Mean Girl Murders

It's hard to even call this a true crime show in my view, since it is told more from the perspective of very myopic minded witnesses for the most part, and the narration adds little else. There's overall very little in terms of undisputed facts, or really very little following of the actual crimes in any kind of typical investigative way. It's basically like a soap opera type of true crime show. Personally, I often enjoy a good true crime investigative program, but this one is not really something that interests me much at all. Most of the newer true crime shows in recent history, have generally slipped in quality in my estimation compared to previous decades. Far too many have become more like common trash TV nowadays, rather than good or interesting stories that are well told.

3.5/10.

I really enjoy the story telling in this show, it's one of the better ones! I don't understand how some of the slow minded commenters thought that "mean girl murders" only equated to high schoolers lmao this isn't a show featuring Lindsay Lohan. It's put together very well showing how dark and twisted some women can be. Please bring this show back for a season 3 and beyond! I have binged this show and rewatched a handful of the episodes. I have been telling all of my friends that watch crime shows to give this a try and they also like the way the stories are being told in this series. Every episode portrays a different type of "mean girl" and how low they'd go.

Is it me or is the prosecutor from S2E7 Toby from "This is US"? Chris Sullivan. I mean, great actor. Love him but I really think it's him and if it's not him they certainly look alike and omg!!! BTW this episode is very interesting and I honestly did not expect that plot twist. Makes me dislike popular HS trends even more than when I was in HS . I feel for the parents of the kids, not just on this episode but on all. Things can definitely change dramatically from one minute to the next. I like that this show includes actual footage which I know can be triggering for some but it makes the show more interesting.

The show is fine, I'm commenting on the episode "Fit to Kill" they are portrayed as super hot and fit Miami types but that couldn't be further from the truth. This looks like the D list of gyms in a town full of "beautiful" people. I do not consider plastic people beautiful, but some do and that is the Miami area's reputation. This episode was not great, like the show in general though.

With the title of the show being Mean Girl Murders I was expecting a show about high school cliques getting into fights ending in murder. That is why I didn't watch the first season of the show. Then I saw a preview for an episode from season two which had a comment about how they planned this cold blooded murder for months. So I thought maybe there was more to the show than just disputes between high schoolers. In some cases it does, but when the woman is closer to middle age than high school age I'm not sure it's appropriate to call them a "mean girl" I think there are other terms that would be more appropriate. There is even one episode where the murder isn't a girl. There are some where they do not seem to be mean girls. The plus side to the show is unlike most true crime murder docu-series it does not focus on the graphic details of the murder but focuses more on the people involved and why it happened.
