The Docket 06.29.23 Ru Crime and Black Mirror

True-crime satire and lamming it in a cemetery

the true crime that's worth your time

RuPaul’s Drag Race’s crime-show parody, and missed opportunities; the Documentary Now!/Ru-verse cross-over; the least appropriate genre venue for true crime; multiple levels of hotel TV; Let’s Make A (Plea) Deal and “Amazing Race, but prison breaks”; performative hand-that-feeds-you biting; how much “history” tourism is really true crime.
