The veil is going to be lifted again, but Duggar News followers shouldn’t be expecting the same storm from Shiny Happy People this time! Well, Prime Video has officially announced Season 2 of “Shiny Happy People,” but this doesn’t mean that the second season will also focus on exposing the Duggars and their culture.
Something new is coming up, and Season 2 has a completely new track, unlike the first one. This one is also going to have some shocking aspects, but in an entirely new way. Is this true? What is this all about? What will it feature? Will the Duggars make a comeback? Keep on reading to learn more about this controversy.
Duggar News: Shiny Happy People Season 1 Exposed Duggars
Duggar News fans began collecting their dropped jaws as soon as they saw the trailer for Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets for the first time. Apparently, it exposed some shocking dark truths about the Institute in Basic Life Principles, or IBLP, which is the belief system of the Duggars.
Jill Duggar took center stage to talk about her family, and the show discussed how this belief system was raising “predators.” It also featured Josh Duggar’s CSAM and molestation case, along with how gendered norms are instilled in everyone who is part of this system. All of this completely shook the lives of the Duggars and changed the dynamics.
Duggar News: Shiny Happy People Season 2 Is NOT About The Duggar Family
Duggar News followers have been eagerly waiting for Shiny Happy People Season 2, and the network has finally announced its premiere date. However, it seems that this edition is not going to serve any kind of Duggar drama at all. This is because this season is completely based on Evangelical teen pop culture.
Apparently, Evangelical teen pop culture began rising in America during the 1990s and ’00s. The film will feature Teen Mania, which is basically the largest youth ministry in the United States. Hence, it will shed light on how fundamentalist Christian groups have used music and mass events to sway teenagers. It would document the way “swear purity oaths” were actually influencing students and teenagers.
The synopsis of the documentary hinted that it would feature some “culturally questionable global missions.” It stated that there was a “darker undercurrent” beneath the “wholesome youth group illusion.” It further involves the high pressure of some kinds of “brutal spiritual boot camps” and is much more related to “relentless psychological control.”
The documentary would reflect on how all of this was done under the “command of a charismatic leader” with endless ambitions that were expanding to another level. This makes it clear that the focus of Shiny Happy People was no longer the Duggars and their belief system. Hence, they wouldn’t be making a comeback in Season 2.
