good back-story, and good acting

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

They always just agree with whatever the police have already concluded. They don't have any new evidence or special access. I also agree with the other reviews that they pump up the emotional drama in an insincere way. I love most ID shows but this one's weak.

These two start from the very beginning catching the audience up on the past, present and then watch the fallout of the new findings and or confirmations. This is entertainment, every series has it's own spin on drama so I don't even try to base my rating on the drama. The true emotional intent and their approach to the final theory are excellent and gives the viewers hope that justice will soon be served. Every episode may not keep all of us sitting on the edge of our seats but I have no doubt that Derek, Kris and the ID team will raise the bar in the hunt for justice with every cold case. The show is up to date and uses modern technology in criminal investigations. It has a young cast and crew that are working hard to crack the case and continuously keeps the viewers in the know.

I watched Season 1, Episode 1, "Little Girl Lost." I have watched quite a few true crime shows for years. This was one of the worst in my memory of all of them. Seemed to be just a vehicle for the "investigators" to be on a TV show. After TWO HOURS, there was no conclusion reached, and all they had was circumstantial evidence against someone they actually named on national TV. I would think that person would have a legitimate lawsuit against them for slander. Amazing. The end scene, which others have mentioned about the crying investigator, was terrible, with them obviously trying to get the mother to cry or become emotional while they told her the most brutal details of her young daughter's death. Since they couldn't get her to cry, one of them did. Just awful. Please do not watch this show and give them reason to continue with it. It is an embarrassment to the other genuine investigative shows and the Investigation Discovery Channel.

Agree with previous post of fake crying. That was difficult to watch, and undermined credibility. In addition, I'm not sure how responsible it is to tell family members about accused when there's no indication they went to the police first. Shouldn't the authorities be involved before they give out names? What if someone in the victim's family decides to take matters into their own hands (especially since it's been a cold case for years)? Seems pretty irresponsible to me. I like many of the ID channel shows, but this one's a miss. I probably won't watch again.
