Forensic Files II

Forensic Files has been one of my favorite guilty pleasures for a long time. I've probably watched 80% of all the episodes and frequently watch re-runs. I'm pleased to say this is a worthy successor - or really, continuation - of the original. The new narrator is fine, but he's no Peter Thomas (but I'm also glad he isn't trying to replicate Thomas's distinct voice or narration style). It's interesting to see how far technology has come since the original series aired. For any fan of the original series, or any fan of true crime shows, this one is worth the watch.

I just found this and I'm over the friggin MOON!!! My true crime obsession was kick started by this show and I have watched millions many others and some right corkers too but I'll always hold a special light to Forensic Files

The new season just ticked all the right boxes for me. I am deaf so the narration was never a thing for me - I understand how it will bother some of you but me? Man I'm just so happy this is back.

Peter Thomas is Dead. So he can't narrating from the the grave people. I read a lot of the reviews and I saw that people are not aware about that. It was different in the beginning without him but it's getting better and I am used to the the new narrator. I like it and I am still learning a lot of forensic techniques that is very impressive! I am glad that the show is back and I can see new cases! Thank you HLM for bringing back with new cases. I always like the format of the show because it tells the story in 30 min and it's not dragging.

I am such a fan of the original show - I have watched the episodes over and over. Peter Thomas' narration was awesome and so soothing to listen to.

The new episodes do a surprisingly reasonable job of continuing the FF legacy in all areas except the narration. Bill Camp is not terrible but HLN really could have done a MUCH better job in finding someone better to replace Peter Thomas. Until they address this, the updated show will never become the classic/beloved show that the original one is. Sorry Bill but you and your cold, stilted narration needs to go!

R. I. P., Peter Thomas. Peter Thomas was a superior narrator. That being said, I HATE FF2. It is Horrific! I tolerated barely 20 minutes of an FF2 episode. What made the original so special was that it was pre- DNA, CODIS. The case were solved without current computer technology. The archival enhanced everything. FF2 is a Joke. The narrator sounds like he has a SPEECH IN PEDIMENT. There are so many factors about FF2 that I am disappointed with that it would take a lifetime to list them here. I am only watching the Original FF.!! That's it. That's all!!! Hail to the Original Show 👍
