You can stream Shiny Happy People (2023) on Amazon Prime with a subscription.

A limited docuseries exposing the truth beneath the wholesome Americana surface of reality tv’s favorite mega-family, The Duggars, and the radical organization behind them: The Institute in Basic Life Principles. As 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.

A sense of profound unease settles in as the polished, wholesome veneer of a reality TV dynasty begins to crack. This investigation strips away the suburban perfection to reveal the rigid, controlling machinery of a fundamentalist cult.
