The Yogurt Shop Murders

Lacks energy, real emotion, and is slow as hell. Having a hard time believing this is an HBO production. If the director was unable to pull any life out of these people, they could've at least faked it with a great original score. So really it's an absolute snooze fest. Skip this one, or if you must, you'll appreciate good docs that much more.

This is a good documentary about a horrible crime and the investigation which followed. The problem with this show is that it is FOUR hours long for no good reason. This could have been a really good one hour show. Instead, they repeat the same things over and over. A good editor would have went a long way to make this a better documentary.

I feel so sad for the families that this series did not do the story justice. It was so slow and drawn out. As my husband and I watched the first episode, we felt it was a little scattered and slow, but gave it the benefit of the doubt and continued watching. After it finished, we hoped the second episode would be better. We were skeptical but hopeful. We waited the week and watched the second. It was maybe a smidge better in some regards, worse in others. Unfortunately, we gave up and won't be watching the remaining episodes. I'll read about it and watch other docs or YouTube videos to learn more about this story.

The two episodes I have seen so far have been excruciatingly slow and boring beyond belief. This entire series thus far has been less about the actual case itself, and more about how it has impacted people close to the case in the most uninteresting approach possible. A great example is in episode 2, when the filmmakers visit the school of one of the victims to show us a small memorial for her at night, talking to someone who works for the school who has no relation to the victims and may not have even been alive when the murders took place.

With no new developments in this case and seemingly no interesting directions to go, this has to be one of the worst true crime documentaries I have ever seen.

Too long and frankly the 'cliffhanger' to be revealed might have to wait until we are all dead. Nothing of value at the end of the day. It's too bad for the families that had to relive this once again on a poorly produced amd edited documentary. The research into the backstreet was not done very well. Any 3rd grader could have written this uo to be more exciting. Can't wait for more......not.
