The Killing Season (2016)
magically_delicious 6 points 4 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

This Crime series plays like a documentary. The two “leads” are documentarians themselves (Rachel Mills produced another documentary, “Hell in the Heartland: What Happened to Ashley and Lauria” 2019, similar to this one; Joshua Zeman produced/co-produced “Cropsey” 2009 and the non-fiction “Mysterious Skin” 2004). It is a very engrossing study on serial killings across the United States, and how mass murders, any murders, for that matter, are not mandatorily entered into a comparative nationwide database, even though one exists (ViCAP). This series consults not just WebSleuth participants, but the brilliant profiler Peter Brendt. I would love to see more of this type of show, if not a season 2. Highly recommended to all true crime buffs for its authenticity and watchability.
