A&E Series Wades Into Scientology

Oct 28, 2016  •  Post A Comment

A new series premiering next month on A&E examines the Church of Scientology, focusing on the turbulent departure from the church by actress Leah Remini.

The eight-episode docuseries, “Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath,” debuts Tuesday, Nov. 29. Remini, who starred on “The King of Queens” from 1998-2007, made headlines with her departure from Scientology in 2013.

Remini published the memoir “Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology” a year ago, and is an executive producer on the one-hour docuseries.

The project features former high-level Scientology executives and church members, and “delves deep into shocking stories of abuse, heartbreak and harassment experienced by those who have left the church and spoken publicly about their experiences,” A&E says in a press release.
