UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

ice-blonde-474-87320 I love this show!! Became so addicted to it as soon as I found it. Can't believe it hasn't got many reviews. The stories are great and true. Unheard of murders from history and the acting is quite good too. I love that it has some real people connected that are interviewed too. It's quite chilling. Great for a night watch. Episode that moved me the most was 'baby come home' so sad and thrilling right to the end. First episode of 1st series was OK but just keep watching them. Gets much better

AudioFileZ So much TV is crap. So much "made for cable" TV is formulaic crap. This show is a cut above. While it doesn't entirely step out of TV "world 'o' crap", it largely sidesteps it with a real flair for brilliant hindsight in the retelling of some really interesting crimes from the 50's and 60's.In the end it doesn't matter if it is the final word in honesty because it brings up so many unanswered questions pertinent to crimes that are, sadly, now forgotten. But do not take this lightly because these are major crimes and deserve, even at this late date, your introspection. I can't tell how important this series actually is so just watch because if you get it...you'll get it.

artellis-35-471689 I appeared on The Shot Doctor as the author of Zora Hurston and the Strange Case of Ruby McCollum and State of Florida vs. Ruby McCollum, Defendant (both available on Amazon), and was the only guest who knew all of the characters in the story. I was expecting that my decade-long work proving that Ruby McCollum's testimony at her trial made this a landmark case in the history of civil rights movement would be featured in this episode. Instead, the producers chose to edit out my comments, replacing them with the comments of two other narrators who never knew Adams or McCollum, and who perpetuated the falsehood that Ruby McCollum did not testify at her trial. This is not a "point of view," it is a travesty, a distortion of history, and a disservice to the viewers of this otherwise elegant and well-researched series. I have no idea why the story was stripped of the truth, unless it was in some misguided attempt to sensationalize the story.

ljuedes I can't remember watching a series that I enjoyed more than this one. The photography was exceptional, costuming and set design was perfect (I was around so I have personal experience), and the narration was spot on - not too much, not too little. As an added benefit, the series includes original insurance advertisements for AllState, adding to the ambiance. The acting in this series deserves special note. The characters that portray the reenactments do not show much emotion. This leaves an interesting impression on the viewer - almost as though the emotions of the characters are left up to the viewers to imagine, leaving a very haunting sense of distance. This series is a cut above the rest. In short, it rates a 10 out of 10 it in my book. I just don't know what they could have done better!
