All Her Fault just shows how men do little to pull their weight and end up placing all accountability on women for mistakes due to stress, lack of sleep, and pressure. Jake Lacy's character never picks up his son and is constantly powertripping over others by instilling guilt in their minds, while Dakota Fanning's onscreen husband is so set on blaming her character that even the investigative cop calls it out. They're working moms and still are expected to do all the homemaking/chores. But a man thinks he can take a night off to do nothing but watch reels in a parking lot. This limited series is about feminism.
i hope no one minds if i liveblog this bitch: all her fault from 1x02
1x02
PETER YOU INCOMPETENT BITCH
“i swear, you can do anything.” she should have killed him right then and there.
can’t believe they had this woman living with them and didn’t even think to look into her.
GOD, JENNY’S HUSBAND SUCKS, TOO!!!! i already knew that, but DAMN.
“i can’t believe you didn’t sense anything.” KILL YOURSELF
“did you sense anything, mr. kaminski?” “what?” “when you spoke to the nanny’s references, did you sense anything unusual?” “oh, i-i don’t talk to anyone. i mean, that’s really more jenny’s department.” “i see.” 🤭
ooh, that date clearly means something to the detective!! (side note: i don’t trust him, either!!)
they keep focusing on marissa and peter’s lockscreen being a picture of milo and i’m curious as to whether it means something more.
“do you know who else took the day off on the 25th? peter irvine.” why am i gasping? i already suspected that.
lia is pissing me off so bad
i too want marissa and jenny to become best friends (and also lovers-WHO SAID THAT?)
ooh, he lied about a conference? *pretends to be shocked*
what are the fucking odds that ana also goes to the same milkshake place as carrie
“sometimes i think we’re capable of just about anything.” oh?
“i took down all the photos where i’m reading to orphans, and left up the ones where i’m mid-orgy.” LMFAO
“got your message. let’s talk.” HELLO??? CARRIE IS THAT YOU, GIRL?
PETER, I HATE YOU, YOU PIECE OF SHIT
that press conference was so accurate to how real life parents of missing children are treated.
oh, so peter wasn’t talking to carrie. he’s still a piece of shit.
i don’t believe that he wasn’t cheating
“you are all that i will ever want. ever.” sure.
i do not trust this detective.
“brian was, uh, not born disabled. there was an accident, and it was lia’s fault.” woah.
so that’s how they know it was an inside job
his birthday cake 🥺
finally, i was hoping they’d catch on to ana lying in this episode
MILO!!! he’s so precious
okay, the episodes just keep getting better and better!! i’m looking forward to how this all eventually wraps up, especially because my theories are all over the place right now 🙃
1x03
i knew that ending was a fake out, but i still wasn’t expecting ana to show up at their house
why the fuck does peter look like he’s trying not to panic???
mar’s stronger than me, i would’ve thrown myself across the table at ana.
ANA, YOU DUMB BITCH
“you called the police? i’ll get in trouble.” “you should be grateful that they’re here.” gagged
here me out: what if the detective is the man carrie was arguing with at the marathon? i really don’t trust him.
peter, you handled that situation pretty well, but i still have my eye on you.
PLEASE let her best friend be a red herring!!!!!
FUCK, HE’S STEALING MONEY FOR HIS GAMBLING ADDICTION, ISN’T HE?
“charleston man claims he was ‘married in ufo abduction ceremony’” 😭
hmm. this convo jenny and richie are having about her promotion not having additional money…interesting.
i can’t tell if that call was genuine
i hope this old lady isn’t involved, she’s lovely.
while the man in the flashback with carrie certainly has similar height to colin (imo), i really don’t want to believe he has anything to do with milo’s kidnapping.
i wanna hug marissa so tight
i really hope the call was genuine, cause if it’s not, they just lost a shit ton of money for no reason
THE CAMERA!!!!!
JENNY, I SUPPORT YOUR RIGHTS AND WRONGS - KILL YOUR HUSBAND!
colin, you ass.
who the fuck is that?
WHAT IF IT’S THE OLD LADY’S SON? OR GRANDSON???? AND THAT’S WHY MARISSA WAS GIVEN HER ADDRESS FOR PICK UP??? IT’S BEEN IN THE BACK OF MY MIND SINCE SHE SHOWED UP THIS EP AND OMG?
I KNEW IT
1x04
“we need to do one quick thing, okay? just you and me.” oh God, is he going to hurt milo?
oh, a gun. awesome.
“i’d still do anything to get him into st. mark’s. anything.” “me too.” hm.
