Le tueur d'à côté

This is the most bizarre show. The overall production is done well enough until music and narration are added. It's really like watching America's Funniest Home Videos narration desperately trying to find the most pathetic jokes while a hideous crime and the subsequent investigation is detailed. The music does match at all either. It is often some upbeat or flighty song playing while the crime scene and murder is shown. What in the world? Discovery does so many good things. How could this horrible production get past them? I really hate it because the stories themselves are very interesting and while you're developing an emotional connection to the victim's family this ridiculous narration and music is playing. It's extremely disrespectful.

Fantastic content BUT narrative makes it out to be a joke. TOTALLY DISRESPECTFUL TO THE CASES.

If I were ever murdered, I would NOT want this SHOW, to broadcast my murder. You will have someone murdered cruelly and yet the narration is full of jokes and silly puns which seem totally out of place. It contains trivial information on the Police Officers on what they do in their spare time which has nothing to do with the case, only just so they can add another silly pun. This takes all the seriousness out of the actual murder. There is just no respect for the victim or victims of the murder and the narration is full of cheesy one-liners. On one episode about the murder of a mother while her 3 year old child was present and survived. The 3 year old mentions a name of the suspect and the narrator jokingly adds "Out of the mouth of a babe". It beggars belief how it finds murder so funny and the narration is way too upbeat with its jovial jests. Avoid this show, as it trivializes all the facts and people involved in it.

I like this show overall, but holy hell chill with the puns and the narration. On top of the narration, the music doesn't fit the mood/theme often times. Upbeat music when talking about finding bodies? The stories/interviews are solid, but I don't care that Lieutenant Whozits likes to play strip poker on Friday nights and enjoys long walks on the beach to unwind....the theme/mood is everywhere, and they just try to make EVERYTHING into a pun. Feel bad for the people that agreed to do interviews cause it just feels disrespectful a lot of times.

I can't believe this show is even on the air. I just watched one episode about the investigation surrounding the sexual assault and murder of a little girl. The narrator makes horrible puns and jokes throughout the episode. I'm really confused as to why this format was approved for something with such serious subject matter. The episodes are very disjointed. They will be in the middle of talking about the investigation, and then randomly add in personal facts about the investigators. For example, two or three minutes were dedicated to talking about how the investigator was really good at making homemade pizza. It's a very odd mishmash of a show.
