The Innocent Man

I have to admit, it starts off a bit slow with a lot of information coming through the first 15 minutes. But once everything starts making more sense you just become obsessed and intrigued by the story. I loved how it evolved through the 6 episodes and how every episode left you wantinf more. I can only recommend!

Overall, I really enjoyed this series, which takes a look at still more innocent people being locked away for decades of their lives.

But there are a couple points of confusion: Going into the second episode, I felt like I just wasn't getting enough details. You will eventually get caught up on (most of) those missing details to form a whole picture, so don't let that stop you from watching. My other problem, as another reviewer stated, is that there are so many people in the series. It can start becoming difficult to keep up with who did what, and to which case that person is connected,

Still, I do recommend it. It's an important topic that needs to be discussed more. I would like to purchase John Grisham's book now. Hopefully it will answer some of the questions I still have.

I like this show but it annoys me to watch it as it is very easy to get confused or miss 3 seconds and be completely out the loop without having to rewind it, it is not simply because it is complex and in depth but the way the story is told is something else, not in any type of chronological order or seemingly any logical order, would have loved to have seen this real life story explained in a much clearer and generally more exciting way than what has been achieved here. Sorry.

Seriously, either get a pen and paper and write down the names of the major characters and associate them with each case/victim. Mother, sister, prosecutor, accused etc... It will really help. Also, when you hear music, hit fast forward for 10 or 20 seconds. It's a good show, but it's confusing and it lingers on a bit. The show also goes back and forth between two crimes and sometimes you're not sure for a minute which crime they are speaking of at the time. I think they could have put all the information you need into 5 episodes instead of 6.

These stories are very important and I'm glad I watched this series. However it can a bit confusing with all the different characters involved with these 2 separate incidents. The dramatic parts are lackluster as well but not so bad as to ruin the episodes. Perhaps a pen and paper to write down notes would help keep the stories and characters straight in your head as you watch. 6/10
