Les Enquêtes extraordinaires

Why are people complaining that there is no host? It's always better to hear the story from friends and family members. Just take it as it is and stop comparing it to the old series. I personally like slow paced shows/movies, so I have no issue with that. I guess people these days are used to instant gratification and no longer have patience to wait for a build up. The way this was edited and put together is quite alright. On some stories the police investigation seems quite weird, like they didn't really look into it that hard. But then again we do not have all the details. Overall a good series.

A very well made reboot of the iconic series, Netflix does generally seem to be very good at crime documentary's. Six episodes in Vol. 1 and these first six cases are bizarre and completely intriguing.

The production is sleek, low key and emotive. I also really like the reimagining of the theme tune.

If you like true crime and a mystery, I would highly recommend this new series. I can't wait for Vol 2.

I should also state that you need more of an attention span than that of a goldfish to truly enjoy these cases, as they are singular and focused. Unlike the original series. A change that I think here works for the better.

Great stuff.

Someone commented that the revamped version of 'UM' reminds them of "Dateline," which I find to be an apt comparison. Though I will say the first and fifth episodes are exceptions; the latter for more obvious reasons. The former episode was great and reminded me of the original series. Yes, it was a whodunit, but other aspects were brought in. For example, how was the victim killed? It was under very unusual circumstances and shrouded by mystery, oh and the Freemasons!!! Despite them going down a more "Dateliney" path for most of the other episodes, I still enjoyed the program overall and give them kudos for trying something different. 7/10...Good, not great.

As others have said, this new format feels like Dateline. What happened to 4-6 mysteries per episode? We already know they are unsolved, so 52 minutes is a LONG time to spend on something with no closure. I do not see this one lasting very long unless the pace is improved.

Can someone help me to understand why they blew out s4 like this with horrible boring old story and a moth man ?!??

Like there is no real crime happening in the world ?!! So they had to dig up a case from 1977 and interview a bunch of stupid people about a mothman? :))) By the way I'm always wondering why all these supernatural stories happen in the us ? Is it the level of intelligence of average people or what ?!? From UFO, Big food, shape shifter or whatever mystical creature are all been seen in the united state ?! But Mothman ?!? It was the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard ! And why none has a picture of any of these ? Or a video ?! Fortunately everyone has an iPhone nowadays.... Soooooo disappointing....
