I had to Google it. I knew of the BTK killer, but I did not know specifics.



Yeah, i figured there were probably going to be a decent number of younger people on the board that were still too young to remember the BTK killer. I was too young for his actual crimes, but i remember the news of his capture and reading all of the articles in the mid 2000's.

I also don't really think of him as being that infamous when compared to some of the other serial killers, so it's curious as to why they've chosen to place such an emphasis on him within the show. Can't wait to see how that plays out in the coming seasons.

I just wish there were 10 more episodes. that world and those characters had me totally hooked, and i didn't want it to end.

I watched it all. The interesting part is the interviews with real Life characters like Kemper and butros. Also the development of psychological profiling is interesting.

However outside of holt Macallany the acting is atrocious. The 2 female characters are bad. The gf of Ford is abysmal and serves no purpose to the story. Fast forward anytime she shows up.

Just finished the season and really enjoyed it. I’m starting to have a really hard time liking Holden, but that’s probably on purpose.

Contrary to some here, I like Debbie’s storyline because I think she shows Holden’s transformation from curious to functioning psychopath.

I also agree that the acting leaves a bit to be desired. Really enjoy Kemper and Tench. Their acting is top notch, imo.
