Interesting story, terrible execution

The narrator talks in slow motion and pauses for 3-4 seconds between each sentence. They literally drag each episode on and take 45 minutes to tell a story that would take 15 minutes to tell if it wasn't for the slow motion narrative, huge pauses in between sentences and narration repeating the same things over and over.

"They found a fracture in the back of the skull...."

"A fracture was found in the back of the skull...."

"There in the back of the skull was a fracture...."

"A fracture.....back....of....the....skull....."

"The forensics also found a fracture in the back of the skull"

How many different ways can you say the same sentence just for the sake of dragging the episode on?

Decent show, BUT

Please, for the love of Forensics, FIRE this narrator. What in the actual robotics is her voice? None of the producers noticed this glaring problem?

Other than that, this show is decent.

Better than the rest

Secrets of the morgue is better than the rest because it focuses on the investigation of the crime, rather than the gore of a dead body or a detailed reenactment.

The investigations done by medical examiners are fascinating. However, ID TV has had some missteps in this area. They had one show that focused on a well-known medical examiner which, unfortunately, reveled in displays of gore on the examination table. I don't know about you, but that's not my thing. Also, in the past ID TV has produced shows with far too many dramatic reenactments. So many actors and so many reenactments tend to distract from the investigation. But not so in secrets of the morgue. Instead, they simply re-create the crime scene visually with no actors. It's a very powerful effect and one of the things that makes this show compelling.
