The Emmy-winning Netflix series "Baby Reindeer" had "major" differences with the real-life events it was based on, according to a judge. In a ruling on Friday, Judge R. Gary Klausner denied Netflix's motion to dismiss Fiona Harvey's defamation lawsuit against the streamer.

A judge allowed a lawsuit against Netflix's 'Baby Reindeer' to proceed. Fiona Harvey says "Martha" is based on her and is suing for defamation.

A judge has ruled that the hit Netflix series, Baby Reindeer, in which struggling comedian Donny (played by Richard Gadd) is shown dealing with a deeply troubled stalker named Martha, should not have been billed as a true story.
