Season 1 (Mother T) was 5-star …
… but Season 2 (Balanchine) after fascinating introductory episodes seemed to become increasingly overwhelmed by wokey/PC concerns (Balanchine was racist and bad, he wasn’t a great artist because elitism is bad, beauty and skill is elitist and bad, etc.) and became nearly unlistenable to me toward the end without massive amounts of fast-forwarding. I skipped the lesbian episode entirely as I couldn’t take the echo chamber- preachiness at that point. I hope future seasons are as thoughtful, nuanced and mature as Season 1.

More reviews of The Turning: Room of Mirrors
Captivating, this stunningly well told story avoids the usual traps and presents a nuanced, in depth and meticulously researched look at Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity. Each episode reveals new layers and leaves one wanting more.

The story is compelling & well told but the editing is a hot mess. It repeats segments of like 15+ seconds & occasionally skips ahead so much that if becomes confusing. If you can deal with that it’s pretty great.

A well produced way to draw you in by people who didn’t have the integrity to do this while she was alive. How you can listen this as a critical thinker and still look yourself in the mirror, I have no idea.
