Storyline
Featured review
Warning;, between the eldest daughter's voice is nails-on-a-blackboard, same the people are very tacky. If you're epileptic, be careful
Ok, in a nutshell, a woman's supposedly committed suicide, according to the police.
This story's 'other' story is by far the more intriguing one, and the part which I couldn't NOT pay attention to.
The woman who's dead - JoAnn, has 3 kids. They - 3, though you only see 2, are the freak show.
The one who's the oldest (she says she was 29 when this happened - about a decade ago, but her voice - which is a perfect i.e. Nauseating version of vocal fry (a nasal whine) and skin (slightly better than a leather wallet, i.e. Not doing well ๐ฉ) are in a bizarre contrast to the fact that she's now in her late 30s, AND her ADULT siblings ALL still live together (they used to live at/with their decreased mom). The middle daughter's got a serious work issue. The third - the 'youngest' (he'd now be in good late 20s) is either retreaded, or emotionally a child, but you never see him.
It's as if they were so coddled (not a good thing) they can't grow up.
Between the oldest's constant label-dropping ('my mom's Lexus... her designer purse...๐ซ' I was sick), as well as HER 'deductions' ('to me that's an important clue', she says about her mother's hideous 'designer' purse which had rips, AND the camera lingering as she picks schmutz off it, JUST as she whines how they never collected DNA.
. I'm sorry, but I'd keep all these 'clues' in SEALED bags to prevent any further contamination in the hopes that someone someday night be able to find usable information), found myself getting queasy watching this.
Oldest daughter keeps hiring people to 'investigate' (how about finding just ONE and key them do that?!) Also, they're not what I'd refer to as rich-rich, but I doubt anyone of this trio works, and their 'wealth' seems to me to be both questionable and nouveau (the woman's brother, John's shot in - I'm guessing - his (idea of a 'gentleman's') den. There's 2 safe's seen behind him - the kind with temperature/humidity guages, like a combo humidor/money vault. It's all tacky. They're tacky, the presentation of the deceased is tacky.
These are people I really would never want near me.
Yes, the proper thing's to 'be respectful of the dead', but I don't know these people, thank goodness, and this is a 'review', and though this 'review' is definitely not your typical review, this episode and these people are so painful, I've only got to the midpoint, ama I don't know if I'm able to watch any more.
