Forensic Files II

Peter Thomas is Dead. So he can't narrating from the the grave people. I read a lot of the reviews and I saw that people are not aware about that. It was different in the beginning without him but it's getting better and I am used to the the new narrator. I like it and I am still learning a lot of forensic techniques that is very impressive! I am glad that the show is back and I can see new cases! Thank you HLM for bringing back with new cases. I always like the format of the show because it tells the story in 30 min and it's not dragging.

It takes from the show listening to his voice! I'm so annoyed I can't follow the plot. Sounds like he just smoked a joint!

Ruining the show! Interview new people!

This is not meant to insult the new narrator, but it's not the same without Peter Thomas. His voice was so smooth, and his style so recognizable. The new narrator simply lacks that "something", making watching this new version a bit strained and simply not as enjoyable. While the true crime stories are still interesting, what really made this show special was the voice of Peter Thomas. In my opinion, Mr. Thomas, along with Gene Galusha from "The New Detectives", and Bill Kurtis from "American Justice" and "Cold Case Files" are the absolute BEST true crime narrator's. They each possessed a unique voice that just brings the story they are telling alive. I just think that the producer's of FF2 should have tried to find a narrator with at least a similar vocal inflection and style as close as possible to Peter Thomas.

He has a different voice...that can't be helped. But it sounds like he tries to use the same inflections etc. as Peter Thomas. And there never will be another Peter Thomas. Honestly, I go to sleep with the Forensic Files on, and hearing the transition between Thomas and Camp isn't jarring.

My biggest peeve is that, after all of the hype, they kind of just fold the new episodes into the old. And they are exactly the same. I am waiting for newer cases and more "cutting edge" forensic advancements that have been made since the original series stopped production.

EDIT: I was probably too hard on Bill Camps narration. After a few more shows I realized I was comparing him too much to Peter Thomas. Camp is alright and he'll get better. This is a THE forensic science show just as it always has been.

I loved Forensic Files when Peter Thomas narrated it and still do and I was really looking forward to Forensic Files II only to be massively disappointed by the campy voice of Bill Camp. You can just picture him holding one hand over his ear talking into a large diaphragm microphone wearing a scarf with a feature in his hat. It's as if he thinks he's got "THE" voice.

Camp does NOT have the voice and pales in comparison to Peter Thomas's quality and moving narration. Camp would be better suited reading children's books to preschoolers somewhere far from a microphone!

Other narrators also damaged the original FF once Peter Thomas passed but none were as bad as Bill Camp

Otherwise the show is great in terms of content, they just need to fix it by finding someone who can actually talk like an adult to adults interested in forensic science
