I was nearly in a pleasure-induced coma.Īnd when I watched it (with my daughter), I thought I’d died and gone to heaven. So, imagine my thrill when I found out that a miniseries based on the book of the great true-crime writer, Ann Rule, was about to be made. By the time she was in high school and studying for her SATs, she thought she’d have to sacrifice our, um, guilty pleasure to study.īeing a considerate mother, I told her that she could always take the SATs by how often would she get to see the premiere of a miniseries about teenage killers? She said I was a bad influence.īad influence? How many mothers would be so considerate as to pry open the lock on their child’s bedroom door when she was studying to carry in a portable TV so she could watch a true-crime miniseries?īelieve me – you don’t need to know astrophysics when you know which TV movies Meredith Baxter, Farrah Fawcett, and Rachel Ward starred in. When my daughter was little, we got hooked on the Sunday night TV true-crime miniseries. To prove to you how much I love true crime, I’ll expose myself (well, figuratively). This Sunday night, they totally redeem themselves in my eyes by beginning a two-part, true-crime miniseries, “And Never Let Her Go,” by my favorite true-crime writer, Ann Rule. THERE is a God! I know this because CBS has finally figured out that Sunday nights belong to true crime.
