I recommend you all read her book "Trouble Maker" , I couldnt put it down. I think what she's doing with this show is incredible and she's a very brave woman. I look up to her for exposing this cult for the sick s.o.bs they are! Every person who goes onto her show to share their traumatic experiences deserves the full support and respect of every viewer out there, including myself. However, I tried twice to watch the first episode and I found it somewhat boring. I fell asleep both times. I mean no disrespect to the victims of that horrible cult but the show failed to capture my attention. I hope everyone who's managed to escape the church can find peace in their lives and know nothing but support and love from those around them. They're all an inspiration to those of us who could never begin to understand what they were forced to endure.

If I would rate this honestly it would be -5. , $42 to watch her rantings! Spend those $$ for a wonderful Sunday night dinner with all the fixings. Please change the channel if an episode is shown!

This show is great! Fascinating but also heartbreaking and emotional. They are doing really meaningful, important work with this show. It’s more than entertainment, it’s social justice and restitution. It will hopefully lead to real change for real people.