“sometimes i think we’re capable of just about anything.” -> “i think even good people can do bad things if they’re pushed.” hmmm.
well okay, i love sam!
i wonder if jacob’s telling the truth or if he recognizes him and is just scared?
yeah, he’s totally going to switch the pills.
the detective kinda gagged esther, i can’t lie
i’ll be honest, the motive just being money and nothing more personal would be a bit disappointing.
i wonder if she’s his sister and not his girlfriend.
ding, ding, ding.
“i’m not above bribery.” ha.
“‘carrie finch’ where’d you come up with that name, josie?” omg
“but we’re not handling anything on our own.” she’s going to kill peter when she finds out
the one recurring theme with sam this entire episode is that he’s happy 🥹
“he wouldn’t keep something that big from me.”
they keep mentioning brian and lia so much, i’m wondering if somehow they’re unknowingly involved. maybe the drugs? hope they start giving even more solid answers now that we’re nearing the end.
how dare they make me feel things for this cop
alcaras telling marissa that kyle sent her to the most loving person he knew on the worst day of her life makes me think he knew she was gonna go off on esther
oh, they’re neglecting sam? yeah, he’s definitely going to switch out the pills to get him into that facility and i hate that he has to resort to that.
sam is an angel who deserves everything good
i’m officially on the edge of my seat
oh God, i hope the blood is carrie’s.
calling it: kyle’s the one in the water.
1x05
I WAS RIGHT
WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN SHE SET HER SIGHTS ON MILO BEFORE EVEN MEETING JENNY????
that look on lia’s face when the detective said either carrie took chips or someone gave it to him and the look she shares with colin when marissa said carrie met milo through someone else…HMM.
“you don’t understand. there was no one else that visited the ranch. it was just the five of us. it was just the people in this room.” THIS SHOW JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!!!!!
LIA WAS IN REHAB AND WHO WAS A DEALER? THAT’S RIGHT, KYLE!!!!
i had my suspicions before, and it might just be his guilty conscience for taking her money, but i’m pretty sure colin and lia are fucking.
lia’s lying through her teeth about that art gallery.
the cake…oh, this is devastating ❤️🩹
marissa is most definitely going to have a huge crash out somewhere in this episode and i am so looking forward to it
so glad marissa called the art gallery, cause i don’t buy that story one bit. it was too rehearsed.
KILL YOURSELF RICHIE YOU LITTLE BITCH
jenny needs to kill richie and lez out with marissa.
i know they haven’t showed him much unless he’s bitching, but i wonder if richie plays a bigger part in this whole thing?
“he doesn’t do well when people don’t, you know, need him?” WALK WITH ME, HERE: what if peter set this whole thing up because he needs to be needed, and it just got way out of hand??? wouldn’t be the craziest thing to happen.
okay, brian is ruled out for now - but colin and lia were gone for hours. they were either hooking up, getting drugs, or colin was gambling. maybe all three.
peter saying he can’t forgive jenny yet is so annoying - IT WASN’T HER FAULT, ASSHOLE.
peter keeps saying brian is an adult, yet he isn’t treating him like one. he’s cooking for him, telling him about what he’s eating, putting in a grocery order for him, refusing to let him use his chair even though he wants to…brian, kill that man.
oof. lia’s stealing brian’s pills.
all roads are gonna lead back to colin, i know it.
who the hell is colin texting
“lia and i have been seeing each other. for months.” yeah, i figured.
“lia did not take those pills!” “right, no. what? they just walked out on their own?” 😭
these last few episodes are amazing
colin is absolutely right.
the way sarah is out acting both of these men in this scene when she isn’t even speaking anymore.
PETER LIED ABOUT THE OPERATION!!!! what did i just say about colin being right?
peter is fucking evil and i am not convinced that he didn’t set up milo’s kidnapping
FUCK THIS IS INTENSE
peter is a twisted motherfucker
HE’S THE REASON BRIAN FELL AND HE MANIPULATED BRIAN AND LIA INTO THINKING IT WAS HER FAULT OH HE’S SICK IN THE HEAD
the face of a woman realizing she’s married to a psychopath
“maybe you’re the reason milo went missing!” finally, someone said it
oh God, marissa 💔
“the longer we are married, the more i like it when you’re gone.” GET HIM AGAIN, MAR
the boy can’t be milo, there are too many episodes left
this episode was horrifying.
1x06
why is milo alone in a parking lot???
OH GOD IT’S ACTUALLY HIM
milo is a sweet angel baby!!
he was returned…because of peter?
“all that matters is family.” he’s insane.
“i don’t care about you or your siblings, peter.” queen.
i hate richie sm
shit, he’s acting out because of carrie 🫠
hopefully marissa finds out about peter paying ransom and she divorces his sorry ass
welp. bet that dead man was the one who returned milo. maybe that’s why she killed him?
what if carrie’s dead and peter’s the one murdering people? he’s crazy enough that i wouldn’t put it past him.
“i can’t live without you guys.” then die.
