Insatiable: Season 1 – Recap/ Review (with Spoilers)

While Insatiable does have a few buds which could have grown, the overuse of terrible jokes and storylines suffocate what could have bloomed.

Can a show jump the shark in its first season? Such needs to be asked considering what Patty does this time to escalate the show’s drama.

Just as Patty starts her redemption tour, she does something evil again. Meanwhile, the Bobs figure out how to deal with their respective marriages.

From a demon twin, Bob A telling the whole truth about Stella Rose, and Bob B revealing multiple secrets, episode 8 is plain ole ridiculous.

As the episode addresses body dysmorphia, trans issues, and Nonnie’s sexuality, we get a slight reprieve from what Insatiable usually puts out.

While the title of the episode does poke the bear a bit, becoming skinny not fixing the trauma Patty experienced is also in full effect.

Insatiable’s pilot really does show that we live in a time that lacks trust and takes to being offended easily, simply off a headline.
