Keeper of the Ashes: The Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was bothered by Kristin Chenoweth's narcissism. I watch a ton of true crime and never heard the tragic story of the Girl Scouts massacre and tunnel vision of the keystone cops rooted in racism. This story stands out on its own without Kristen Chenoworth trying to make it all about her. What an attention seeker!!! And then she said something about her needing to heal. How dare she!!!! She didn't know them or their families.

And then her trying to promote her nieces singing career and her own Broadway skills. It really irritated me and it had to irritate the actual victims family members. Those sweet little girls deserve so much more this.

"Was I friends with the girls? No. Did I ever even have a single conversation with any of the girls? No. Did I ever acknowledge their existence in any way before their murder? No. But did I accidentally share the same airspace as them on occasion so it's very important I'm in this show!" is basically how all her scenes go.

She's an extremely talented Broadway actor but her inclusion really just ruins it. It feels so forced and unnecessary just bc she went to the same school as some of the girls just to cash in on her celebrity.

Especially when she just gives unrelated info or feelings about camp and other things that have nothing to do with the events of the story bc she wasn't there.

It halts the pace of the mini series that should be trying to spread awareness and sus out information about the tragic murder of 3 young girls.

Someone trying to get some publicity using a sickening event to do it. I don't know how people can do this. A real documentary would have been more appropriate as opposed to someone who has absolutely no link to the event at all, claiming that they do.

The story deserves this attention and the extensive archival footage makes for an evocative documentary. But why oh why did Kristen Chenoweth have to put herself in this story? Isn't she famous enough? An on screen blurb before or after clarifying her interest would have been more than enough.

Unfortunately not as many people will watch this because of the way it's been promoted as a celebrity vehicle.

Chenoweth's presence in this film is ridiculous! Her "Coulda-Woulda-Shouda" means what, exactly. This is a tragic story, so interjections of her waltzing through a field or looking at her own tributes really detracts from the story. Reminds me of Garth Brooks' and Soleil Moon Frye's shameless series. Get over yourselves.
