Drawn out
alexdalvara14 November 2021
TV show is so boring and drawn out. It is just them going back and forth, accusing each other and saying "I don't want to talk about it" "it's too dark to talk about" "he won't talk about". Seems like they were trying to drag it out as long as possible. Maybe they all wanted attention.

Pack of fools drawing conclusions from thin air!
Clemmie882 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This series is laughably frustrating in that every person involved in the investigation spouts one inane "conclusion" based on nothing after another. Half the series everyone is insisting one poor woman must have been involved because she drove Andrea over the bridge at 3:00 am. Woops! Turns out the idiot telling everyone this is a fact because she saw the toll receipt herself was too stupid to see it said 3:00 PM!! Don't get me started on the retired cop who is about as smart as his girlfriend who saw the toll receipt. They try to draw you in by not so subtly inferring the cartel is the culprit. Absurd! Cartel wouldn't waste their time on this. Poor family needs to get far away from these fools.

Slow But Steady, Dysfunctional Family Exposed, Need More
CarlyGirl7216 January 2022
I knew nothing about this case until I watched this. Slow and steady narrating, just wish the producers had asked the family more follow up question - and tied up loose ends. I definitely have more questions, which led me to the various social media groups dedicated to Andrea's case. Be cautious of the groups fun by the family...

What is clear is that Andrea's story desperately needed to be told. Sadly, no thanks to Andrea's family (specifically her sisters and mother), her story doesn't have an ending just yet. Many thanks to the people behind the documentary - hopeful this will put much needed pressure on the Louisville Police Department to solve this case.

A follow up episode or two is needed!

Nauseating Slow, Overly Drawn Out, Dreadfully Dull
cdeanroane23 October 2021
OK this show is one of those that could be told in a good 45 minute episode. However for this they chosen to pull in every body and their brother to give a comment or opinion that is takes 4 episodes. Which is why this show is a non starter from the get go! Not to mention all the social networking and their feeling and then arguments that ensue! One get the feeling that the woman ran away to away from the crowd of losers that suppose be her best friends!

I turned it off

Warning: Spoilers
I kept watching and just became more confused. They'd introduce characters but wouldn't say exactly their relationship to Andrea. They were vague and deliberately deceiving with this production. I paused and went ahead and read the reviews and stories about this show and Andrea herself. Apparently they are no closer to an answer today as when they made this show. No point in watching 4 episodes of a show that has no conclusion or even tantalizing facts. Very misdirected show. Poor production also.

Way too drawn out
riversep31 October 2021
Characters seems reasonable and story-line is ok but is too drawn out into multiple episodes with too much emphasis on endless public opinions and social networking comment, which makes it feel slow and uninspiring to watch.

Why and so frustrating!!!!!
kieraeric2 January 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Why was this show done it was all speculating with no police involvement? Confusing and was so lame. Seriously all over the place. Waste of time! Why on earth do these incredibly narcissistic retired cop and girlfriend/founder of the organization where Andrea volunteered, have anything to do with this case? So bizarre they haven't been involved and now they investigate like they think they should be entitled to come back to town and take the Private Investigator's hard work he did on his own time for themselves? I think at first the PI was willing to talk to them as was everyone involved, but they were acting so entitled and immediately coming off like they were owed this and now in charge and everyone else was stupid, they were so annoying and no one asked them to do this unless the producers did but that wasn't clear either and then nothing came out if it OMG! The PI probably did all this work and knew all this stuff but was right in not sharing so much information to not ruin the case for the police. Also the ex cop was so judgmental he speculates on hearsay so he says because she did drugs and slept with men she is now not "like the girl Next-door"??!!# then talks crap about everyone even the dad what a shmuck! Then the girlfriend says that Andrea spiraled of of control because she left town- she doesn't know that !!?!&$OMG so frustrating! I guess this show was about them? Since they were making this all about them it was so weird! This is way to long and repetitive- very sad for the Dad but the sisters turned their back on her when she needed their help. Plus it is so obvious that the sister and boyfriend did it and they are the number one suspects so we go thru this 4 hour show for something that could be told in 45 min !!!And pls I hope we never have to see these fools ever again! Although I liked the PI he and his bro should have a show if anyone - because they were at least likable and behaved like real investigators. But the cops are clearly on this case - so why at the end of the show is Joe still spouting his opinions acting like he is going to solve this OMG I will never get this time back I'm so annoyed!

