The Genetic Detective

I dislike true crime shows that don't end with capturing the perp. These all do and that's a big plus. Most other shows are populated mostly with civil employees; city, county, state and federal - and they are all acting in official capacities and their demeaner is "official". But not CeCe. She's an ordinary citizen, with exceptional knowledge and skills, helping solve cold cases. I don't mind the casual filming from her home or introducing us to her husband, who's in the kitchen. This is not your usual true crime show, and for that I'm grateful. I hope there are many more episodes.

I am hooked on this show. I find the genealogy mapping fascinating. I want more episodes!

If you like crime shows, this is for you. And if you don't, this is an introduction to something that seems taken out of a sci fi movie. The stories are compelling, true, emotional. Perhaps a tiny bit less of CeCe in each and every episode will make the show more dynamic.

Being a genealogist I really could relate to this show and this new science. People have no idea how much work goes into keeping family records, names and events alive What's wrong with one more way of solving crime and putting scumbags where they belong?

I loved it! Interesting and fascinating that it can solve seriously old cold cases and a bit of insight into the gal who can do it!
