and the other half I am thinking there's no way because some of the scenes are just so comical, such as how terrible the lawyer is.

James Marsden is great. The guy actually has PTSD from the show if you read any followup articles. It's a completely unethical experiment that no IRB would allow. I'm not upset about it but it's fascinating from his perspective.

Maybe I overstated. I did read a bit somewhere about how James Marsden was helpful to him and he was having some problems and perhaps I made a leap from there. I wasn't crapping on the show or minimizing PTSD.
