Season 1 Review:
Unsolved wants to bring a "True Detective"-like approach to these sensational cases, and winds up feeling more like the latest miniseries version of "Law & Order." That's not necessarily a bad thing, but there's an earnest banality to this USA network limited series, which tackles the story largely from a law-enforcement perspective, while operating on three separate planes.

Season 1 Review:
The adaptation never feels too reverential in any timeline, nor does the 90s setting ever feel like it’s being seen through all-knowing hindsight. It’s fresh and very grounded, and there is a clear desire by its creators to deliver as complete a picture as possible of the lead-up to the crimes and the mismanagement of the investigation. But there are too many creative visions here, and too many different stories to tell, and every time we leave a timeline behind--particularly if Poole or Tupac are involved--it’s frustrating.

Season 1 Review:
Sprawling and messy, Unsolved is ambitious and boasts a deep ensemble featuring a wide assortment of TV's finest character actors. It's also full of lead-eared dialogue and repetitive plotting and, for a series with music at its center, has a near-crippling lack of music from its two title figures. So as often as Unsolved is compelling and entertaining, it's also infuriating.
