TV Review: Mindhunter

I finished the first season of the Netflix Show and really enjoyed it.

It tells the story of the beginnings of what is now known as the Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) as made famous on Criminal Minds.

Mindhunter on Netflix

It stars Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany and Anna Torv (who I loved in Fringe!)

It is based on John Douglas' books from his experiences (which I have read and loved)

All in all, the show is really interesting as the Douglas character interviews people like Edmund Kemper and Richard Speck.  It highlights how new all this applying psychology to understand serial crimes and use it to catch criminals.  AND how much the Bureau had trouble accepting what they were doing. It also shows that they are learning as they go and make mistakes.

I will say that if Douglas was as arrogant as portrayed, they are lucky it worked. LOL

Looking forward to another season.
