Overall I found the series an interesting watch and gives you an idea of the story of Jeffrey Dahmer and his victims.

However it only gives you an idea, although it's based on a true story many parts of it have been fabricated to either make the story more dramatic or to paint the police force and justice system as all racist and homophobic. There may have been some truth to these aspects but it was overdone and clearly just another way for Netflix to push their personal biased views on others with a rewriting of true events.

I must give credit to Evan Peters on his portrayal on Jeffrey Dahmer as he done an amazing job immersing you into the series and truly making you believe you're watching a documentary and that's why I've put the score up a little.… Expand

Pretty good show. Before watching it, I had never heard of Jeff Dahmer.
I am not fan of the back and forth in chronology, but to the maker's credit, they provided date so the spectator would not be lost. Also, some scenes, like the night clubPretty good show. Before watching it, I had never heard of Jeff Dahmer.
I am not fan of the back and forth in chronology, but to the maker's credit, they provided date so the spectator would not be lost. Also, some scenes, like the night club ones, could have been shorter. On the opposite, I would have liked more interrogation scenes.
Despite its qualities, the show only gets a 6 because of the heavy woke propaganda. Ok, Balcerzak was a very bad cop and the police union had too much power; this is still not a reason to push all this propaganda.… Expand

This was way too long, and I mean that. And it's brutally flawed with the fact that to some extent it seems to be glorifying this murderer.
I'm really not sure what Ryan Murphy was trying to do.

Evan Peters is too expressionless to consider his performance to really stand out, but his work is good in its own right.

From what I see with its success on Netflix, the streaming giant clearly got what it wanted, but in some ways I think this show feels more like an introduction of this serial killer to modern audiences who had probably never heard of him and all the rest is merely the idea of combining the grotesque with something that could be considered entertainment.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Too slow but interesting enough if you want to see the causes of why Dahmer did what he did. Social environment and parental upbringing. Was he really born that way? Apart from the psychological aspect, the each episode is linked to each murder. It's more or less a bit of the same each episode but he just hones his craft. Top notch acting though… Expand
