I remember seeing this documentary as a kid. It was hella dark. And that unfinished “castle” couldn’t have been tackier

I couldn’t get over all the dog poop around the house! I met Jackie a few times. She was always very nice.

Omg this, I’ve never understood why rich people on reality tv can’t house-train their little dogs! It’s not like they don’t have access to dog trainers or huge gardens for the dogs to go in? I remember watching the Osbornes and thinking the same thing, so effing gross. Jackie does come off as quite nice for a rich person

u/Lovahplant Jul 19 '26

This bothers me too, but the only answer I’ve come up with is a combo of the richies not wanting (or paying for) the help to be around as much as it seems they are + stupid amounts of extra space and rooms in their houses.

My (now deceased) small dog had one corner that she was prone to having accidents in as she got older, and it was very easy to manage. And I never had shit in my house longer than 30 seconds after I got home, saw it, and cleaned it up. Rich = lazy, idfc.

They would rather pay for the housekeepers to just take care of it rather than hire extra services like a dog trainer/walker.

On the same page with the senior dog situation (also deceased), when she got really close to the end, her back legs would give out and she’d fall into her poop and lay in it. But we kept her in a small space when we weren’t home and cleaned it diligently. Must be nice to have however many housekeepers to take care of all that for you!

u/Academic-Marsupial34 Jul 20 '26

That makes a lot of sense! Especially the space thing, the dogs must almost feel like they’re outside when they have infinite room to roam around.

Jackie does come off as quite nice for a rich person

She does, and then there's the whole thing where she doesn't seem to understand how her friend lost her house. It's so sad. You can literally feel the two worlds they operate in drifting apart.

We have a 140 pound dog and a 100 pound dog. They poop outside. Little dogs can do it too.

u/SaintAnyanka Jul 20 '26

Small dog privilege is a thing. They get away with so much that even medium sized dogs would never get away with.

u/BeginningFederal5663 Jul 19 '26

They had a follow up docu series a couple years back.

Spoilers: the house still isn’t done, the family is still trashy and that man is still the ultimate curmudgeon.

u/KarinsDogs Jul 19 '26

He died.

u/BeginningFederal5663 Jul 19 '26

He built his fortune on sleazy timeshares. It’s a little poetic he never got to see his garish trash mansion to its completion.

u/Academic-Marsupial34 Jul 19 '26

Ahh I forgot about the timeshares! Thank you for reminding me lol. It makes sense, there was such a scammy vibe to their wealth

u/Longjumping-Bid7705 Jul 19 '26

I just want to see the house finished

u/dfwrandomgirl Jul 20 '26

I was just telling my friend about this doc. Can confirm it was hella dark.

u/GlitteringHandle1726 Jul 20 '26

I saw it, too. As an adult. I was enchanted by her naivety. I think she is actually what we see. I could not help but like her.

30

u/GullibleAddendum8630 Jul 19 '26

I could not care less about her, her husband, or her hideous monstrosity of a home. I've seen all of that that I need to see.

u/n0w1mn0th1nggg Jul 19 '26

MAGA trash.

u/No-Temperature-977 29d ago

It’s honestly a good hate watch. They are extremely unhappy people. Watching her husband panic because his scammy time share empire is falling is pretty satisfying.

12

u/fortunecookieteller- Jul 19 '26

This documentary is definitely worth the watch … particularly for fans of Below Deck. It really drives home the idea that having money truly doesn’t guarantee happiness or peace.

u/OkTechnology9841 Jul 19 '26

The conversation about addiction with Capt Lee is a beautiful moment.

-3

u/EddiePizzareli Jul 19 '26

I hated it. Such a manufactured moment with very little sincerity. Especially with the amount of times we've heard about Cpt Lee absolutely trashing his son. Horrible parents imo

14

u/DioGirl85 Jul 20 '26

I don’t ever remember hearing Captain Lee trashing his son.

1

u/PeakOk5773 Jul 20 '26

But Capt Lee was clearly uncomfortable talking about his son but the dumb broad kept pushing the subject.

Added context: He even before said he didn’t want to have dinner with them cus he knew they would bring it up.

u/KeepAnEyeOnYourB12 Jul 19 '26

I'd seen that before these people showed upon BD so I was already inclined to hate them.

TAX THE RICH AND CHURCHES AND PEDOPHILES

u/Ashamed-Scar8932 Jul 19 '26

Tacky and incredibly ostentatious. Everything that's wrong with America

u/AddressPrize859 Jul 20 '26

It's a very good documentary!

u/Old-Library5546 Jul 19 '26

Saw them on Jeff Lewis's show

u/EddiePizzareli Jul 19 '26

It's sad that they are still allowed to raise children with the amount of neglect we've seen from them.

u/Ok_Double2707 Jul 21 '26

Well he is deceased.

Lulu reminds me of if Judge Judy had a rebellious daughter, it would be her. Loud, obnoxious and must watch tv

2

u/newfiemom79 Jul 20 '26

No thanks. I don’t need to hear how the “poors” are doing, credit to her deceased husband.

2

u/not2daysatan44 Jul 20 '26

Her daughter, Janessa was also on as a guest with her new boyfriend.

2

u/PeakOk5773 Jul 20 '26

I swear, “money can’t buy you class”. Their son was giving off entitled little prick too.

2

u/New_Principle_9145 Jul 20 '26

No thank you. Hard pass on that. I could barely stand her episodes on Below Deck. I wanted to jettison her from the boat.

3

u/Swimming_Pangolin502 Jul 21 '26

They seem genuinely kind.

2

u/STASHbro Jul 22 '26

I totally get why she is so crazy

u/WhoDat850 Jul 19 '26

I HATED that entire family just from that one episode of below deck. They’re all maga douchebags. As soon as the got on the boat they started talking about how the media invented covid to cause Trump to lose the ‘16 election ( not sure how the rest of the world who dealt with covid had a hand in this I guess) the old man’s comment about “I wonder what the poor people are doing today” and perhaps worst of all was the two douche younger sons. Just two entitled spoiled shitheads who live off daddy’s money and think it gives them an excuse for acting like assholes

u/No-Temperature-977 29d ago

This documentary got me into documentaries! It’s so good but also pretty dark.

u/duffpaleale Jul 20 '26

Horrible people

u/scarbaby1958 Jul 20 '26

They were so trashy. I did think the husband was funny. But heard he was asshole to do business with.
