People Magazine Investigates

Please stop using People Magazine team members who have horrible habits of voice fry, valley girl speak and like sounding more nasally than 14 year olds. I had to turn Law & Order espisode off today because of this.. .voice class.

I'll keep it short: If you are a fan of the True Crime genre you will probably like this series. It follows "the usual patterns" and executes the documentation and narrative quite well. It is nothing "special" but definitely one of the better shows of this kind I have seen in a while.

Unfortunately a few of the cases have already been documented/discussed in a lot of detail on other shows, but there are quite a few which I have never heard of before.

If you are done watching "The Jinx", "Making a Murderer" and I guess "The Killing Season" and liked those shows you will find some entertainment in this one, too.

Overall i would recommend it, 7/10.

Marc in particular, presents like he's reading a book to a 5 year old. Overall, toning down the fakie, cheese, over the top story telling, would be nice.

I like the stories though, and will keeping watching, even through the regular cringy narrations.

I don't know if woukd even help, or has been investigated. But if Steve's brother Brian's alibi was confirmed by time via video from surveillance system at his parents' house, the time on video cameras can be manipulated to show he was there at the time said. I saw this done on another ID crime show. I'm not sure if the video timer only was what was supposed to corroborate his alibi or not. Just food for thought.

The PMI staff are not good announcers and some--Alicia Dennis, have a very irritating voice. One woman keeps point her fingers and moving her hands around while she talks. The guy with the ten day beard has a horrible voice and always looks like he just got out of bed.

Really, none of their staff are any good at narrating this series. Don't know why they have to even be involved.

Could be an interesting series with professional announcers.
