Has Anyone Seen the New HBO Documentary TV Junkie?
Question by Me: Has anyone seen the new HBO documentary TV Junkie?
It was so depressing! I thought it was a really good documentary. The scenes with his little boy in them were some of the most disturbing scenes I have ever seen!
“Assembled from the more than 3,000 hours of footage shot by Kirkham himself, TV Junkie focuses on a seven-year period in which Kirkham says he used drugs about three times a week. Between stints in rehab, Kirkham’s life unravels like a slow- motion train wreck: He loses his career, family and almost his life in an attempted suicide before getting clean and speaking publicly about the perils of addiction. ”
