Escaping Polygamy debuts four all-new episodes beginning April 1 at 10 PM ET/PT on Lifetime. Following three sisters, Andrea, Jessica and Shanell, who daringly escaped polygamy in their youth, and newcomer Rachel Jeffs, daughter of notorious Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) leader and prophet, Warren Jeffs, they band together to help young women escape the tight grips of Warren’s cult.
The sisters’ first-hand knowledge of the struggle to leave polygamy make them the perfect advocates to help others escape, but their missions are often riddled with danger by those faithful to the religion. Those who dare to leave, face challenging emotional obstacles like returning back to the cult they escaped. But with the continued support and guidance of the sisters, those that escape are able to rebuild their lives to create a new sense of family.
Featured in these new episodes include a member attempting to find her long-lost mother that the church tore away from her as a child; a sister desperately wanting freedom and the ability to finally make decisions for herself; and a young woman trapped inside a “house of repentance” following an illicit and forbidden affair between cousins.
Escaping Polygamy is produced by RIVR Media. Executive producers for RIVR Media are Dee Haslam, Rob Lundgren, and Lori Stryer. Shura Davison, Brie Miranda Bryant and Gena McCarthy serves as executive producers for Lifetime.”
What do you think? Have you seen Escaping Polygamy? Will you watch the new episodes?
Is this show back on or no?
Love the Show. I hope Escaping Polygamy renews every season so more and more people will see that they can leave the cult.
I will absolutely be watching!
Love the show. Waiting for more.
Yes. I love the show. Waiting for more.
I did a power watch of all the episodes this week and was amazed on how these girls saved so many lives. I was on my seat on every episode and hope they continue the work and hope to see more on Lifetime. I am hooked and may God continue to guide the and bless them on their journey
It is mind boggling that in this day and age this sort of lifestyle still exists. I love this show and am so proud of these girls for the work they have done for others. I hope that this show continues and isn’t cancelled anytime soon. People need to be educated that this sort of thing still happens and that there are many more young people that need help. Way to go ladies….keep up the great work!
We love the show. I’ve been to SLC several times. I have a friend there that is a “jack” Mormon. He mocks the whole Mormon lifestyle.
My question is… how do these perverts get away w/ this ?? It’s against the law. Children abused. Why is it ignored? This show should help!? Is the Utah political system & law enforcement bought off?
I’m so proud of the young ladies courage & the true heart in helping those wanting to escape polygamy. I lived in SLC for 8 yrs as a Christian & wasn’t received in the community for the first few years there. My son is still there- going 13yrs. My heart goes out to all of the Escaping Polygamy program. I would certainly want to be involved in their cause if I still lived there.
I love this show and admire the sisters for their hard work and determination. Also, the security people deserve some recognition. You are all doing amazing things.
I watch this show all the time!! We need more new episodes!
I absolutely LOVE this show but was definitely not happy about the last few shows that were on!!!
I thought it was going to be a whole entire season…..
I feel cheated with this series this year. They say 4 new episodes but that is deceiving because a few of them were the same show with “enhanced scenes “. People aren’t stupid. I love this show and myself and about 40 people I know feel the same. If it’s 4 episodes, it should be new!!!
I don’t understand I thought a whole new season was coming out, it was only 4 episodes ?!
I love escaping polygamy giving kids a chance for a normal life
I love watching this show. It’s so hard to believe people actually live this way. I hope it doesn’t get canceled at any time.
