Show is interesting, but doing autopsies on the replica bodies made out of gel is a waste of time, pure sensationilism. Get rid of that and use the time for more 'facts".
I'm hoping there is another season. The topics and the educational value is top notch. This show would go over much better if the smithsonian channel spent some money and upgraded the graphics and the set. Lindsey Fitzharris is a breath of fresh air and is extremely interesting and is a great storyteller.
Interesting show, well thought out just out of date editing and graphics but whatevs
Ugh. What a disappointment. I just stumbled across this show and started the Harry Houdini episode. They dragged out a cartoonish looking pretend body to do an "autopsy" on, with Houdinu's face superimposed onto it (in a very low quality way). How the host kept a serious face is beyond me.
Thumbs down, Smithsonian. I'm not in first grade.
