This show hit me in the feels far too much. I loved every minute of it.
I don't know what is going on these days. While I personally find NCIS world has got kinda dull. For me, NCIS started going down hill slowly, right back when Abbey left. NCIS L.A. was the next best for me.
However, it is still one of the best things on TV these days. I think it is unfair to compare Hawaii with NCIS viewing ratings. It was the highest rating in it's time slot. Why cancel that, because of yet another addition to the NCIS universe, before they know what ratings NCIS Origins will get? It may be a complete miss.
It would of made more sense to give Hawaii another season, to give them time to see what ratings Origins get.
They just keep making new ones, to watch established ones burn to the ground.
Is it not obvious that there isn't enough demand for the supply of another new one?
Sydney pops up, L.A drops out. Origins pops up, Hawaii drops out to make room. I really don't think that is a very good way to treat your actors and everyone else that is now without work.
I noticed the status changed to cancelled. Now it has been changed back to returning? Do you know something we don't?
I have been reminiscing and digging up TV shows from the 70s and 80s. Straight away, I noticed that the series, used to have a lot more episodes per series. I think that is one reason why so many series are being cancelled. you don't have time to get in to them, before they finish again for another year.
back then, there was 9 months on TV and 3 months off. So you would have more time to get in to the show, less time to forget everything, so less time needed to get back in to them.
The other totally unfair and stupid thing they keep doing is stopping it for 2 weeks here and a week there. People lose track and lose the show.
You want the audience to invest in the show, 1st, you have to invest in the show. Show some loyalty and respect to the people who work for you, some consistency in the days it's on.
People have kept saying that the characters haven't got much in the cohesion. I am not surprised really. They are never sure if they will be the next to face the axe.
how can the characters and actors bond, under these disloyal, disrespectful and ungrateful human calculators? I know they aren't a charity and I am certainly not saying they should keep paying good money for rubbish. But this was top in it's time slot. what more do the calculators want from a show?
If you feel like this was exploitative af like me, be sure you give it a thumbs down on Netflix. Otherwise they’ll never learn.
A terribly sad story. Instead of spending 4 hours letting YouTube conspiracy theorists blow this out of proportion, they should’ve discussed mental health a little bit more.
So, just like the Netflix "don't f**k with cats" """""documentary""""", it shows a bunch of internet... sleuths, it's the term they use in the film– and I would say crazy instead, but I wouldn't like to offend all the crazy people out there– destroying the life and almost killing a innocent man, Pablo Vergara, just so they could satisfy their inflated disturbed Ego. Congratulations to everyone involved in this, y'all freaking disgusting!
Elisa's death was treated like a hobby for a bunch of obsessed "sleuths" (I'm saying this word in my head as an insult), who fancied themselves investigators but that in truth are just a bunch of conspiracy theorists, and of the lowest caliber, because 10yo kids could invent a better story than what they tried to push. I mean, that thing about a random piece a shoe appearing at some point in the elevator video (spoiler: there's no other shoes other than Elisa)? Really? That's all you could come up with? About the timestamp: do you really think that police would disclose such an vital information to the public? Really? REALLY?
In short, they didn't contribute with anything to the investigation, just wasted people's (police) time.
The police did what they needed to do, didn't listened to those wackos, investigated with competence and respect, an example of good investigative police work.
The history of Skid Row neighborhood is actually the most interesting part of the film! I would gladly have sat though a documentary about this place, and the future of it... it could easily include the history of Cecil Hotel too, and I would watch it intently. The former resident was really interesting to listen to, sounded like he had a lot of stories to tell about both Skid Row and Cecil Hotel.
Just want to say I'm sorry for what you went through Pablo, and I hope you get better soon and that inspiration finds you swiftly.
Overall, when not talkning about police work, the actual reason behind her death, or historcal informations, it's a waste of time. And I have to say this is one of the worst docuserie I ever watched. "Don't f**k with cats" it's a masterpiece compared to this piece of filmage.
In all honesty this being 4 episodes was not necessary. We’re given lots of theories from youtubers throughout the 4 episodes. Then it ends in the last 10 minutes with “we forgot to mention how this detail that closes the case.”
Mostly okay, but too much airtime given to egocentric youtubers and their conspiracies that are only interested on themselves and being the ones finding the truth to be the hero, instead of honoring the memory of the victim.
Those people haven't done any good and caused harm. Why giving them this exposure ?
Beside that, there are interesting and caring people giving great inputs.
I don't know, this could have been a good work about mental health but instead it's wasted trying to be a thriller show.
2 hours of skeevy youtubers showing you how smart they think they are could have been cut...really is a documentary about how scummy some youtubers are.
I WANT TO BE PHRYNE FISHER.
Even after 14 years and about 300 episodes I'm still loving this show.
