Docuseries Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets will screen on Prime Video in June.
The 4 part series exposes the truth beneath the wholesome Americana surface of reality TV mega-family, The Duggars, and the radically controversial organisation behind them: The Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP).
The Duggars featured in 19 Kids and Counting which screened in Australia on TLC. In 2015 the show was pulled following the admission by 27 year old cast member Josh Duggar that he molested several underage girls 12 years ago, including his sisters.
A number of ex-IBLP survivors bravely come forward and reveal the abusive practices that kept them in a living nightmare. For the first time, Jill Duggar Dillard will go on the record with her own story and be joined by family and close family friends who witnessed what went on behind the scenes firsthand. While details of the family and their scandals unfold, we realize they’re part of an insidious, much-larger threat already in motion, with democracy itself in peril.
The series is a production of Amazon Studios, The Cinemart, Story Force, and Chick Entertainment. Julia Willoughby Nason and Olivia Crist direct and executive produce, alongside Mike Gasparro, Blye Pagon Faust, Cori Shepherd Stern, Jody McVeigh-Schultz, and Jenner Furst.
Four episodes Friday June 2 on Prime Video.
