Homicide

I absolutely love this series. As an avid and routine true crime aficionado, this one checks all the boxes for me, and I have a very long check list! I'm very picky when it comes to what I watch, so for this one to make an impression says a lot.

I love the quality of work that's put into this series most of all. The detectives and their way of storytelling is really top notch and keeps you glued to each episode. My only complaint is that it's too short. It needs a good five to ten more episodes (stories). I'm really hoping they put out more seasons, and soon, because I'm very sad it's over. Or maybe they can do other cities? I sure hope so.

This is the best crime series I've ever seen. As one review said, please give us more. The cast is mostly familiar faces for those into true crime. The two stand outs for me are the always beautiful and charismatic Irma Rivera and the fabulous unbeatable Barbara Butcher. Two powerhouse women. I could listen to Barbara Butcher any day and all days of the week. She is so smart and such a thoughtful human that always delivers her unique perspective. I wish this had more than 5 episodes or they would provide more seasons. It is so well produced (probably because it's a Wolf production) and while a few of the stories were familiar, there were a few I had never heard of. If you enjoy true crime this should be at the top of your list. And ignore the reviewer who thinks he or she can do a better job, you can't fix stupid .

Detectives and family members detail the events, scars and tragedies of several murders, crimes that took place across various parts of New York.

This is a very well made, well produced and well presented series. Some well known crimes, one or two perhaps not as famous, I was definitely aware of both thr Deli and Pilmar cases, each episode though, has something to offer.

Don't expect any wild theories, outlandish theories, or heaven forbid, some of the obscure goings on of something like Files of the unexplained, this is very grounded, nothing is sensationalised or over dramatised.

A fascinating insight into how much The Police invest in their cases, also interesting to see the crossovers.

I hope another series follows.

8/10.

There are a lot of documentaries out there regarding true crime. Dick Wolf has done an extraordinary job on bringing this one to the screen. I would say it's one of the best written, true crime dramas ever made. I know there's only one season so far but I hope there are many many more. People in North America all understand that New York in the 80s 90s was a completely different city going as far back as the Son of Sam murders and how proud law-enforcement was at their job. These are the cases that Mid-America never got to see they were just newsprint in New York City at the time when they happened. The nicest thing about this particular one is the honesty of the people involved, and the willingness to do their work, not for themselves for the families of the victims.. BRAVO- they say there's 1 million more stories in the city I think we need to hear them.

Amazing!! The editing was simply perfect, but the true stories oh my they were so sad but very interesting to hear. The people behind all the hard work to find out the results were brilliant and very well spoken about the cases and families involved! Need another 5 episodes!!!

I enjoyed how much depth each episode went into but going back to the editing and the footage were a great addition to really get the gist of the cases.

I generally love unsolved cases but this mini documentary was done brilliantly and I am needing more especially finding out who were the killers and finding the justice in court.
