One of my favorite channels, BTW :-)
- Marsymars 6y agoIrrespective of the OP's stance, I just don't get true crime media. I've tried a few of them, and they hold my interest about as well as CSI/NCIS, or watching a weather channel for a foreign country.
- techlaw 6y agoNo, I haven't. And rather than try to infer your implication(s) about Investigation Discovery I will ask directly: - Do they treat murder as a venue for entertainment? - Are they seemingly indifferent to the impact on victims? Because, if it was not clear, those were the points I was trying to convey about the unhealthy aspects of Quibi's show.
- HeyLaughingBoy 6y agoWell, they're definitely not indifferent to the victims. ID has a bunch of different shows, but a lot of them involve interviews with victims interspersed with the story but they certainly seem sympathetic to their situation. As far as it being a "venue for entertainment," well, the basis of the channel is crime stories, primarily murders and it would be a stretch to say that it's for educational purposes, so...
