I've watched the first two episodes of the well reviewed Netflix true crime series Unbelievable - and it is really good.
This review in The Guardian is accurate, I think. I like the way it describes the second episode as being better than mere "competence porn" - because, yes, you cannot help but feel that the first two episodes are virtually written to be police training films. (The first episode is the grating, but quite distressingly plausible, example of everything detectives could possibly do wrong in questioning a rape victim; the second episode shows a virtually perfect example of how it should be done.)
But look, the acting is really good, so far, and it is not sensationalist despite the weirdness of the crimes.
Well worth watching.
