What do you think? Are you interested in true crime? Will you watch The Genetic Detective?
CeCe you should do the Jon Benet Ramsey case. They have DNA so you would have something to work with. I enjoy your show.
Love this show, do not cancel!! Looking forward to the new series.
I love this show. Surprised by how interesting it was. Please don’t cancel this show.
Please make sure this program doe not get cancelled. It is very uplifting and frankly incredibly interesting and also a huge benefit to law enforcement. This kind of programming should get prime time. ! ! !
I love this show. What a wonderful thing CeCe is doing! Closure for so many families. Has to be the new wave in solving crimes. I also love genealogy! Keep these shows coming. Best show on TV
My husband and I have watched this program and it’s not something we would normally watch but we are totally hooked. It’s great, we love CeCe and hope the show will continue bringing closure to families and the network renews it.
This is my new must see tv show. I love that we can now get the ones that thought they’d gotten away with it. Some of these creeps were serial killers. I like 20/20, Dateline type shows and this is a nice new update to the true crime genre.
How can you not love this show?! The investigating officers who were without any leads suddenly have a suspect to pursue! In some cases, they get teary eyed when they talk about the relief they feel finally closing a horrendous cold case. I’d happily donate my DNA to CODIS if it would help create more effective tool for the police. (No, I’m not a criminal)
Love this show and all your tips on the genealogy research !
Love this show. Can’t wait for more episodes!
Great show. But don’t keep repeating all the genealogy info. Put the families on more. Love this show and got my sister to watch.
Really like this show. I believe two solved mysteries could be shown in an hour, if CeCe would not talk so much about the DNA details (who cares) and would leave out her personal information i.e.: she was a model, she is moving, her awards, etc.
I like all the little extras and I care about the DNA details. They make me feel like I could do this too. That encouragement helps me to solve the mysteries in my own cases.
So interesting. If I had a career do over, I might do this!
I’m a big fan of true crime that is well presented. I’ll be following this one for sure.
F a n t a s t i c! Stayed up,late to wtch and it was worth it!
Agreed. Definitely a good program for folks that are into true crime investigations.
