The Girl on the Milk Carton

I have viewed hundreds of true crime/cold case shows. The Girl on the Milk Carton isn't the worst of the lot but it makes many of the same mistakes as its predecessors. Screeching and moaning sounds and creepy "music," sometimes so loud you can't make out the dialogue. The producers of these shows must think this noise is part of their job description. Some of the vehicles are not from the period. I like a narrator with a good voice (think Bill Kurtis or Peter Thomas), which The Girl on the Milk Carton lacked. The reenactments looked a little cheesy but they usually do. I liked the clip of President Reagan and they way the perpetrators wife sort of worked backwards to the solution. Also this could have been accomplished in 60 minutes instead of stretching it to 2 hours.
