Watch this only if you want to become angry

If you agree with victim blaming, this series is for you. Let me say that Jodie Comer is hugely talented in the role of Ivy. That makes watching Thirteen even more difficult watch. The police in this drama are horrifying, their attitudes are like law enforcement from the 1950s; though I'm not sure that even detectives from that decade would act this horribly.

A 13-year-old is kidnapped and held captive in a basement for thirteen years yet the police try harder to implicate the child than the abductor through most of the series. It is completely unbelievable that the police would treat a sexual assault survivor in this manner.

I really only kept watching because of the performance by Comer and several other actors, specifically her family members. I'm sorry that they drew me in because this series angered me more than anything. Don't waste your time

score 5/10
