Bodies: 'You're Dead Already' (2023)
Season 1, Episode 1
5/10
Interesting story, poorly told
19 October 2023
This kind of story, spanning over three incidents in over 130 years can't be properly presented by telling it haltingly through flashbacks timed for each advancement of the case by the police. The director makes it worse with split screens of scenes of police procedures 130+ years apart. That is an attempt to make the story intelligible to people who can't follow a simple progression.

Why should the story be spoonfed to viewers as though we are all intellectually challenged? The method reveals more about the production staff than it does of the viewers. If we needed this kind of dragged out explanation and presentation, then none of us would be capable of operating the necessary technology to view the series on a streaming service.

I'm tempted to just stop viewing this series, but the story has potential, so...
