Signs of a Psychopath

This is one of the best Raw True Crime Documentary out there.

No doubt, this is a great show if you are looking for getting some insights of psychopath. However, it makes me sick even though there is no brutal graphical description in the show. I'm sick of their callousness and the way they justified themselves.

I'm a big fan of crime shows, but, I really don't wanna see this show again at the same time. Big relief that I can't understand any of their behavior.

Most Murder Shows (what I call true crime shows) are superficially shallow in terms of the people involved, victims and perpetrators. This show gets a little deeper into the mind, psychology, behaviors, and motivations of psychopaths. I feel that after watching most if not all of the episodes, I could spot a psychopath a mile away. And yes, I've come across a few. Ask me about the 8 year old psychopathic kid I came across, who almost caused my son to quit hockey. I felt bad for the parents, who actually seemed like pretty good people. They just had a kid who was evil to his core. Fun fact about psychopaths: they make good CEOs. No empathy, they just care about the company making money for the shareholders. No empathy, let's layoff another few hundred or few thousand employees ...

This show is nothing short of captivating - not because it glamorizes crime, but because it offers a raw, unfiltered look into the minds of individuals who defy the boundaries of normal human emotion. It doesn't just focus on "criminals" in the traditional sense, but instead zeroes in on true psychopaths - people whose actions and psychology challenge our understanding of morality, empathy, and motive.

What makes this series stand out is the expert commentary from seasoned psychologists and behavioral analysts. Their insights add a powerful layer of depth, helping the viewer grasp the subtle (and sometimes chilling) nuances behind these individuals' behaviors, expressions, and manipulative tactics. You're not just watching a documentary - you're being educated in the complex science of the human psyche.

The interrogation footage is by far the most gripping aspect of the show. Watching these people interact with law enforcement in real time - the lies, the deflections, the moments they slip up - is both unsettling and fascinating. It reveals how calculated and, at times, terrifyingly calm some of these individuals can be. The way they speak, the micro-expressions on their faces, even their body language - every second feels like a lesson in psychology and criminal behavior.

If you're someone who's intrigued by forensic psychology, criminal profiling, or just love a show that challenges your thinking and keeps you hooked from start to finish, this is an absolute must-watch. It's thought-provoking, intense, and disturbingly unforgettable.

The most interesting parts of this series are the interrogation clips. Most of them using outdated and non scientific interrogation techniques.

A set of experts try to explain how every suspect in the series are psycopats, only based on transcripts and interrogations audio/video. Even if the experts sometimes agree that the suspects only have a degree of psycopathic behavior, the series miss an opposing view, with someone like professor Gisli Gudjonson and his work on false confessions and interrogations.

False confessions and interrogation methods would be another great tv series if you are more into documentaries based on facts than entertainment.
