Bizarre Murders

I love watching REAL crime stories. So when I came across this, I thought it was going to be interesting. I wish they would of told the viewer up front if "based on actual events". I can see taking events and twisting them to be entertaining. LOVE the host. Can find myself laughing at the events or his comments (also like the fun music). Different kind of twist. Great to listen over the headphones while working in the yard (something other then music). Some of the shows end ....like they were cut short.....and I didn't know the complete outcome so I tried to find more info the case online. I can't find any! Thus questioned .....how real is this. So with that, I enjoy it for what it is. Just like watching Amy other sitcom for entertainment. Thus why only 7 stars...if real.....totally a 10! They even reuse some of the actors in different stories. I even found that cool.

As IMDB reviewer elektroad so aptly said in in their review title, "Fake? Real? Who cares? Steve Moore makes this better than other 'crime' shows." My philosophy exactly! There are a ton of serious, play-it-straight crime shows to choose from on basic cable, the internet, streaming video services, etc. What makes Bizarre Murders stand out is the combination of satirical re-enactments and narrations complemented by host Steve Moore's commentary. His real life professional credentials from 25 years in the FBI give the show authenticity while at the same time mirroring its tongue in cheek comedic slant with his own dry sense of humor. Yes, it's intentionally whimsical, but you still learn stuff about criminal behavior and investigations. Go Steve!!

Most people who have rated this series a one-star based on their belief that none of the episodes are based on real crimes do not know their true crimes at all. I avidly watch true crime shows and read the novels published and could easily recognize infamous real crimes that we're committed. People just don't want to do their research anymore. It clearly states that names, locations and some details have been altered, what did people expect? A bio at the end of the episodes detailing the unadulterated facts? Enjoy the show or don't buy to say these are made up crimes is ridiculous.

This is all fiction! Pure bull! The acting is horrible and way overdone. Which means bad directing as well.

Good show, but I don't know why they have to change information when the crimes actually did happen. All the other true crime shows I watch provide real names of victims/perps and the exact places where the crimes occurred. What's the purpose of tweaking the facts? That being said, I kind of like doing a Google search using the clues provided by the show to find out what the REAL details of the crimes are.
