McMillions

I thoroughly enjoyed McMillions. Unlike some other reviewers, I didn't find it overly long, and liked learning about the participants' backgrounds-it helps explain why they may have been motivated to get in on this thing. I especially liked the single mom with the little boy. When she described having to remortgage her house to get $50K for the dude to get his cut-*before* she even got a penny of her 'winnings'-WOW. I actually felt afraid for her. There was definitely a sinister, scary undertone here. Everyone interviewed was articulate and interesting, some more likable than others. Again, unlike some other reviews, I looked forward to the scenes with Doug Mathews-he's funny and charming and obviously clever and good at his job. All in all, it was entertaining, alternating between comical and creepy. A solid 8

The writers of this documentary are good and make the story entertaining, and not boring.

Couldn't they have referred to one Jerry as "Jacobson" and the other as "Colombo?" So frickin confusing!!!

Interesting story but it could've been told in half the time. I think I'll just wait for the last episode.

Yes, it could have been done in an hour,,, But don't you love the interviews, the suspense, the old videos?? I do. I'm loving the explanations and details because honestly I was too young to even pay attention at that moment about all the buzz. An increible story, for sure!
