Do you like watching real crime documentaries?

I’m binge watching those on Netflix. Especially the ones about serial killers from the 70s to early 2000s. Something is just compelling about them. Could be too dark at times and the cold cases are just haunting & depressing.
Yet, the best part is when the killer gets caught and justice is served at the end. Gives me a thrill of some sort. Guy I’m seeing says I have more balls than him watching that stuff lol

99% of the time it is a genre I skip and don't find interesting (serial killers in particular are something I have no desire to watch, I think they are vile humans and I don't even want that in my mind)

but once in awhile something comes along, which maybe interesting for other reasons, and also just so happens to be "true crime" so I will watch it

The most recent example would be The King Who Never Was ... in this specific case, if nothing else, at least the Corsican scenery is interesting

to me the best documentaries are generally focused on the environment, science, travel, food, and some other stuff
