  • Used to be good

    I used to like this show but I feel like it has gone downhill recently. The hosts seem too giggly when talking about the subject matter. Ricky comes across immature and not knowledgeable about the cases at all. I feel like this show would be better with Ashley on her own (sorry to say that!).
