As we mark the 30th anniversary of the tragedy that unfolded in Waco, Texas, it’s not surprising that there are a number of Waco documentaries, including Waco: American Apocalypse, that take a closer look at what happened when the Branch Davidian sect was in a standoff with federal authorities in 1993. Waco: The Aftermath is the sequel to the 2018 limited series Waco, and it paints a picture of what happened after the standoff ended.
The five-episode limited series is a dramatization of the aftermath of the tragedy, offering a look at what happened to the Branch Davidians who survived. The show also draws a line from Waco to the Oklahoma City bombing, and even the raid of the United States Capitol on January 6.
