Season 1 Review:
A series that might be too much for some people but will delight others interested in learning everything, down to every last fiber, in a case that is often overlooked or completely forgotten. It’s no-holds-barred with no easy answers. The way true-crime is meant to be seen.

Season 1 Review:
However juicy something like "Tiger King" might be, the best documentary series connect the subject to larger issues that go beyond one case. So it is with Atlanta's Missing and Murdered: The Lost Children, a look back at the child murders of 40 years ago, and the legacy and doubts that linger to this day.

Season 1 Review:
You might walk away from this series thinking that the case was correctly solved. You might walk away thinking it was merely closed to stop a race war from destroying the city. But you will definitely walk away with a clearer picture of why this story remains such a vital part of Atlanta’s history. It still feels like its final chapter has yet to be written.

Season 1 Review:
"Atlanta's Missing and Murdered" is not an easy watch, nor should it be. ... Yes, this is a true crime story, as well as one that delves into matters of guilt, innocence and a broken (often historically racist) criminal justice system — but it's also a contemplation of what closure actually looks like for those affected by violent, race-based crime.

Season 1 Review:
Atlanta’s Missing and Murdered does justice to a couple of the criticisms, and it certainly provides a more cogent picture of the city, the time, and the crimes than the haphazard and gullible Atlanta Monster podcast did two years ago. But the HBO series also succumbs to the imperatives of a plot-twist narrative. It seems driven more by the need to entertain than a desire to get at the truth.
