Tilton's ministry fell into precipitous decline when Creator/{{ABC}} aired an investigative report in 1991 called "The Apple of God's Eye", which claimed that Tilton was enjoying an obscenely lavish lifestyle at the expense of his viewers. Their most damning revelation was that Tilton's ministry was ''throwing prayer requests in the garbage'' after taking out the money donated as part of those requests. As you can imagine, many of Tilton's followers were ''pissed'' following the report, to the point that a number of former followers filed lawsuits against him. Even though the lawsuits were ultimately dismissed or overturned, the publicity was bad enough that ''Success-N-Life'' went off the air less than two years after the ABC broadcast.
