FX has revealed the premiere date for their next highly anticipated series, which has established itself as one of the greatest names in dramatized and true-crime on-screen storytelling. Children of the Underground, the complex story of vigilante Faye Yager, will have its network premiere on August 12 and be live for streaming on Hulu the following day.
And if you assumed that because this was the debut, the next episode would be available the next week, FX knows better. On that Friday, all five episodes of the docuseries will be released, allowing you to watch them all without worrying about having to get to work the following morning.
The unimaginable true tale of child and mother advocate Yager, who made it her life’s work to get mothers and kids from supposedly violent homes removed off the grid and into safety, will be followed in Children of the Underground. Yager, who was charming and intelligent, was both a friend and an opponent.
While many people commended the victim’s rights advocate’s work, many others, including numerous people she aided, criticized the vigilante for interfering with police enforcement’s investigations. Yager’s influence would turn her into an adversary of the law enforcement authorities, who said that Yager’s involvement would frequently hamper the pursuit of justice.
When Yager helped the ex-wife and kids of a wealthy banker who had the means to take the truth seeker to court, the façade surrounding her quickly came tumbling down. Soon after, rumors began to spread that Yager was actually the child abuser herself and had done more harm than good.
Just wait if this wasn’t enough to get you interested in the impending docuseries. Due to the fact that most of Yager’s work was completed in the early stages of the Satanic Panic, several of her disgruntled customers have come out to accuse her of always seeking the devil’s work in everything, projecting some accusations of abuse onto a far more sinister power.
The interesting tale will be presented to viewers by Story Syndicate, a name that true-crime lovers will be familiar with as the production firm for the spooky HBO shows I’ll Be Gone in the Dark, Britney Vs. Spears, and Nuclear Family, all of which were created by Dan Cogan and Liz Garbus.
Along with Kate Barry, Gabriela Cowperthwaite, and Ted Gesing, Cogan and Garbus will serve as executive producers on the film Children of the Underground. As the director of the landmark documentary Blackfish from 2013, Cowperthwaite is well-known in the documentary world. Together with Gesing, she will helm the upcoming FX series.
Children of the Underground looks like it will follow in the footsteps of the several critically acclaimed true-crime documentaries and dramatized shows that FX is now home to.
