Dig Deeper: The Disappearance of Birgit Meier

Go see this documentary if you are a true crime series fan. It is very well documented and the story and subject are very interesting. I was glued to the screen to see the outcome. It is also very sad and frustrating because you can see that the police is not doing their job very well.

Other reviewers said that it is too long. I didn't find it too long.

Thank you Netflix once again for bringing another crime documentary.

What starts out as a missing persons case but then appears to be a murder turns out to be something even worse. That's all I can say without spoilers.

Most fun I've had watching a limited series (only four episodes) in a long time. You'll definitely be thinking about it afterward.

Straight-up documentary--no narrator, host or silly music. But what a story. Beautifully filmed too.

These Documentaries can easily be made in 1 or 2 parts. Netflix is making many 4 to 10 episode series, dragging the show unnecessarily. Speakers repeat same information in same shots as well as throughout the show.

Not only police were incompetent on this case, but also the second investigation team (group of criminal experts) was lackluster in proper investigation and searching the house. Everyone seemed blindly poked around the case. Even the victim's brother was busy for 27 years with his career and life, until he decided to check after retirement. At times he was making conflicting statements/information too!

Don't be fooled into thinking this is your run of the mill true crime story. It's so much more. Everyone should be loved as much as Birgit Meier.

I like to think that my family would have looked for me this hard. Honor to the family & loved ones of Birgit Meier.

And this documentary could have been told in two episodes. I think Netflix has a great selection of true crime docs. I must have watched every single one it has to offer. I would rate this one as one of the average ones. The storytelling is good, the production and all the other technical stuff is good. But it's way too long. I actually dozed off at the end of episode 2 and I never doze off when watching a true crime documentary.
