As an actual Romani/Gypsy woman I find this show to be the most offensive, inaccurate, tone-deaf depiction of my culture. This shows ill-depiction of a marginalized people with no voice is one of the most racist things I have ever witnessed. You would NEVER see such a depiction of almost any other race without international outcry. It's basically racist porn. Stating this is the ways of the average Gypsy person is like saying Honey Boo Boo is what a typical white american is like.
