This would have been great if any of the participants had a willingness to admit their responsibility over their actions. Instead of that, we spend 9 hours watching a bunch of self-absorbed assholes victimize themselves and lay it all on one man. The end product feels like it's a save-face documentary for the filmmakers rather than an exposé of a cult.

@redouaaane I feel like you missed the fact that the participants in this series had nothing to do with the actual production. The actual filmmakers are not featured in the series. However, they do follow Mark Vicente who happens to be a filmmaker. Also, the people in the series explain on several occasions that their motivation on getting as many people out as possible, is because they feel incredibly guilty for recruiting so many in the first place. That seems to me like a "willingness to admit their responsibility over their actions"...
The fact it’s been out for 20 straight years is also kind of the reason not to watch it as there’s 900 episodes, I don’t understand how a regular person with school or a job can be up to date with one piece

@kieranlittleuk my case: i watched it in the bus, one before going to sleep, and sometimes, if I was alone, while I ate. Of course it takes months but you finally get there and is super rewarding
