  • Very good.

    I really enjoy the murder and missing cases, especially the huge number of MMIW ones. My only complaint. Please please please move the unscripted to a different location. It’s such a distraction and clogs the timeline for those who are not here for that.

  • Ok but presenters tend to get carried away with themselves

    Mostly OK but presenters have a strong tendency to get caught up in their own virtue signalling, losing sight of facts and principles of justice in pursuit of their chosen narrative line.
