Evil Genius

Note to self: form production company and make docuseries for Netflix. Focus on crimes, scandals, riveting mysteries and strange events from two or three decades ago. Characters should be engaging: weird, driven, frightening. Pose mysteries and offer conflicting narratives that force viewer to choose whom to believe or trust. Resolve some puzzles but leave alone those that have no resolution. Provide alternative explanations and perspectives so a covey of home viewers binging together can argue their conclusions. Audiences should say at end: "I can't believe I never heard about that.." For guidance on Netflix signature style, see The Keepers, Wild, Wild Country and the latest:Evil Genius. The latter grabs your interest in the first five minutes, leads you through one bizarre crime and aftermath, a oouple of very smart and very dangerous characters, some very likeable agents and police and your usual cast of low lives and margin dwellers. And in the end, abiding amazement how really smart people can do really evil things.
