Alyssa Milano, Debby Ryan talk 'Insatiable' and fat shaming
NEW YORK (AP) — After the trailer was released for the new Netflix series "Insatiable," some on social media voiced concern: Was the dark comedy fat shaming?
The show drops Friday. It follows the return to high school of a girl named Patty, who loses a lot of weight after years of bullying. Having lost the weight, she's out for revenge. Patty is played by former child Disney star Debby Ryan. She and co-star Alyssa Milano said in a recent interview they welcome conversation on the subject.
Ryan told The Associated Press in a recent interview she felt a little like her character when walking around the set in prosthetics that added weight.
