“Both Seasons are emotionally brutal rollercoasters. Both Seasons provide first person recordings or writings that document the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of the parties involved. We know that the narrative will end in a murder or murder/suicide, yet I still listened to find out why. I thought both Seasons were able to show the frustrating reality of adults in a codependent system. Of course as outsiders we want those involved to make different and difficult decisions but they didn’t. The journalist was able to show the emotional and mental trap of each perpetrator. I don’t think that by showing this she was trying to excuse their actions to commit murder. If you had an emotional reaction to the content, if you felt frustration with how the perpetrators chose to solve their “problems” then you know the journalist provided excellent documentation.”
