Crime/Mystery/Thrillers Coming to (and Leaving) Netflix in February 2017

By Crime HQ

January 30, 2017

February is the month for love, which means Netflix went heavy on the romantic comedies and feel-good love stories. But love isn't all ooey-gooey and heartwarming—where's the crimes of passion, the murderous couples, and the bloody Valentine? Oh well. Season 1 of American Crime Story is worth checking out. And, at least it's one month…

What Is Your Favorite True Crime Series?

By Crime HQ

August 23, 2016

Reading about a fictional murder in a mystery novel doesn't resonate the same way that exploring the details and evidence of a real-life homicide does. In true crime, we can't just close the book and convince ourselves that the evil is only on the page. There's something about the relatability of the victim—while we may…

American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson 1.10: “The Verdict” Episode Review

By Spyridon P. Panousopoulos

April 6, 2016

This week, the final episode of American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson starts with a warning that it contains strong language and nudity. I instantly pictured Marcia Clark.

American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson 1.09: “Manna from Heaven” Episode Review

By Spyridon P. Panousopoulos

March 30, 2016

As we hurtle toward the predestined conclusion of The People v. O.J. Simpson, we wonder if they will pull a Quentin Tarantino, à la Inglorious Basterds, where they just decide—screw the facts. We’ll make revenge porn instead! Yeah, probably not. We open this week’s episode with O.J. on Current Affair—a decent news show from the…

American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson 1.08: “A Jury in Jail” Episode Review

By Spyridon P. Panousopoulos

March 23, 2016

This week, like a few weeks back, we get a re-run of Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World on FX before this week’s episode of The Juice v. The Peeps. Why exactly FX feels they need to consistently pair this show with a movie that stars a comic book adaptation of a mythical being that is…

American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson 1.07: “Conspiracy Theories” Episode Review

By Spyridon P. Panousopoulos

March 16, 2016

What do OJ and the Donald Trump have in common (other than Trump being as orange as actual OJ)? Well, we are looking at people whose own fan base care about what? Their own issues, that’s what. The Donald gets away with outright, non-filtered verbal diarrhea—and the Juice? Well come on…he got away with murder…
