IndieWire's Millions of Screens

Is The Golden Age of True Crime Docuseries Really Golden?


Listen Later

On this week's episode of Millions of Screens, Libby talks about a dangerous trend she's noticed in the true crime docuseries genre: bloated episodes. Based on a viewing of Netflix's 'The Keepers' and revisiting HBO's 'The Jinx,' Libby notes what's been missing in the most current crop of true crime documentaries, including Netflix's 'Tiger King,' HBO's 'The Vow' and Showtime's 'Love Fraud.' Additionally, Ben and Libby talk about Film Independent's decision to add five television categories to this upcoming year's Indie Spirit Awards, and as a bonus, Executive Editor Ann Donahue (IndieWire's Corgi Correspondent) stops by to give us her thoughts on the first images released from season four of Netflix's 'The Crown.'
