IgnisExcubitor Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Anyone watched this? The trailers look darn interesting and it's getting top reviews. David Fincher and Asif Kapadia have directed few episodes. I am going to binge watch this during this week's holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgnisExcubitor Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 Just finished watching this and enjoyed it. This is not your typical serial killer thriller. It's a drama. It showed the early beginnings of the behavioural science department of FBI, when they were trying to create profiles for serial killers. Something which they could use to solve or prevent future crimes. So this series is slow but very intriguing. At times it's unsettling, especially when you listen to the serial killers being interviewed. Their reasons and motivations are sick, but the fact that they seem like normal people is so troubling. The FBI duo also solve few cases on the basis of their research(it's a good sub plot) but again nothing is played to the gallery. The acting is good. Loved the arc of the main character from being a studious lad to becoming a jerk. But the bloke that plays serial killer Ed Kemper steals the shows. More importantly the ending sets up perfectly for the next season, where we might have an actual manhunt of a killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Main character seems emotionless. Can't stand him. Especially going back to his GF after she cheated on him. What a mug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely couldn't stand her for some reason. For me, one of the most unlikeable characters in the recent times. As for the lad, as the series went on, he looked more and more like Milo Yiannopoulos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
