Explained simply
True crime television documentaries use real criminal cases as the subject of a factual programme. They may examine the events, the people involved and how the case was investigated or covered by the media.
Programmes such as OJ: Made in America and Tiger King have brought the genre to wide audiences. Viewers may value them for different reasons, including their storytelling, reporting or treatment of the people at the centre of a case.
The Guardian is a British newspaper that publishes features about television and culture. Reader suggestions can help show which programmes have made an impression and may provide material for future coverage.
