Anyone watching this?

 

If so, did you also listen to Serial?  Curious which you liked better, thought was done better.

I think I'm up to date on this.  I liked Serial better than I like Jinx so far.  Just not as gripping or as intriguing, IMO, but still a ways to go in their story I'm sure.

I think it's ending after this week... but maybe I have that wrong.

Seems like they did a good job of interviewing all parties... getting people on the record. The only real intrigue to me is seeing how he was able to buy himself out of convictions.

In the court of public opinion, doesn't seem to be a lot of room for doubt.

Watch Robert Durst in The Jinx's Holy Shit Mother of God Final Scene

 

Spoilers, naturally.

That's unbelievable. And I haven't even been watching.

I've only watched the first episode but that headline makes me want to catch up real quick.

I thought it was interesting but kind of meh until the last 5 minutes of the penultimate episode and then the final episode was gripping, and obviously the final moments are absolutely insane.  It's such a shocking ending that it makes me question the truthfulness of it.  I mean, the guys making the movie couldn't have written a more climactic ending.
