Reviews

countys32 My main issue with this series is that none of the episodes have a conclusion, the crimes are left unsolved which kind of defeats the purpose of a show like this.This sort of story telling will leave you frustrated and ultimately make you watch a much better show like Homicide Hunter: Lt. Joe Kenda.Having said that this might suit some viewers, so it would be worth watching a few episodes if you love crime series to see if it's your cuppa tea.
Breitschleif I'll keep it short: If you are a fan of the True Crime genre you will probably like this series. It follows "the usual patterns" and executes the documentation and narrative quite well. It is nothing "special" but definitely one of the better shows of this kind I have seen in a while.Unfortunately a few of the cases have already been documented/discussed in a lot of detail on other shows, but there are quite a few which I have never heard of before.If you are done watching "The Jinx", "Making a Murderer" and I guess "The Killing Season" and liked those shows you will find some entertainment in this one, too.Overall i would recommend it, 7/10.
