We got 20 minutes into the Manson murders and had to turn it off.

The narration was all over the place - back and forth through time and constantly repeating. If there isn't enough content for an hour long show without the repetition then it probably isn't worth the time to make. Sadly, there is oodles of material on Manson, so it shouldn't have been a problem.

The reenactment, likewise, was played over and over again - presumably for the shock value. It was gruesome and unnecessary - once was certainly enough.

To top it off, the visual effects were a disaster. Herky jerky movements and transitions designed - I presume - to increase the dramatic tension and mystery. All it achieved was to trigger a migraine.

Other effects included what amounted to 1960's style cartoon laser beams shooting from peoples eyes/faces. The first time I saw it, I couldn't believe it. Then they did it again, and again.

You insult the intelligence of your audience with this style of production.

I watch a lot of History show on cable, and it infuriates me as to their inaccuracies.. Even the History Channel, one I hear all the time is the amount of soldiers killed at Gettysburg, 51,000 is almost always thrown out. WRONG there were 51,000 Casualties, which is made up of the following

Of these casualties, 7,058 were fatalities (3,155 Union, 3,903 Confederate). Another 33,264 had been wounded (14,529 Union, 18,735 Confederate) and 10,790 were missing (5,365 Union, 5,425 Confederate It is sad, when editors, producers cant get easily verifiable facts correct do your homework
