Season 1 Review:
This faltering start is unfortunate, because beginning with episode 2, the miniseries develops as an impressive work of investigation, victim advocacy and sandbagging. ... The “survivors” of Epstein’s exploitation aren’t always their own best witnesses. Director Bryant, who began this film a year before the final arrest of Epstein (which may explain the series’ structure), allows the young women to speak without interruption—not without editing, but without questions being posed during shooting.

Season 1 Review:
There’s indisputable value in giving voice to people who were rendered voiceless for most of their adult lives, and in letting them explain how the systems that were supposed to protect them repeatedly failed. But Filthy Rich also suffers from a lack of clarity, hovering over its primary subject rather than targeting its punches. The series is eminently watchable, and enraging. But it comes no closer to unraveling Epstein than any previous reportorial attempts have managed.
