World's Most Evil Killers

I've watched tons of shows like this: Forensic Files, Unsolved Mysteries, etc, and this one is really good because it examines killers I have never heard of. Most of the shows about serial or spree killers focus on the well-known ones we have heard of a million times, but this one (in addition to the famous killers) focuses on quite a few in the British Isles.

I think the narrator and experts do a good job of adding insights that stimulate further understanding.

I have limited knowledge of the geography in the British Isles, so I find the limited descriptions of the areas there kind of aggravating. I barely know where London is, so saying "north of Kent," or something similar means absolutely nothing to me. It's like me saying "south of Springfield" and expecting understanding from a foreign audience.

Cracking series. Even though most of the cases are familiar to a lot of us, it's filmed nicely with a few extra tidbits of information about some of the worst humans to walk the planet. There were two episodes that were particularly interesting. Killers I hadn't heard of.

The one thing that very nearly stopped me from watching episode 2 and more, was the voice of one of the 'experts' featured in the episodes. If you can't tolerate the sing-song effect that some people have when talking - when they leave the last words as a hiGH nOTE - then you might get irritated. In ep 7, which covers Ed Gein, Harold Schector's high notes hit a peak. I'm guessing it's because he's the author of an Ed Gein book and some other books about serial killers. So he gets super exiTED and emphasISES his senteNCES. He does a slurp type sound too. Might seem a little petty but he covers each episode and it kind of ruins it for me. Other than that, it's a decent watch.

Fred Dinage has become loud and irritating on the narration of each episodes

His emphasis on each deadly moment has your headache turning into a migraine!!

It's time for a more deeper soft tone.. Someone fresh and new.

The people assessing the criminals are a joke. Elizabeth Yardley lost all credibility when she claimed Trichotillomania is a self-harming condition. It's as harmful as nail biting or skin picking. It's an anxiety tick. The narrator is REALLY dramatic and ten times louder than everyon eelse. Anyone making judgments that weren't actually there or involved seemed like time killers to make the show longer. Added very little to the substance. Also, some of these killers were nothing compared to some not mentioned at all. I was wondering after the first season if they were only focusing on the UK but then things got really evil when they started including the crazy US folk. If they went further than this century, they'd have an endless supply of evil.

So, why don't they interview any of the British citizens who were convicted of murder? Why don't they make a bigger difference between spree killers and serial killers? Evil killers ... well, I'd expect more in-depth coverage of what makes them evil. As an indigenous person, 'evil' has very little meaning unless it is backed up by a tremendous lot of deviation from 'normal' human behavior. Since there are so many English accents, I assume that this is a show from a very narrow definition of 'evil,' given all the crimes against humanity the English visited upon non-white peoples across the globe.
