I Am Homicide

I read some of the reviews on this show and was shocked! I just can't imagine not liking Det. McFadden! He's intelligent, funny and I love his laugh along with that larger then life smile! I even love his ego. I can't even imagine what it takes to be a Homicide Detective. A special breed. The show is done excellently with the Detective explaining his thoughts while he is investigating and where it finally leads him. As for people who have written about his ghetto slang again I like it. It is who the man is and I watch the show to see that. This show and "Murder Chose Me" are my favorites. Very different individuals but with the same ego. I love the acting specifically when you can read someone's thoughts by looking in their eyes. That's excellent acting. I never would have thought my favorite TV shows would be about true crime specifically where I don't watch much TV but it just goes to show ID did a great job choosing Det. McFadden and the way the show is directed.

Reviews here either love it or hate it. The haters seem to disparage it for not being big city slick. Watch TV for that. I'm a long time true crime addict and this show is every bit as good as Homicide Hunter but with an entirely different flavor. One thing, it's in the South and sports some local dialect. If that puts your nose out of joint, get over yourself and just enjoy the crime solving. Garry McFadden, our detective, speaks home style, just like you would be jawing with friends. His approach to crime and criminals is educational. You almost feel like you could learn to do this job. What I really like is the enthusiasm he has for the chase. There is no doubt he loves his job--just the kind of guy that should be doing it.

"I Am Homicide" is a very interesting show with real stories of murder cases worked by Detective Garry McFadden in the Charlotte area. It's a well done television show showcasing his great detective work over a 30 year career. Interviews of real people are incorporated with reenactments of the case. These cases are presented in a way that makes them interesting to follow. But the true magic of this show is Detective McFadden himself! He is incredibly smart, witty, and extremely entertaining! He has some of the funniest sayings ever, such as "if you want to run with me, you better have shoes on" Watch this man and you'll see what I mean. What an amazing police officer who has solved a huge number of complicated cases with intelligence and charm - a true gem! Go and give this one a whirl.

This is an awesome show. The intro music is so chilling. Garry McFadden is so calm,cool, and collected. He is so funny with all of his southern idioms. He was a great detective who solved more murders than Joe Kenda. The detective who wrote the negative and racist review that you couldn't understand the black witnesses is just upset because he doesn't have a show, lol. Unless, that reviewer is deaf or don't understand English, then I have no idea what he is talking about. The actors in the show are all very good. The show is very interesting and informative. I love this show and hope it is brought back for a second season. ID channel really has some very good shows. I find myself watching the ID channel all the time. Keep up the good work ID

Low and behold..thats his favorite oneliner....he's so intelligent that he says 'aks' instead of ask..he acts like he solves everything by him self.

Complaning abouth his former chief (backstabbing) ..bragging abouth how great he is..he could fit right in a episode of Shaft as a pimp.... When his phone rings he always uses the term 'ringadingding'..it's the great McFadden show,using victims for his benefit.

If a cop like him came to me and act as cockey as he does without any proof,I would be realy pissed..accusing people in a disrespectfull manor,to find out later they are innocent.

He looks likw a clown,acts like a clown and still thinks he's serious

I don't like this guy.
