Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath

Hands down one of the best documentaries I have seen in a very very long time. My heart bleeds for those poor people who managed to escape. America seriously needs to consider reforming their religion policies. The documentary is detailed and full of information. Each episode is very good. Not one episode did my mind wander off. She manages to keep you glued to the screen to the very end. Every time an episode ends I cant wait for the next one. Even if you are not a documentary person you will enjoy this! Well done A&E, Leah Remini and all the people involved for giving the public a top quality documentary exposing these scientology fraudsters!

This is hands down, one of the best documentaries that I have ever seen. She is revealing the sick and demented brain washing that is Scientology. I never realized it was as controlling as it is but it explains a lot. It is no wonder Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman had to jump through so many hoops when they left Tom Cruise. Remini is there to explain a lot of Scientology terms but for the most part she just let's the people tell their story. The church is revealed as a true, blue cult. No wonder the church is so mad at her. What makes this docuseries so relevant is the fact Remini was actually a member of the church for many years as were all of the people they interviewed. That gives it more credibility. This was very well produced and incredibly interesting.

All who watched this series must be ENRAGED! It's a DISGUSTING TRAVESTY/CRIME that the GOV'T, not only continues to give them TAX EXEMPT status, but hasn't SHUT THIS CULT DOWN!!!! WHO'S BEING PAID OFF ????? Does Scientology have DIRT on the IRS ??? We should ALL call our Congress and Senate Representatives, as well as local authorities and STOP the ABUSE and UTTER DESTRUCTION of the lives of all of the CHILDREN and ADULTS, who are caught in Scientology's Web of TORTURE!!!

PURE EVIL !!!

Each episode my opinion of Leah Remini continues to grow. She is taking a very personal aspect of a part of her life and opening it up to public knowledge and possible ridicule in an attempt to get information to the public on what really goes on behind the secretive doors of the so-called "church" of scientology. It is heartbreaking to see how this organization is tearing families apart. There have now been, in the last decade, several documentaries and books released in an attempt to educate the public on scientology. The one common factor seems to be the fact that this "church" refuses to sit down and answer questions or debate - anyone. They continue to refuse cameras inside all these properties. Anyone who is walking in truth is never afraid to stand in the light. The series is very well produced. The interviews with the folks who have had to make the heartbreaking decision to leave, knowing their family members will be put under horrific pressure to not have anything to do with them any longer are so hard to hear. I hope that enough is brought forward so that law enforcement can research into the physical abuse end at least. The series is much like hearing about the poor women and children in some of the FLDS situations. They seem trapped. I admire what Leah Remini is trying to accomplish and hope her show can help some of these families.

A truly impactful series that all should watch, regardless of religious background or belief.

This series exposes what occurs when a radical cult, and that is fundamentally what Scientology is, grows and morphs into a billion dollar industry.

Whereas Waco, and many others,eventually suffocated under gunfire and casualties, Scientology appears exempt from the reach of both US taxation and legislative arms.

Leah Remini, after three decades as a loyal and devout Scientology member, now relentlessly campaigns against the religion, interviewing many former high ranking Scientologists that have escaped its clutches.

Disturbing, emotional, frustrating and deeply engaging; watch it and learn.
