This show has become less and less interesting and compelling for several reasons: The reporters keep repeating themselves using the same interviews over-and-over within the same hour-long show. The indication is the producers don't have enough footage and/or content for the show's timeframe. Hence, as "fillers" they keep repeating the same segments during the show. This redundancy makes 20/20 painfully slow and much more boring than shows like Dateline or 48 Hours. Another new 20/20 feature pushing the show even further down the rating scale is its weird use of cartoon images throughout the broadcast depicting various scenes within the story. I don't know what the Executive Producers are thinking, but converting real-life videos and images into cartoon segments is incredibly irritating and distracting as it detracts from the reality of the show's intended true-life content. If I wanted to watch cartoons, I'd watch the Disney channel.
