I Am Homicide

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 really like this unique style of story telling, the detective's personality really makes the show. He touches you in way that you fill for the victims and you cheer for the hero that brings down the criminals. It is also so nice to see something different from all the reality shows the are based on women yelling at each other or anyone . So in my opinion you brought television back to life and thank you for that.

"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.

I think this show is great A lot of people commenting did not give the show a chance they are referring to the slang or how people speak in the south before giving the show a chance. For someone to comment that this very successful detective is not educated is just ridiculous. Some comments should not be allowed it should be about what the show is about not what you think about the host. I like this show he's original and he's being his self unlike a lot of other phony people. I love him and Joe Kenda. The show is great and I see how his down-to-earth personality probably helped him a lot in his career he is the type of person many types of people would feel comfortable around

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.
