    B-O-R-I-N-G

    This investigative series sheds no light on the murder of 3 eight year old boys, sheds nothing new on the crime. Bob Ruff is out of his league as the host. Don't waste your time. Better you should watch the HBO program 'Paradise Lost' and 'Paradise Lost 2'.

    Absolutely dreadful

    No new facts added, no extra light shed on the incident. Just a charmless, unlikeable guy covering old ground whilst occasionally going "wow" like he has just uncovered some sort of case breaking fact

    At this point there's only one valid suspect

    Terry Hobbs. If you look at all the various documentaries about this case that have him walking to and from with his weeping wife at the time take a close look at his face. Not a single tear in his eye at any point that he's been questioned or even in a shot. When I look at that man I see no emotion at all, a trait of a sociopath. In my opinion he's guilty. DNA evidence supports it, it's just the state of Arkansas does not want to admit what a huge fu@k up this was. We can only hope the next DA has a heart and allows re-examination of evidence.

    Entertaining, but Deceptive

    I did not find this series boring. However, I did sense the whole documentary was a tease. Good ol' Bob is playing it up for the camera, a lot. But Ruff suggests so many assumptions that just have no merit. The stunt where he has a guy recreate the trek from the crime scene to Bojangles is pure theater and irrelevant. The scene where he is tracking down all the WM3 guys because he needs their permission to DNA test evidence is pure nonsense. He is acting like getting oral OKs will allow a Podcaster to obtain forensic evidence from a triple homicide for DNA testing. Say what!? The state is not opening this case unless they have a law enforcement officer that finds an actual suspect. The DA is not going to turn over evidence for television ratings. This documentary is very much like a podcast, a lot of innuendo, loose facts, and not much else.

    2 stars for the effort

    As someone who has seen all the documentaries about this case, I can confidently say that this is the worst of them all. It gives "0" new information about the case. The "investigator" person keeps going over the obvious facts, treating the audience as morons with an IQ of a pigeon. He hypes you up about this new technique which can give more accurate DNA evidence and could shed light who the murderer can be throughout the whole 2 episodes, and in the end, he can't even get it done! I honestly suggest you to watch any other documentary thats done about the West Memphis Three than this crap. Watching some fishes in an aquarium would have been more entertaining.
