    This girl is bat **** crazy. No addict can only do the **** their addicted to in moderation. That's why they are an addict. The decisions she's made in life are completely on her and she will do anything to stay relevant including putting out a bull **** documentary on how brave she is for overcoming something she hasn't even overcome.

    it's getting tired now. Yes, she can talk about her past and the things she dealt with but isn't it time to move on already? We need something fun and happy in order to get us through hard times.

    While gut wrenching and potentially triggering, Dancing With the Devil is brutally honest and admirably resists putting a rosy filter on a life-or-death issue.

    The reason the series will resonate is because of how candid she is about the complexities of addiction, the bumpy road of recovery, the pressures to be a poster child for sobriety, and the effects an episode like the one she experienced has on those in a person’s life. It’s perhaps corny but valid to venture that it could even save people’s lives.

    Dancing with the Devil is raw and heartbreaking and challenging to watch — which makes it all the more imperative that people do hear Lovato’s harrowing story. ... This is not a fun, poppy documentary, and it’s also not four episodes of hot goss. There’s a calming quality to the fact that the backgrounds of these interviews feature water or fountains or palm trees, while the clothes seem to pop with light, bright colors, as the concern in everyone’s voices will keep you watching.
