HBO misfire


This was felt more like fox news than HBO. Exploitative. This documentary missed out on some great opportunities to examine the perspective on mental health in our country or even the right to privacy. Just felt like it was focused on fear. What was the point?

I didn't like it either. They kept showing close ups of food & one time u could hear the CC chewing so loud it was hilarious.

BTW, those girls CC & his wife knew looked like they have never committed crimes, which brings me to this point:

I always thought a police database would contain only people with a criminal past? This doc made me think that ANYONE can be in their database. Even if we live a criminal-free life, are we in their database?

Have we lost all privacy? Or is this just for NYC?

When he was eating that sub...that was definitely loud. LOL. And I don't mean a submariner, but the sub sandwich. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Fried Namor with cheese and extra tartar sauce. Yumm.

I'm pretty sure the only thing found in those databases are addresses, social security number, and IF there's a warrant out or something. Pretty much like a phonebook and stuff you could find out if you google the same person.

You see cops use it all the time in movies/tv-shows when they're exwife is dating someone new eg. I'm 100% sure every cop in real life has also used it to look up someone they know just because they're bored.
