I guess my previous review had a bit too much reality in it, someone must’ve complained & got it removed. No worries. My takeaway after watching all the episodes: at what cost are we to be entertained, when real lives are damaged or destroyed. Case in point, Episode 5. Otherwise, I enjoyed the series for telling the truths of these films, very educational.
