Grave Mysteries

I'm actually glad that there is diversity in the victims of Crime. By having friends and family and bringing the characters to life it gives ppl a glimpse into how very Precious Everyone's life is. The Love Family and friends have is the same No Matter who u are! Thanks for highlighting diverse victims lives. And I even look forward to seeing what character the same Black actor is going to play Next. 🙏🏽 One-day there won't be a Need for so many crime tv shoes!

Ok, admittedly this kind of show isn't my thing... but I watched episode one for a bit and they found a murdered woman, apparently suffocated with a tv-cable tied in a... tum tum TUM... square knot.

for those unfamiliar with the term, a square knot is pretty much THE simplest knot you can tie two ends of rope together with. It is a simpler version of the knot everybody uses to tie their shoelaces with. (no loops)

So the the "investigator" goes "hey, this must be military, marine core, somebody that knows a lot about knots" REALLY. that's what he said.

So I go "UGH, its one of those series" But then: a close-up of the knot... and it ISN'T a square knot! O.O It is what we call in dutch "een oud wijf", an old lady, the ONLY way you can actually tie the simplest knot in existence WRONG.

Great production value, guys... must be military.

I'm done watching "Grave Mysteries" for only this one reason: Every time the scene cuts to a new scene, the TV image jumps as though the tape is being abruptly cut, and it's accompanied by a brief static-like sound. What doofus thought this was a good idea? Why can't we just leave out the stupid gimmicks and present the show in a no-nonsense way? The image-jumps occur so often (the show very frequently switches scenes, as would be expected for a murder docudrama), that I practically get motion sickness just watching. There is absolutely NO reason whatsoever why this jump must occur at all, nada, zero, NO reason -- other than the director getting off on dumb gimmicks.
