    This show could of been a single episode of a true crime series . It simply was way way way to dragged out .

    Rather dull documentary that suffers by only looking at this tale from one side.

    This is very much Melngailis’s show and she is allowed to skate too easily away from whether, when and how she could have – should have – realised what he was doing, and escaped his clutches.

    We really wish Bad Vegan: Fame. Fraud. Fugitives. was less one-sided, but at least the side we see makes for an entertaining story.

    Smith carefully chooses his interview subjects in a way that’s sympathetic to Melngailis. ... He smartly avoids sensational techniques, letting the people involved tell their stories in a way that's more tragic than tabloid.
