The harrowing true story of the Broberg family, whose daughter Jan was kidnapped multiple times over a period of years by a charismatic, obsessed family "friend." The Brobergs — devoted to their faith, family, and community — were utterly unprepared for the sophisticated tactics their neighbor used to exploit their vulnerabilities, drive them apart, and turn their daughter against them. This is the story of how their lives were permanently altered — and how they survived.

I finished the series and I don't know who "Alexi the dinner patron" is, a regular series actor, and why is he so important as to appear before young Jan, the FBI guy, the sisters, etc. in the cast.

Gave up on 4th episode: The naïveté and stupidly of Jan’s parents really does make them enablers. And I know that in the next 5 (!) episodes, B kidnaps Jan two more times! And this is supposed to be based on a true story?

[SkyShowtime] Possibly Peacock's best series to date, an adaptation of a surprising real story with unusual twists that manages to establish even better than the documentary the atmosphere of religiosity in which parents live, unwitting and unaware accomplices of the entry into their home from a wolf in sheep's clothing, a sexual predator who drags their daughter with a power of seduction that is actually a vehicle for pedophilic sexual abuse. The girl's abduction is a reflection of the emotional and mental abduction caused by the evangelical bubble in which she has grown up.

Was getting de ja vu watching the first episode until I realised this is the dramatised version of Netflix's _Abducted in Plain Sight_. https://trakt.tv/movies/abducted-in-plain-sight-2018

_A Friend of the Family_ is amazing in showing how easy it is to get manipulated, the damaging power of manipulation and grooming.
The beginning episodes are much better than the middle, it kind of drags on slightly. Like so many miniseries, it's just too long. At 4 episodes it could be really stro More
