Amish Mafia (2012)
You will Love this show
I keep reading the above reviews about there not being a real Lancaster county Pa police dept. and these are fake actors, NOT. If you look these people up online you will see that they have criminal records and that there is indeed a Lancaster County Police Dept. with mugshots and all. There are even News Stations reporting the arrest of the "Black Amish" Alan Beiler. Much of this show is reality and you will see that the church and the Bishops dole out there own justice and do depend on Amish Aid which is there own type of insurance when things get broken and the like. The kids do keep much from their parents and do all the hut parties, have sex, own and ride in cars like English during what is called Rumspringa, which translates to running around. I saw a documentary on this and I wish I could remember the name of it, but I am sure you can google plenty on the Amish and Rumspringa and what happens during that time. They act like regular teens in America and experiment with everything from drugs to sex and rock and roll. So, that being said, I believe that the show is for the most part a true portrayal of the Amish. I believe that the Amish Church is powerful and will shun you if you brake their rules and they find out about it. But, as with any other religion certain illegal, immoral, and down right ungodly behavior is totally overlooked for the sake of the church and the almighty dollar. If you want to see what the dirty side of the Amish Community is like, that is what you are going to get with this show. Lots of weird excitement and I say weird because when you have so many church rules crammed down your throat your eventually going to regurgitate and when you do it is fun to watch. The characters seem real enough to me. Your gonna love it. I gave it a 10 to get the reviews up so more people would watch and because I just absolutely love this show and their characters. All reality TV is faked somewhat but so what! See for yourself what the Church really tolerates and how hypocritical the Bishops are and how they and the characters twist the bible for their own gains.
Long Island Medium (2010)
This is a fantastic show so why the low reviews?
This show had me fascinated. I was laughing, crying and experiencing the full range of emotions when she spoke with the people that had passed. The Medium has a great sense of humor and feels compelled to tell anyone that she meets the truth about a loved one that has passed. People that are not believers soon become believers. This is a terrific show about helping people to heal after a loved one has passed. Something that stuck with me after one of her readings was "There is a heaven". It gave me a great sense of relief as even though I believe, there is always a twinge of doubt. No more. Give this show a try, I do think you will love it as much as I do. I just don't think that the people that watched it voted.
