Inside the Mind of a Serial Killer

First of all, you can see that the speakers are reading their text on some kind of panel next to the camera. It really gets on your nerve and it's insulting. I hated all of them profoundly. They're all so obnoxious.

The "fill-ups" of the sketch artist drawing a face probably fills at least half of the show and it got me violent. It was so boring and repetetive. Also, they speculate more then they share any useful information. They're so biased.

If you want to produce a true crime show, take this one as an example of what not to do. Worst show. It didn't cost me anything to watch it and I still feel I want a refund.

Like so many of us nowadays, I'm fascinated by Serial Killers. So stumbling upon this series on Netflix had me stoked to learn about some of the other random serial killers who aren't well known (I'd never heard of), as there are many books, docuseries, documentaries, etc based on the more prolific and highly publicized "prototypical" ones.

But this series.was.the.f'n.WORST. The presentation and delivery of the information was incredibly obnoxious; my intrigue lead me to watch WAY MORE of the series than I should've wasted my time on, which was approximately 25-ish minutes into the first episode.

The persistent and repetitive clips of the dang artist pencilling in the eyes, cutting back to that imagery over. and over. and over. again was just so painful. I held out for ~25 mins hoping they would just move along and stop showing clips of pencilling in the irises, coloring in the pupils now, with such regularity and frequency that I just could not anymore. I am so disappointed that the producers/directors so epically failed at presenting this rather interesting and now viral material!

DO NOT WATCH UNLESS YOU HATE YOUR SANITY AND ENJOY WASTING YOUR DANG TIME

This show really does get in the mind of serial killers. It doesn't use flashy editing, or lame re-enactments, it's more about the psychology. After watching an episode you know what they did and the story of how the got there. The experts on the show are great. They also explore lesser known killers. Its fascinating. If you need high production values and cliffhanger episodes, there's plenty of streaming shows. I can't wait to watch season 2 and hope they do more.

The episodes are very drawn out and suffocated in speculation.

I've really been into the forensic shows and naturally I followed with other crime series shows. This was a great idea with lots of good tapes to make a great series. The first thing that pissed me off was this so called psychiatrist that has an anoying way of over acting as she interprets the criminal and tapes. Then the narrator with his accent is just as annoying. What is with everyone these days thinking we're better off with a narrator that's hard to understand? This show would be fine if you modeled it after a show like Forensic Files. Even get that narrator and only use psychologists that know the case. This is just a waste of good material and research.
