Forensics: The Real CSI

3 reviews
8/10

A factual, procedural look on real crimes.

This is a very interesting watch, if you're tuning in expecting to see something dramatic, along the lines of one of Netflix's more outrageous documentaries, forget it, this series isn't on the same lines.

This is a very procedural, systematic crime series, you see the point of view of the forensics and the Police, you will see interviews and footage, some of it particularly graphic.

Well narrated by Siobhan Finneran, she doesn't try to add any sense of drama, or any nonsense, it's factual.

Grizzly, intriguing and factual, it's a good series. 8/10.

Cold, dry, no drama, factual

A bit docu style with camera full detail onsite crime scenes. Some blurred faces, blood, interrogations, DNA ... Just finishing episode 1, cool technical insights on glass refractometers, oil temp. Step by step followup behind the scenes of murder cases.

An at times interesting show

An at times interesting show but it does comes across a little like a poor relation to Channel 4's 24 Hours in Police Custody, which covers much of the same ground, much better.

Many of the examples and processes shown turn out to be inconclusive, which is I suppose how things often do turn out. But at the same time that doesn't really make that interesting an example to show people.

You get to see the start of the case, some of the CSI work and then the case is in court, things does seem to jump a little. At the same time there are drawn out interviews with the workers, which don't really bring anything to the program at all and feel like filler at times.

I'd much rather watch this than something with lots of silly additional music and dramatisations, I just do think it needs some work on its pacing and editing.
