Reviews.
Allison Keene of "The Hollywood Reporter" describes the series: "This series... seems born from a genuine place, which deserves some credit. It's refreshing in its lack of snark, and even though there are many unintentionally hilarious moments... it's not the exploitation TV that is rampant in the current documentary scene."
