True Crime Adaptation Overload
First, let me say: I love true crime. LOVE it. I will eat up any documentary that exists. But I'm starting to tire of all the true crime adaptations that feel wholly unnecessary, given the real stories (and documentaries) that we watched were already so interesting.
For example, do we really need Joe vs. Carole? Tiger King was already such a spectacle, and pretty much left no stone unturned — why do we need a dramatization of something that was already SO dramatic?
And then there's Inventing Anna, and The Dropout... sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction, and so putting these in fiction form almost feels underwhelming. Am I alone here? Anyone dying to watch these?
