Dateline

I love a great podcast and Dateline is a great one! I don't have the time to sit and watch the broadcast but I'll listen to the podcast all day. Andrea Canning's singsong voice and absolutely stupid interview questions makes my ears bleed, though. How she's still interviewing people is beyond me. I skip all of the Andrea Canning episodes. But I love Keith Morrison and Josh Mankiewicz. They are great narrators and interviewers.

I understand the frustration with the subscription cost and I'll probably get rid of it, especially since the other podcasts I was promised are only a few episodes long.

Dateline just isn't the same as it used to be. And why do they show the hosts profiles?? This is irritating, I don't want to see the side of their faces!

Since 1992 the news program "Dateline" has been a peacock mainstay changing over the years with different hosts now Lester Holt does the duties. Each week each episode is in depth with great reporting from top "NBC" anchors as the cases shown are real life, often featuring murders, love triangles, and cold cases that have been cracked with some unsolved mysteries are also showcased. The research done on each story is informative and really in depth as it's like a case timeline supported by news footage, and interviews with family members and officials involved. The stories are often heart touching and filled with emotions as you the viewer will soak up the informative real life drama and fill for all involved. Overall well done investigative news program.

It's a great show, predictable sometimes but engaging. Keith Morrison is a true legend. He makes any story sounds more interesting! Josh Mankiewicz and Dennis Murphy are also great. However, I can't stand Andrea Canning. She doesn't let the people she interviews talk! She interrupts them or makes stupid comments like "You must have been so shocked seeing your mother lying there bleeding from a gunshot wound!" She basically tells the story and waits for the other person to say yes or no. Or she asks questions like this : "You go into the house and you found a cup. Did you think it was as the killer's?" - Yes "Did you think we need to find the person to go used this cup?" - Yes "You must have thought we need to run a DNA test." - Yes Let the person tell the story! That's why you have them on.

Took 2 stars off for this, otherwise, great show!

I used to love this show. I felt it was grade A crime reporting. The two hour shows are ludicrous. God help you of you do a shot every time they say, "coming up ..." You would end up passed out on the floor.

If this show is going to survive they better go back to a concise on hour format. The two hour shows are frustrating and end up boring. The episodes ate so padded and dragged out!

There are some pretty decent crime videos on YouTube that are about 20 minutes! They may not be as reliable, professional or polished as Datel8ne but they are the new competition. Get with it NBC. You are losing viewers.
