Crime Beat

I watch all the true crime I can get my hands on. "Crime Beat" is one of the best true crime series I have ever seen come out of North America. Period.

Very fast paced, re-enactments move the plot forward, every scene has a purpose, great narration and true commentary by real life detectives add that layer of authenticity without falling into "the boredom trap" of many other similar shows.

Every episode is gripping, suspenseful, terrifying...this series brings it all, in spades.

Highly (highly) recommend - cannot wait for season 2 (looks like it was just released!!!)

The show is very repetitious, could have been presented in a half an hour. Violent criminal's in Canada have a lot going for them. Mass killer gets a full release. Guy cuts off another guy's head and then eats him in front of people, is free. The families of these victims are in disbelief. Who can blame them. These rules are incredible. I saw on Family Guy them making funof it all of the time.

3 season in still one of the dullest true crime shows there is. If the pod case is as dull and lack luster as the TV version, it would put the listeners to sleep or worse yet into a coma! Antony Robart robotic delivery is just bad. This is a show only that could get air time in Canada as it is that dull!

I'm quite fascinated by what people are capable by killing other people. It is so very hard to fathom. I watch alot of real crime shows.

Crime Beat has to be the best crime show I've ever seen. And I've seen tons. It is done very well. Very educational in telling the story. It is done so much so much better than the USA crime shows.

Great detective interviews and interviews with family members. I have been sick in bed and have watched 3 days straight of this show.

Fascinating stories of crime victims and the hunt to find the killers. I think the most fascinating stories in Canada. Look forward to more seasons of this show.

I really enjoyed watching this series as it is about crime in Canada.

What I didn't like is the horrible music that starts the program. Some of the presenters on different episodes are very bad and have terrible speaking voices. If these two dislikes were eliminated I woud give it 9 out of 10. It seems that the series is done on a low budget and thus the terrible music and poor presenters. Good that they have a show focusing on Canadian Crimes for a change without all the "drama" on the usual on all of the standard American TV crime shows. Anyways it is certainly worth watching and I do hope they will continue the show .
