What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are pretty split on this true crime re-examination series, with most feeling it's just okay or frustrating. The cases themselves, like Brad McGarry's murder or the Murdaugh saga, are compelling, but a lot of viewers find the storytelling flat and the pacing drags, making it feel like a rerun with little new insight. It's a decent enough watch if you're deeply into the genre, but it often fails to deliver the fresh perspective it promises.
