As an avid true crime show viewer it's rare that I find one I genuinely don't like, but the director and the (annoying, distracting) sound person stepped up to the plate and whiffed big time here.
This was a slog to get through but I watched it all. After doing so, I wish I had that time back. The direction was horrible-- randomly jumping around in time for no reason and taking until the midpoint of the three episodes before the actual murder is detailed (and even then, it's almost a footnote in this strangely directed monstrosity).
Even worse was the noisetrack (soundtrack would be overly generous here), which was distracting and annoying at every turn. Seriously, it's as though the sound person had gotten a a big box of random sound effects from Temu and wanted to find a way to insert every single one of them into the three episodes. As bad as the direction was, the noisetrack was still worse.
I'm enough of a buff I could have watched three well done episodes on this case and maybe even have wanted more. But in this case, I should have turned it off after 20 minutes like I wanted to.
Don't waste your time.
