• Reviews

  "It isn't every day that drug addicts allow camera crews to film their private lives, and Intervention gives us an extraordinary, frightening look at what substance abuse and alcoholism can do to a person."'Blogcritics Magazine: TV Review: Intervention on A&E

  "Why I'm so compelled to watch people this troubled hit bottom—and I don't mean celebrities hooked on substances and hair extensions and teasing the paparazzi, I mean regular people who make regular incomes (or at least it seems they had regular incomes until booze or smack or barfing or coke took over)—is a mystery to me. I only know that Intervention is very, very addictive."Entertainment Weekly: Get hooked on A&E's Intervention
