A Crime to Remember

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

Murder back when it was shocking. Grade A production values in the recreations. Interesting stories from the past.

It is still available for streaming. I'm sad they aren't making any more new episodes. This was top notch.

The comments whining about cigarette smoking crack me up. Yes, it is a bad habit but it hasn't wreaked as much havoc, pain and killings like alcohol and drug abuse. Some people are just ...

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!

I like those slow paced documentaries. No flashy fast cuts like other shows.

Each story takes its time to develop, great production designs in recreating the time period. Reenactments are not top-notch for some episodes but OK. I have seen worst in indie movies.

Plus interviews of the people (law enforcement, witnesses,...).

So worth watching.

Covering famous crimes from the past. Most were famous at the time and some still are . It's too bad it was cancelled but other unoriginal reality crime shows remain or more of the same added.

Journalists and historians and sometimes people around at the time added context and you could learn not only about that specific case but the era and place it happened.
