    I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

    I love this show, one of the best if not the best show ever made. Why? First of all, statistics say it all, look up Wikipedia to see how many of the predators have been captured because of the show. Second of all, I think every single detail about the editing of the show is awesome, the music, the transitions, the footage itself, I feel like it is incredible. Yeah, I am not gonna lie, it gets a bit scary sometimes but that is why it is underneath the category "Crime" TV Show, right? John Walsh does a great job, has a great judgment and if you are not familiar with his story, check it out, that is why he is so great at what he does, he is very authentic.

    America's Most Wanted was great, but this is really hard to watch. The crimes are disturbing enough, but the actual techniques used in production are overkill. So it makes it hard to sit through. It's definitely too slow, but things such as super-closeups of people's mouths talking, lots of slow motion and dramatic disturbing music, and scenes really suggestive of sex and violence mixed with this, just make it unwatchable for me. The crimes are dark enough. You don't need dark, slow production techniques on top of it. It was very disappointing because I had seen it advertised originally and thought it would be a good series. In flipping through the channels I saw it tonight, and they ran two episodes where the fugitive in question had already been caught and killed. Yet they are running the episodes again.I applaud his efforts to find these criminals and put them away, but he might have a better chance to do that if the show were more watchable. The production techniques seem like they would be more appealing to people who were a little bit disturbed than to the general TV watcher.

    For a very good reason.Like the previous reviewer, the pacing of The Hunt drove me nuts, initially, and then I began to get it: this show is about presenting the crimes and criminals it profiles as nightmares. The agonizing pacing is the introduction, case by case, to each hellish violation of the crime's victims.Even so, once I understood, I still found The Hunt very hard to watch, with that pacing and the show's enormously dark patina still driving me away from the screen.Eventually, after 6 or 7 episodes, I acclimated and now view each episode as a well-crafted essay on the depravity of person or persons deliberately doing harm to another or others.Not an easy consumable - to get its full value you're going to have to invest the time and energy it takes to break through and appreciate the qualitative tone it intends to portray. It's worth it.

    After watching 30-40 minute forensic files, and being a big fan of the genre of true crime, I thought this would be a real treat. But the absolutely pondering pace of this show left me checking my watch and anxious to do something more constructive with my time. The first episode was about some killer, and they spend the first 10 minutes discussing the town in Shasta County, how quiet and peaceful it is, how it's like a paradise to many people, interviewing people about how the town is so crime-free. Ugh. I fast-forwarded to John Walsh, but he talked slowly and I sensed this was trying too hard to be some dramatic build-up instead of a documentary about true crime. Forensic Files, on the other hand, is paced well, and does not try to hit us over the head with the dramatic elements, because the shock and horror of the true crime is dramatic enough.A real bore. 3 points.