Well done documentary
jessica_lynn_corby1 November 2021
I love how this documentary was done. I became very invested in the story and in her. After the first episode I was hooked, constantly thinking about her and couldn't wait for the next episode and the next.

You can tell that the people who put this together cared about Andrea and her story. They provided a lot of content and detailed information leading up to her disappearance and all the angles of what may have caused her disappearance to happen.

Her family (sister and father) carry a lot of guilt but the love they have for Andrea is deeply felt. Her father has an unwavering hope to find her. Her friends love and care greatly for her and have done so much to try and find answers. Andrea is an amazing person. I hope that they all find some peace and happiness in the loving memories that they carry with them of her everyday ❤

Confusing AF
My-Two-Cent25 March 2022
Is this real? The so-called members of this missing in America group seem to be dysfunctional and more focused on creating attention for themselves then actually wanting to help find not just Andrea but help finding anyone.. I tried to do a search on anyone they've actually found but couldn't find any numbers.. Also why are these amateur sleuths talking about doing dangerous "undercover" work especially a mother of two? Then you have a mysterious fire at the P. I.'s office that ends up burning all the notes and recordings of the missing woman.. I feel for the missing woman because in every picture they show of her she has what would be considered a smile but not a single one reaches her eyes and it looks like she's turning a frown into a smile.. They try and build this OMG we found something feeling towards the end of every episode trying to make you feel like the answer is in the next episode only to further the frustration of nothing happening..

I wondered if this was real.... SPOILERS

Warning: Spoilers
What a bunch of weirdos... with the exception of the retired homicide detective.

First,,,, what a crap sister, Erin, is for making Andrea leave after 1am, to try and access a door that was locked and no amount of knocking brought those morons to open the door for Andrea.... I mean, where did they expect her to go, she was living there?? It makes no sense to turn your sister away when she's clearly distraught and locked out of her place of residence. Deplorable.

I'm disgusted by Erin, I find myself grateful that she isn't part of my family. Erin should feel guilty, every moment of each day....

Second.... Andrea's family seem to lack any compassion and are selfish, as well as, think it's okay to browbeat.... What kind of Father tells his daughter "your children are better off with their fathers'" and she (Andrea) needed to do this and that to get her life on track. It's not like she was out drinking and drugging and sexing herself around town... And he hopes that his harsh criticism didn't run her off??? What an idiot!

Third... The PI, Tracy, now he is a piece of work. Dishonesty and yuckiness oozes from him and his brother. Just when the show producers demand Tracy to turn over the files on Andrea's missing case,,, his office burns in a fire?? Come on!! REALLY!?!?

I could list several more indicators where these people fall short of common decency.

This show is a microcosm of what's wrong with our society.... The Lack of compassion, morality and denigrating what a family unit should be thru unconditional love, support, understanding, etc....

These people are pretty disgusting specimens of humanity.

The interviewer is awful and it's disjointed
HR20237109611 February 2024
There is an "interviewer" in a mask shown in the starting scenes who is clearly in the wrong job and lacks the proper skill sets to be interviewing people. Asks pointless questions and no understanding of appropriate or tactful human interaction. This continues in other scenes. Overall I found the story to not follow a logical order or leave a meaningful impression on an audience. I had to turn it off, it's just hard to watch and that's not because of the nature of the documentary. It's disappointing that we cannot get better coverage for missing persons, murders, and other major crimes, and this one just missed its chance to be impactful.
