The show tells the story of Gypsy’s abuse at the hands of her mother, who likely had Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP), and how she and her boyfriend, Nick Godejohn, plotted her death. The season finale actually aired on May 1, so technically there aren’t any more to watch - yet. The Act - starring Patricia Arquette, Joey King, Calum Worthy and other very talented players - aired eight episodes in all for its first season. The fictionalized account of the story of Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, is a must-see, but how many episodes of the show are left? It’s a limited series, so it’s not hard to sit down and watch all of the episodes if you haven’t had a chance to see any of the show just yet. If you haven’t caught any of Hulu’s true crime series The Act yet, grab the popcorn and get to watching.
