Crime has always been part of television’s DNA, but in global marketplaces, true crime is enjoying unprecedented levels of success across the streamers and on more traditional outlets.,” starring Julia Garner as the fake heiress Anna Sorokin , became one of Netflix’s biggest shows ever.
A&E’s “The First 48” — that is, the first 48 hours following a homicide — is still going strong after more than 20 seasons. Recently the U.K.’s Channel 4 launched its own true crime platform, True Crime on Channel 4. It also helps that with the ubiquity of bodycams and security cameras, the ability to access video footage and rely less on shadowy re-enactments of crime brings greater authenticity to true crime docus.
The series, shown by Vice in the U.S. and Channel 4 in the U.K., took 15 years from conception to completion and is typical of highend true crime docus that involve costly, time-consuming edits. “So many of our viewers are women in their 40s,” Korn says. “A lot of the victims are women … and there is this identification and affinity with the perils that women experience in society.”
Morgan says true crime TV needs to evolve to the point where there is less emphasis on the male gaze and some of the other cliches of the genre. “You don’t want to fall into the trap of ‘Here’s another rape of a blonde girl.’ When you’re developing true crime, it’s important to be aware of how the material can be sensationalized,” he says.
