I remember when all of Leona Helmsley's troubles were in the news. Fascinating to see the Helmsley Trump connection. Helmsley refusing to pay vendors and taxes...hm. The documentary makes note of the similarities between these two and asks if it is common in people of great wealth. Considering the news of today, this documentary is pretty timely.

Almost Half Good

The subjects should be easily interesting but the style and the performers undercut its own subjects.
Celebrities deaths and the aftermath of what happens to their fortunes and legacies should be fascinating. Then why did this series give us the most vapid gaping mouthed empty headed excuses for tabloid writers. Seriously, they talk with jaws dropping to the ground and eyebrows rubbing against their hairlines. And they don't seem to have a brain in their heads.
You will find yourself fast forwarding a lot. They tend to take three times longer to say something as an actual reporter and half the time they say nothing, or just the obvious.
