Read on for stories of "Intervention" stars who sadly died. As per The Daily Beast, "Intervention" boasts "a 71 percent success rate in rehabbing the most determined, hardened addicts." However, relapse - and even death - are not uncommon when it comes to recovery, as not everybody overcomes their so-called "demons." And if they do, sometimes they're hit by another, totally unrelated tragedy. There's no escaping the positives, though: "Intervention" educates viewers about addiction and mental illness, it provides treatment for people who often couldn't afford it themselves, and the results are impressive. The Philadelphia Inquirer, for example, reports that local addiction specialists accused the series of sensationalizing Philly's opioid epidemic. And while on the whole, "Intervention" manages to balance documenting shocking circumstances with empathy and compassion, it's not without its detractors. The show's been accused of being exploitative, and given the drama and chaos that may accompany addiction and mental illness, any kind of coverage is likely to cause controversy.
