"There’s a sober quality to Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey that sets it apart from the salivating norm of true crime docuseries."

—

San Francisco Chronicle

"A masterful, engrossing and at times chilling series that plays out like a real-life horror movie..."

—

Chicago Sun-Times

"Keep Sweet does a workmanlike but effective job of laying out the case against Jeffs."

—

Decider

"Though (it) is extremely hard to watch at times, the first-hand accounts from survivors are nothing short of awe-inspiring."

—

Entertainment Weekly

"Keep Sweet is occasionally guilty of veering too far into the weeds of individual stories and engages in some sleazy flourishes... that don't belong in a serious documentary."
