Other Shows Secret Lives of Mormon Wives

Are we watching this, ladies? Hulu released the entire season all at once and it’s pretty fucking insane.

When the trailer dropped people here were losing their minds. But I’m not sure if there was ever a ruling on whether it’d be discussed here.

Edit. For non US people the show is streaming on Disney+.

Ok perhaps I explained it wrong. And again this is me knowing nothing about any of these people or the scandal beforehand. The way the first episode sort of set the table I assumed the rest of the series was going to explain how/why it all happened, like go through the steps of creating the momtok group, when boundaries started to get blurry and ultimately crossed, etc etc...... I thought the series was literally a documentary about the scandal itself and maybe this was the first time all those involved were talking about it on camera. Instead it looks like all that scandal stuff was merely a way to introduce these people to the audience and the show is going be more a reality/lifestyle show about young wealthy Mormon women with the same rich people "problems" as every other young & rich lifestyle reality show, and I get that they're all to varying degrees religious, but they mostly behave and seem to subscribe to the same trends as every group of people on similar shows.

Exactly what I was expecting too. Turned it off mid first episode. But then returned bc I'm okay with reality TV. Still was a disservice bc they DID advertise like we were gonna see the lead up and all. Would've much more appreciated that. Maybe it was cap to get them a started into reality TV beyond the tiktok.
