The stories were interesting, the writing was weak
I love True Crime shows but this series needed a stronger writer. They were attempting to build suspense constantly and it distracted for the story telling. It felt like the blurbs for upcoming news stories..."don't touch that dial. What happened to her could happen to you" kind of vibes. True crime kind of writes itself and you don't need to push so hard to sensationalize it. Sometimes I can ignore weak writing, I am here for the story after all, but it was so bad at points I wanted to turn it off. If you don't have enough information to make an hour episode, make it shorter or do more story telling about the victim. If they have a second season I hope they get better writers.
