The Psycho Series
From 2012 to 2016, Ridgway starred in The Psycho Series, in which he feuds with his “crazy” father and other members of his family.
Later, it was reported that the series was completely staged.
Viewers were so sure the series was real that after an episode in which Ridgway “murdered” his dad on camera and fleed to Switzerland, more than 1,000 911 calls were made regarding the “incident.”
”I never lied. I was playing a character. It was not myself,” Jesse explained in 2017. He added: ”It was acting. It was not a lie. I never lied. Never once… I don’t think there was anything wrong with it.”
Since the series ended, McJuggerNuggets’ channel has seen a notable views decline.

”Jesse and I broke up, but I have nothing but respect for Jesse,” Reilly said in a video.
”Just feeling like I need to say that. I know that he said that for me. We never had a huge bad bad blood kind of break-up, and I’m somebody that you know likes to keep things pretty personal, but I feel like that’s important to share. We didn’t have a bad break-up that we do not hate each other; we’re not gonna like curse each other out on social media; we’re both pretty real people, and I think you guys can see that.”
