Meet Marry Murder

Commenting here only to warn those who have been in any form of abusive relationships.

Unfortunately, of the two episodes I watched, there was significant ignorance in the professionals interviewed in their understanding of abusive relationships. In particular, why the victims stay. They appear to be looking for logical reasons rather than understanding the manipulation and the extremely damaging effects it can cause.

This series appears to be for titillation rather than education or to better the poor situations so many find themselves in, through no fault of their own. Go ahead and watch but please don't use this as an example of how victims should be spoken of.

One involved person says something then the next says the same, in only slightly different words. They even repeat some clips. Could have easily been 20 min episodes.

From reading the other reviews, I would say they are not true aficianados of the genre. Michelle Trachtenberg is terrible, though. Her makeup and wardrobe for the show make her look old and weird. And whoever scripted her dialogue has no compassion for the families involved. But the stories themselves are at least some I haven't seen before. And the telling of the tales is credible and adequate. There are too many different "experts" per episode, though. The show should have taken more time to look at the unfolding of events rather than analyzing what might have been going on in people's heads. The episode "Cheater's Collision Course" is the best.

I've been watching this on YouTube. I like it. But have to take breaks because of it being so disturbing. But I guess I've watched all the ones on YouTube. Which is also disturbing. I just wondered if they were making anymore of them.

Why they've decided to ham up the amateur dramatics I have no idea, it's absolutely ruined the watchability this series had. As others have said it's always been a bit dry due to the constant repetition, waxing lyrical with minimal info and acting like they know the fine details of what went on, plus that each episode has max 2 photos they re-use every 5 minutes. However I used to be able to enjoy watching it before they made it so dramatic and got people to act. Hoping this is a one off and they go back to the normal format next season, as it's pretty painful watching and really not enjoyable.
