Carla Hay Culture Mix May 25
This four-episode docuseries is more exploitative than investigative. It's so tacky to have convicted fraudster Sherri Papini recreate her controversial disappearance for the cameras. The documentary also fails to ask some questions that need answers. Go to Full Review

The S @The_Stranger Jun 13 It’s absolutely embarrassing to live in a timeline where someone would spend the money and time to give this woman yet another platform. Shame on the producers for cranking out this lowest common denominator garbage and for giving her a stage to continue to tell her lies. While the producers and director could be interviewing and documenting the lives of heroes and Amercians who have made a difference in people’s lives, they choose to make this trash. We are truly all living in the dumbest timeline of world history right now and stuff like this is proof positive. We went from a culture that told amazing stories of incredible feats and interesting people to this embarrassing and sad soap opera. See more Read all reviews
