Jena Friedman in True Crime Story: Indefensible (2021)

Jena Friedman travels the country in this true crime series. It's less of a whodunit and more of a "Why does this keep happening?" show. She digs deep to learn how these cases reveal the flaws in our sometimes dysfunctional criminal justice system.

Jenna

Let's focus on the content and the material of the show instead of the host. Television is just that. The suspennsion of disbelief. As a survivor of true crime, I can tell you that if these people are like me, they do not want to relive the experience by talking about it with her or anyone else. I have been approached several times to tell my story and I don't want to relive it. Focus instead on the miscarriage of justice and what you can do to prevent these things from happening to you or your loved ones and pray that you don't end up like me or the survivors on the show. Bottom line if you don't like the show ok simple! Don't watch it.

Get a new host.

I like the humor.. it's just not in the show.. sorry. Get a new host who actually has some empathy to the victims and victims families and friends. I'd give the show more stars if it was someone different or if she took it more seriously. Which I know she's a comedian, so that's what she's supposed to do, but I just don't enjoy it on this show. I enjoyed Hilarie on her birthday episodes.

Oh dear, Jena isn't popular. YOU GO GIRL!!

This is a True Crime Story that's a bit off kilter. Jena Friedman is smart and can volley with the best of them - except Gloria Allred. HA! Gloria was having none of Jena's volley's, but did hit the answers back very firmly and wisely. I appreciated the way Jena handled being handled by Allred.

Friedman IS funny and witty. Maybe a bit too much at times. But that's her and this is her so, so take it or don't watch it - your choice.

I was impressed with how the men took her volleys - very well!

Jena - Maybe you should become a lawyer. Have you thought about it? I see a program in it for you!!!

Get a different host

I actually don't mind the sarcasm the host brings... but her lisp is super annoying!!! (Dear lord have we hit the real-life Harrison Bergeron moment of hosts that aren't the best?😬) Also, she's super agressive and condescending in her interviewing.... and with a more professional interviewer, they could prob have a better outcome and more thoughtful discussions. This would make it a much better series!

But I gave it a higher score than 1-for-the-awful-host because I do like the material and what it's trying to expose! With a better and more professional presenter, this could actually be a great series.

Get rid of the host

I couldn't even get beyond S01E01. She seems to have come to a conclusion about what she hopes to investigate even before she has started. She may be digging at the truth, and that is commendable, but you can see that she already has a bias and is pushing her own theory before unfolding the facts. The tone of flippancy and sarcasm is appalling. Along with, or maybe because of, her absolute disdain for the people she interview. She seems to be full of conceit that it overwhelms any of the validity of what she is trying to prove. It might be better if someone else were to do the narrative. If only for that annoying voice.
