Weekend Discussion Thread: Love means never having to say you're sorry (that you care about true crime)
the true crime that's worth your time
How’s your S.O./friends/family feel about your interest in true crime? Do they share it? Do they tolerate it? Do they try to talk you out of it? True-crime “shame” isn’t really a thing anymore, post-Serial, but when I started the Blotter years ago, it was because I wanted to give serious consideration to a genre that wasn’t taken seriously. Imagine my delight when my husband had not only BEEN IN an episode of Unsolved Mysteries, but watched ID all the time. (We got engaged in front of an old Dateline.)
I know some of you picked up some true crime from your parents; is it something you share with friends/family? Or is everyone else playing Celebrity and you’ve got your nose in a black paperback with red writing?
