Critical reception
In a review in The Washington Post, Emily Yahr said that the half-scripted, half-documentary hybrid format doesn't work and the show is delivering a mixed tone. Robert Owen of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said the viewers will be disappointed by the series. A review in Variety called the show more like a water-cooler gossip than actual true-crime material. Common Sense Media said the movie has a tongue-in-cheeck tone at times.
