Review of Dark Minds

Dark Minds (2012– )
3/10
Ego fest
12 April 2014
From the early days of FORENSIC FILES and THE NEW DETECTIVES,to the not so true reenactments of shows like BEHIND CASTLE WALLS, I m a big fan of Crime TV.

As I recall the first of these (well done) reenactment crime shows was the popular series DEADLY WOMEN,featuring commentary from former FBI Profiler,CANDICE DeLONG. This is the show that introduced me to crime writer M.WILLIAM PHELPS. As time went by, the fore mentioned commentators began to seem as if they believed themselves true experts in all things criminal. DARK MINDS pushes this ego fest a step further by pitting two crime writers together to state the obvious about matters of public record whether it is relevant or not, much like the B celebrity cast of Smoking Gun's World's Dumbest. PHELPS and KELLY boring opinions at each other, and look at a speaker on the table with disgust, as if to say "i hate that we have to consult this evil serial killer." Well, I could be wrong, but "Raven's" accent sounds a lot like John Kelly's, and that would explain why a serial killer locked in the safety of a maximum security prison feels the need to disguise his voice. It Just plays out like fiction.
