To Catch a Killer

The team has the work ethic of the old school cops with the technology of today. They give much deserved hope to families looking for answers and peace and forward all their findings to law enforcement with hopes the case can be solved and closed.

These real cases are begging to be solved and these fresh eyes are exactly what they need. Fantastic topic, fantastic team and well produced. Each case is painstakingly chosen from the vast number of unsolved cases in Canada and family are kept well informed and kept in the loop at all times. Unlike the police, this team is willing to share any information they can with the family. This show has a vast supply of cases to choose from already and will be bringing peace to so many people

Very cool premise. Pretty looking cop with lots of letters after his name becomes prof and writer and turns to mentoring young scientists in solving cold cases. No doubt some cops have some explaining to do once these cases get looked at again *but the show is very respectful and is not tabloid armchair quarterbacking cases like other show. all in all a very emotional show. A lot of bleeping like other reality shows but in this case its not b/c of swearing but to keep the info under wraps so killers don't know the show/cops are on to them.if you like anything to do with cold cases or forensics this show is prob more real than any of the; My only complaint is that there needs to be follow-up episodes on what happened with tho info and tips!!

I work in a courthouse on the West Coast & there was a lot of buzz about this show last week among cops, lawyers, and what not. Caught the debut on Sat night & was blown away. Looks different than any series on TV and was very emotional. Recreations are chilling and family scenes very powerful. The cast like any reality show is regular everyday people and not actors but they all have some special skill that is of use when looking at cold cases everyone else has forgotten about. They all try experimental methods to try to get new momentum or uncover new evidence on the case over a 6 week period before making the reveal to the family and releasing new info to the public to try and get tips going again. The host is intense & stunning and apparently this started as a university class based on the publicity I've seen. Looking forward to this being avail as a box set.

I've seen every ep of this series' first season and it is very moving for a true TV show. Really interesting stories for those of us who have a fondness for history and social justice. Pace is quick and the family scenes heartfelt. Will probably buy the season on iTunes to re watch but am hoping for updates on cases soon, either through the show's FB page or media coverage. There is a big range of victims who's cases the crack team of experts with their young professor leader look at and dig into. There are the usual young co-eds killed by psychos but also elderly victims, middle aged men and more. The show does not discriminate and does their best to not make the police look lazy. I actually think they are more respectful to history than they need to be but they also have old cops appear as guests on the show so I guess they need to be diplomatic. The host is also a cop (or was) and no doubt doesn't want to show up his friends. Very emotional and stylish and actually very hard to believe this was produced in Canada considering how slickly cut it is. Being in HD and having major US network backing obviously helps. Not your typical Canuck show that's for sure!

This show needs to air more often because I just can't get enough of it! The whole concept is so intriguing and fascinating. Using other members of the society to help solve cold cases is a creative idea and one which allows for everyday people to make a difference in their communities. The victims of these families only ever want one thing: for the offender to be caught and for justice to be served. Michael Arntfield has allowed for this hope to not be empty, but instead be fulfilled. There is no such thing as a cold case for Arntfield and his team, it is merely a "yet to be solved" case, as they take all the steps necessary to find the culprit. Through their ingenuity, they take fighting crime to a whole other level. These are ordinary people doing extraordinary things. They really show the meaning of what true perseverance and hard work entails as they attack an old case with fresh eyes. Highly recommend watching!
