Super disappointed. Synanon has SO much more influence on society than this doc demonstrates. Zero mention of how the downstream effects of Synanon via attack therapy (the game/the trip) practices are still commonly used today. Sort of another cookie cutter cult documentary that is the same as the rest (starts maybe beneficial , cracks develop, egomaniac takes over, violence/abuse ensues)... feels like just a profit based attempt to copy Wild Wild West with another cult. Unfortunately, its short sighted, and because of that irrelevant and nothing new. Honestly feel like they just took The Sunshine Place podcast and made it a TV series. Huge missed opportunity especially when they could of rode the coattails of "The Program" (netflix) just having recently come out. Instead another whacky egomaniac bio that only furthers it from the TTI industry and the REAL millions of victims from The Game and The Trips.
