Wormwood

For anyone interested in MKUltra, or just looking for something interesting to watch... I was on Netflix earlier and saw a new docuseries called Wormwood. It details the death of CIA scientist Frank Olson, whose death was highly suspicious, labeled as "if he had fallen or jumped...". I've only seen the first episode so far, I believe there are six total. It's part documentary, where his son, Eric, talks about his life after his father's death and going down the rabbit hole trying to figure out what really happened, and what effect(s) it had on him and his family. I tried to find a source for it not related to Netflix but no luck thus far, if I do find one I'll post it on this thread...

Its very maudlin isn't it . I find the guy being interviewed waving his hands around all the time is annoying and the music is putting me to sleep. But it is interesting all the same. Up to episode 2 now.

I agree, the guy being interviewed - the son of Frank Olson, Eric Olson, - seems to be very monotone and repetitive in many of the things he says and motions on about. That part wasn't very interesting, but the story of his father and why he was eliminated.. it made me continue watching the series

I only finished episode 2 earlier today after watching the first one last night.. I couldn't really find myself intrigued enough last night to watch the second, and today I had to get off of Netflix and make myself study for finals tomorrow... master procrastinator :)

Yeah, it wasn't interesting enough to keep me for more than an episode at once, and going back to it wasn't much of a thrill either..
