The First 48 Ratings & Reviews
- Julie Jones12 januari 2026This is just about my all-time favorite TV show. It follows real homicide detectives as they work to solve actual cases. You get to ride along with them and see how they put together the clues and catch their suspects. This show is beautifully produced, visually and structurally, with a very real sense of compassion for the families and friends of the victims.
