On Episode 4 right now and I've got to say this shit is amazingly unreal. I don't want to spoil anything, but it's in every way worth it.
Anyone else watching this?

Watched the first two episodes tonight and it's fascinating, so thanks for the recommendation. I'd like it to be more objective though and it would have been interesting to hear some more about the prosecution and defence arguments that resulted in the initial sexual assault conviction. Without that, it just seems that the authorities decided it must have been the local weirdo and were blinkered into going full steam ahead to secure a conviction. | |

Man we can't even talk about discrimination or class warfare in this context. Avery family owns a huge plot of land, their own business, and are white. And they're able to afford extremely good counsel. They have all of the stuff of good ole boys, in fact. The only difference is that they have an epic history of making (legitimate) work for the police. There's every reason to understand why the police and community would have it in for the Averys. Not to justify it, but certainly to understand it. | |

I don't know how you guys are watching this. I mean it's pretty cool stuff, I can see why it would be if interest and it's good to get this kind of stuff out there. But 10 hour long episodes? This was a 90 minutes job. I'm through 2 episodes and I've lost interest. | |

I think it could have been tightened up to like 6-8 episodes. There was a lot of redundant and/or pointless shit like forcing us to watch Avery's white trash family living white trash life for minute after tedious minute. But I don't think it could have been done in two hours. | |

Serial is a great follow up for Making a Murderer. It really shows how you can tow the line and entertain both ideas of guilt and innocence unlike MAM (which pushes hard for Avery). | |

Cats don't ask to be burned aliveThrowing a cat, or any creature including a human in a fire and torturing it is sick and demented at best. There are many rednecks and people who drink, but they do not torture animals and justify that it's in character. A large percentage of murders have been found to have also tortured animals. You have never met a cat that is asking you to douse it in gasoline and oil, and then not only throw it in a fire, but hold it there which is what Avery did. An innocent animal does not want to be tortured and burned alive. What a sick statement. |

I totally agree. If you read what I wrote, you'll see that I said it was understandable. As in, I can understand those circumstances and the outcome seems plausible, given certain assumptions about rednecks and cats. | |

The Jinx is a pretty funny foil to MaM. Poor guy can't shake a shakey murder charge vrs rich guy who can't get nailed with a murder charge when he dismembered and scattered the body while hiding out as a woman living under an alias and ran after posting bail. | |

And who knows what that is, as it applies to Steven and Brendan? I dont even know what you're trying to get at here. | |

The two things that MaM really succeeds at is emotive storytelling, and highlighting the weaknesses in the criminal justice system. | |

I cannot believe that someone of Brenden's intelligence level thought, "This will be the one thing I say that will get me off scott free... I just have to innocently ask if I can go back to school after I confess." I cannot believe that he committed rape and murder, then thought that merely telling the police about it would mean that he would not face punishment. | |
