The Murder Tapes

I watch every single investigation show on tv. If you are obsessed like me you know that a lot of shows just reuse old stories and edit them differently. This show does not! All new stories. The best editing I've seen in a long time. Lots and lots of different kinds of footage and real audio which sets this apart from all other shows. Many shows use the same clips over and over and drag out the story or use reenactments. This show uses Officer bodycam which makes you feel like you can do your own investigating from the beginning, seeing the crime scene and talking to witnesses/suspects. So good!

Honestly , i watched a lot of crime shows and investigations but this show is simply one of the most entertaining shows and i Couldn't just get off the screen and leave those remaining episodes so i Watched it within One whole day unstoppable ...

I've watched many episodes and I am hooked. The narrator is great, the eerie music is perfectly timed, the format is consistent and chronologically bang on, the drone views are excellent for the viewer to get the lay of the land and actual locations of events and the interviews of Officers are so well done. A-plus and I hope this series continues cause it shows us what happens in real life. I've watched other crime shows like American Justice and Cold Case Files and those were my favourite when Bill Curtis did all the narration as well as Peter Thomas. They will always be the best but now those shows are not the same without them so I've gone elsewhere and happy to find Murder Tapes. Excellent portrayal of how police process a murder from start to finish. Well done.

I've binge watched a LOT of these types of series, and this one is the best I've seen so far. The interviews of the victims' families and friends are well done and sympathetic, as well as tastefully produced. Even the interviews with some law enforcement is done well. Other series fail in this area.

What I have observed though is the lack of professionalism of some of the emergency operators. I'd say half of the 911 calls played here are questionable at best. The operators have attitudes or ask really odd questions in the middle of these calls. It makes me hesitant to ever dial 911 if I ever have an emergency. One caller was asking for assistance and the operator kept asking what color the victim was, which was not visible to the caller, which he repeated to the dense operator more than once. They never ask if the caller is safe or in danger, they just ask questions off a script.

I do recommend this series for people who like this type of "entertainment".

We need more series like this ID! Most people like to see the real footage. NOT the recreation! Thats why people watch crime shows...because its real life. They dont want to see actors playing roles. You have some great shows, but this one is my favorite.

PLEASE have more like this one, thanks!
