Finally Caught

How in the world was Christine Hannah selected to have a speaking role on this show? Simply horrible! Sounds like she has a mouthful of marbles. Combine that with zero personality behind what she says and I cringe when she speaks! Surely there were other choices. I have seen her on a few other shows and didn't understand it then. There are many other narrators on the show that speak beautiful and do not hurt the overall flow this otherwise good show.

If she is paid for this narration whatever she receives is too much. I am sure there are iewers that could do a better job and appear for free, in case the budget is the issue!

I came on here to figure out why the forensic specialist on the show sounds breathless and like her breath is being forced out. I haven't found any answers, but I agree with several other posters. Her manner of speaking distracts from the information she is conveying. It's an interesting show, but hard to listen to.

I like the details that they reveal and the show's overall format. However, some of the reinactments are clearly low budget. The episode featuring Thomas Mitchell has some terrible props. Judith Flagg is carrying a bundle with a horrible quality wig sticking out the top and it's meant to be her 8-month-old son.

The concept of this series is good and the cases are definitely interesting, however the "experts" are completely unnecessary.

The concept of focusing on lesser known older cold cases that are finally solved is great. I've watched several episodes about cases I had never seen before or knew anything about.

What doesn't work are the plethora of " experts" giving a synopsis every episode. These "experts" are unnecessary when there is also a narrator. The worst offender is the forensic expert, Christine Hannah, who talks with a breathy affect as if someone punched her in the throat. I literally want to gauge my ears out every time she's on screen. The other "experts" seem to recite commentary as middle schoolers giving an oral book report, they're a bit to excited about murder.

Hopefully there will be more seasons, just without these unnecessary cast members that ruin the serious nature of the show.

It's a great show, but perhaps subtitles for Christine Hannah might make her lines more understandable. She speaks as though she doesn't have enough air to finish her words or sentences. This makes it difficult to understand her. This is not a criticism of her, but perhaps she needs help to allow the viewers to get what she's trying to communicate. I often have to rewind to find out what she is saying.

Otherwise, the show is intriguing, well-delivered, thoughtful (especially to the families of the victims), and.pertinent to this day and age. There are lessons in this series for everyone. It is not a sensational series, yet it is informative.

I literally created an account just to comment here. I love true crime and am used to commentators on these types of shows. BUT. The "experts" they have on "Finally Caught" are clearly reading cue cards, and badly written cue cards at that. No one naturally speaks this way. A lot of hate has been piled on the female commentators here, but trust me - they are ALL cringe-y. The stories are interesting and tragic, and I love a good "finally solved" cold case show. The producers need to listen to the reviews and interview the people who actually worked on the cases, not the high school drama club.
