Insatiable is a dark comedy-drama series that aired on Netflix in 2018, produced by Lauren Gussis. The series revolves around the life of a teenager named Patty Bladell, played by Debby Ryan, who has faced body shaming throughout her life due to being overweight. The series highlights how Patty's life changes after losing weight and then taking revenge on those who have wronged her, with the help of a lawyer named Bob Armstrong, played by Dallas Roberts.

The series features a well-crafted storyline that addresses the issue of body shaming and the effects it can have on a person's life. The protagonist Patty is shown to be initially insecure about her appearance, leading her to take drastic measures and lose a significant amount of weight. However, despite her physical transformation, she realizes that her internal struggles remain the same, and she continues to face hostility from those around her.

The plot explores themes of self-love, acceptance and addresses the complex relationship between society and beauty standards. As she begins to navigate her newfound freedom and popularity, Patty also learns to come to terms with herself, her past experiences, and how she views her body image.

Despite having vastly different backgrounds, the two form a strong bond and work together to achieve their goals. Dallas Roberts portrays Bob Armstrong excellently, highlighting the complicated nature of his character while demonstrating his dedication to helping Patty achieve her goals.

Another character of note is Christopher Gorham's character, Bob Barnard, who is shown as a pageant coach who becomes romantically involved with Bob Armstrong. Gorham's portrayal of the character is well balanced and highlights the complexity of the situation for Bob Armstrong, who is already a married man.

The casting for the series is excellent, with all the actors delivering excellent performances throughout. Debby Ryan, in particular, shines as Patty Bladell, showcasing the character's transformation from an insecure and awkward teenager to a confident young woman who realizes her worth.
