Killer Women with Piers Morgan

I wanted to hate this because of my opinion of Piers but I really enjoyed the 5 episodes I saw. It's a different style to the true crime shows I usually watch and most of the cases were new to me. I imagine that if I got to watch the whole 2 seasons I might get irritated with Piers.

Terrible interviewee. Terrible. Interviewee. Rude, unobjective, ignorant. All were good stories, except Piers Morgan was a terrible interviewee.

Pick a random person off the street and there's a very big chance they will handle this much better than Piers did. Totally infuriating. He is biased, ignorant and you could argue unethical to some of these women.

It could be good if not for the ineptitude of Mr. Morgan, who's just looking for a way to make these women feel bad or for trying to get a surprise confession or repentance out of them. His lack of psychological insight ruins the opportunity to gain some understanding into these women's minds, true motives and psychology. The interesting part that comes out is the defense mechanisms that they build to protect themselves from what they did. But, unfortunately, Mr. Morgan is just the wrong person to do the interviews and they remain shallow and useless.

Fascinating yet frustrating at times. I highly recommend this program to anyone who usually finds true crime shows poorly written and somewhat prurient. Morgan lets the women mostly speak for themselves and provides the basic facts of the crime. No psychological analysis of the women or their crimes. Every woman has been the subject of a book by true crime author M. William Phelps. I don't know how or why Mr Morgan should require some sort special backround to present this program. A lot of people seem to have strong negative feelings about him but you should set those aside and listen to these women speak about their crimes. What frustrating is what is not said. WHY did these women do what they did? I found myself having sympathy for only one woman featured. All of them belong exactly where they are.
