A recent development in popular culture, the documentary series allows directors to use the wide canvas and tropes of episodic television to tell sprawling, complicated, and fascinating true stories. While many of us were captivated by Tiger King at the beginning of the pandemic, the story of Joe Exotic represents the tip of the iceberg when it comes to serialized true crime storytelling.

Nothing says relaxation like curling up on the couch, firing up the tube, and watching hours upon hours of tortured detectives, scheming criminal masterminds, and heroic defense attorneys standing up to the grinding gears of the State. Marshall McLuhan once described television as a “cool medium,” but we promise these shows will heat things up!

You find yourself having been pulled over by a police officer after you have had a couple of glasses of wine or beers with dinner. After asking you for your license and registration, the officer asks you, “how much have you had to drink this evening?” Do you answer the question honestly and say that you have had two glasses of wine? Do you lie and say that you have not had anything to drink, or do you say you've had just one glass of wine? Do you refuse to answer the question altogether? If you find yourself in that situation, it is almost certain that the officer already believes you have been drinking. Police usually don’t ask how much a driver has had to drink during a routine stop for speeding in the middle of the day without reason to suspect alcohol consumption. Regardless of your answer, the officer will likely tell you to step out of the car.
