Fatal Vows

Omg, I had to laugh because after I wrote my other review saying they need to fire the male psychologist I read other peoples' reviews and it seems nobody else likes him either. Read the reviews Producers and get rid of this guy so we can actually enjoy your show thoroughly!

For anyone seeing "Fatal Vows" for the first time, they may wonder if this is a serious crime documentary or some fictitious story -- the moment they begin hearing the ridiculous music. There's this drummy music, the kind you might hear in a love scene on a sitcom. Then there's the other kind of music, the kind that's associated with stripping. Both runs of music are entirely out of synch with a true life murder story. It's so sappy I've decided to stop watching "Fatal Vows." I'm also not sure about the overly-inserted commentary by the two psychologists. Most of what they say is already known by any viewer with basic common sense. Finally, the posing sequences on a stage, by the key "characters" in the crime, is ridiculous. It's as though the director can't make up his mind about whether the story is a true tragedy or some fictional comedy.

I like this show and its light hearted. I don't mind gaining insight from the professionals, but I disagree with some of Dr Brian Russell's views and I find him to be quite arrogant, especially in the Burning Love episode. I usually fast forward the show when he is talking.

While this true crime series offers some interesting stories and has good narration the psychoanalysis by Brian Russell and Stacey Kaiser sabotage the show. Their pseudo-intellectual comments serve absolutely no purpose to the stories. Russell's expression and weird lips are a distraction.

Many of these stories have been told on great shows like Forensic Files, and others, using actual people from the crime investigations who have actual expertise, unlike these two knuckleheads sitting in chairs blabbing resulting in nothing but eye rolls from viewers. Avoid this and look elsewhere, I repeat; Avoid this and look elsewhere 👎🏼

This show is one of my favorites, however, I have 2 problems with it, the therapists! I will either mute them out or go grab a snack when they start talking. They're both so annoying and it's pretty evident that they hate each other. The woman seems too self conscious and the man tries to use too many long words, ugh! These 2 aren't necessary and this show would be so much better if we didn't have to listen to them voicing their useless opinions on matters they don't have a clue about. They're both just relating info that we already know. If it weren't for those 2, I would have definitely rated this show a 10!
