When after 10 minutes you realise the "shock main guest" is potentially someone who ended the man's life, I feel entertainment hits really murky waters. The woman does herself no favours, she's so cold, she remembers the practiced words to look loving but she's about as uncaring as satan.

The story itself is interesting, I know a lot about the different strokes years and all the troubles for all 3 kids, like his ex wife I felt Howard Sterns show and callers were the last straw for poor Dana Plato who was manipulated for her looks and lived an awful drug riddled existence till age 34. Willis although looking well and caring, had some dark times,

But Gary had a life of misery really, from pain and poor health, to a helping drug literally killing your growth and puffing your cheeks out, it sounds like a marvel film making the hero, it gave him an iconic run on two shows, which haunted his existence and to which he got no money from.

Gary desperately looked everywhere for love and was obviously intense, none of the relationships seemed organic or healthy, only a few friends seemed what you'd expect, the blockbuster employee and his manager were the only two who cared.

He was wired differently and wasn't into the physical but due to his rotten parents stealing all his money and acting stupid, he had scars ontop of scars. The parents knew, the dad taking about demons, guy seemed insane, the lies were easily see through, amazed they got away with it all, I know the later case but don't think it helped.

From then in it's just the cold dead eyed wife, no one heart no compassion and no one to advise her how bad she looks doing this. That 911 call summed it up, poor guy died from hate, when all he wanted was love.

Best kid actor ever Iconic show Tragic end.

I've read about Gary Coleman throughout the years, but never had much interest in him, and never watched his TV show. Thus, I did not know if I would watch this entire documentary. I ended up having no problem watching it until the end. The doc moved along nicely and wasn't repetitious. It does offer some good insight into his life, but not enough to make it more than a sympathetic look, lacking in critical observations.

For example, why did Gary Coleman choose to marry the woman he married and still live with her after they divorced? She was a not-too-bright user who hit him, just as he hit her. With his fame and medical condition, he could have easily found a kind, nurturing woman, such as a nurse, to marry; who would have dedicated her life to supporting and taking care of him. Did he want to keep feeling like a victim, and replay over and over again the way he felt others used him?

His parents were interviewed and they weren't portrayed as the demons some think they were. His first agent was interviewed and he also did not come across badly. His best friend was constantly interviewed, and there seemed nothing nefarious about their friendship, even though his father had his suspicions. The only one who came across badly was his ex-wife, but I somewhat doubt she was responsible for his death. The two of them were a trainwreck waiting to happen, and you don't need a person to cause a trainwreck.
