True Crime Investigatory Shows
Forensic, detective stories, whodunnit, true crime...
These are ones I enjoy and meet the criteria I like in a show: concise, not overly loud or repetitive, and a higher quality than the cheesy ID shows with the dumb theme songs and hokey narrator.

- CreatorRobert LangRobert SandlerStarsCraig MorrisDiane D'AquilaRay LandryTrue-life Canadian crime investigations, unraveling the last 3-days of a victim's life, in an effort to find vital clues, which lead up to the cause - as well as - the crime, itself.Canadian crimes. Sometimes you need some from another part of the world and these are interesting and well done, production wise.
- CreatorPaul DowlingStarsPeter ThomasTom BevelSkip PalenikA series featuring detailed accounts on how notable crimes and diseases were solved through forensic science.My all time FAVORITE.
- CreatorScott SternbergScott WeinbergerStarsPaula ZahnTom ScorzoneRoger HervasAward winning journalist Paula Zahn unravels shocking crimes interviewing those closest to the case including lawyers, the victim's family, and detectives.
- StarsMichelle ReneeBill SpadeJosh LongI Survived incorporates interviews with stylized recreations to tell the stories of people who overcame unbelievable circumstances that changed their lives forever.I like the ones about surviving evil and trauma, not so much the ones where people got stuck in the elements. A lot of the times I get annoyed because people can be so dumb and it’s not surprising that they get in trouble out in nature because they weren’t prepared and took a big risk- idiots. The trauma tales are scarier because most of the time, there was nothing the victim did wrong and it was a terrible random occurrence
- StarsCharisma CarpenterRaven CinelloJoshua EnglishCharisma Carpenter is the survivor of a real-life incident she suffered more than 20 years ago. The actress and two friends were swimming on the state beach in 1991 when they were violently attacked by an armed serial rapist.Charisma sounds ditsy a lot of the time and makes strange word choices when describing the guests. My favorite one she said was, “..She was an ambitious young schoolteacher..” lol I have only respect for teachers but I wouldn’t call my friends who teach “ambitious” before other adjectives like “determined” or “enthusiastic”.
BUT the stories from the survivors are some of the most intense and amazing tales I’ve ever heard of and it made me realize how strong our bodies and wills can be - StarsTarioa Van WeesenbeekPhil JordanFrank LongoReal-life detective thrillers which combine stylized dramatic reconstructions, unique archive and compelling interviews with key characters.