“i kind of love you.” it sucks cause colin is a piece of shit, too. lia deserves so much better than the men that are in her life
gambling…watch it come back to colin.
CAN PETER PLEASE DIE?!
of course richie lied
sarah’s a bitch 😭
irene murphy’s gonna be the same woman who revealed carrie’s real name is josie, isn’t she?
“i want a divorce.” THANK THE LORD
FUCK PETER AND RICHIE, ALL MY HOMIES HATE PETER AND RICHIE
CARRIE’S HER DAUGHTER????? oh my God.
wonder if josie’s gonna go after colin & lia next
or all of them. that’s cool, too.
1x07
well, that was intense.
“i own you.” damn
her parent are awful
I WOULD DIE FOR MILO
i was really rooting for peter to be involved
“my dad isn’t perfect, but he does love me. i know it.” lol. lmao even.
milo’s the most chill kid ever, i’m crying. they’re all worried about the lasting impact this is gonna have on him, meanwhile he’s just like “🙂” the whole time.
I KNEW SHE WASN’T THE ONE TO KILL HER DAD!!! so who did? maybe i was right earlier, and it is peter. even though josie’s clearly alive and her dad killed kyle, i still don’t believe peter’s innocent
uh…? is she having false memories where her baby lived?
OH MY GOD, HE DIDN’T DIE IN CHILD BIRTH!?
“that must’ve been the other baby.” huh?
“i don’t know if it was the crash, or at the hospital or what, but somehow, they got the babies confused.” WHAT THE FUCK
literally my face right now bc i never saw that coming.
THEN WHO THE FUCK KILLED HER DAD!? hoping it was peter. i hate that guy.
not gonna lie, i wasn’t that interested in this episode, but the last half saved it.
1x08
colin deserved that tbh why would he do something so damn stupid
FUCK, HE KILLED JOSIE!! at least mar knows it’s bc he didn’t want them talking.
he’s gaslighting the fuck out of marissa
I SHOULD HAVE NEVER DISMISSED THAT SCAR ON MAR’S SHOULDER
peter’s even more sick than i thought.
THE FORESHADOWING IN THIS SHOW IS TOP TIER
“she was just crazy.” I’M GONNA LOSE IT
i knew peter killed the dad
my heart breaks for lia
Jesus, how long until he starts abusing milo?
AWW, ESTHER IS JENNY’S NANNY <3
it would be so hot if marissa and jenny team up to murder peter. maybe at colin’s funeral? lia mentioned his allergy - maybe they can slip some soy into his food?
aw shit, the detective is figuring it out
i truly have no idea how the rest of this episode will play out
BRIAN MY KING
PETER, GO TAKE A LONG WALK OFF A SHORT CLIFF
“that’s true, i manage your allergy for you.” MARISSA IRVINE, I AM SO IN LOVE WITH YOU - YOU BAD BITCH
“peter irvine, he’s dead.” LIFE IS WORTH LIVIIIINGGGG
can’t these detectives just be a little more stupid so mar can get away with murder?
“these nice people. killing each other.” this quote with context…omg.
LIA I KNEW YOU’D COME THROUGH
SAMMY KISSING THE DOG 🥹🫶🏼
“the case is closed now.” DETECTIVE ALCARAS, I’M SO SORRY I DOUBTED YOU, I COULD KISS YOU ON THE MOUTH!!!!
gonna pretend that marissa and jenny get together once marissa’s done healing 😌
this show was perfect. PERFECT!!! it surpassed all of my expectations, and the ending was extremely satisfying. GIVE SARAH SNOOK HER EMMY, NOW! she acted circles around every single one of her cast mates. i can’t wait to see what project she’s in next!
I enjoyed how the how the mini series, All Her Fault portrayed the classical fairy tale archetype of Bluebeard. At first you think that the enemy comes from the outside, a typical kidnapping case. But it's the father, husband, and brother, the apparently perfect and responsible father. But as everything starts to unravel, and secrets leak out like the bloody key from the tale, you can't unsee it. Marissa has to choose if she stays with Bluebeard in his castle of lies, always placating him and probably her son or herlself becoming his future victim or outsmarting him and seeking a way to be free of him.
I really liked the ending of All Her Fault, but I can't help but feel for how unfair it is for Carrie-uhh-Josie to have her life robbed. She was a TEENAGE mother, who got her CHILD STOLEN from her, never had parents who were kind or put her first, and then was MURDERED by the same evil man who stole her child with a "punchable face"
I knew the husband was somehow responsible for their brother's accident. Peter seemed too eager to put the blame on the sister when talking to that cop early on, and later when his brother was asking him about it, Peter seemed devoid of emotion and it seemed like the brother didn't actually remember what happened before he went unconscious
