Caleb D @RT30781610 10/11/2024 I strongly recommend watching the episodes in chronological order (8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - 9). You’ll notice a lot of detail you’d miss if you watched the episodes in the official order. I respect the creators for taking a risk by ordering the episodes the way they did, but it was a blunder that somehow manages to garble an excellent show into an incoherent mystery crime thriller. The show was well worth watching, particularly due to its realist atmosphere and nuanced psychological portraiture of all the characters.

A major diversion from the structure of the previous season wraps the tragedy of Andrew Cunanan in dense mystery that keeps the audience stunned for the whole ride. Brilliant cinematography remains core in this season though lacking in comparison to its predecessor. I only have one real nit pick and that is a sting operation carried out near the end looks so unbelievably low budge it would've been better to just have three squad cars show up, but other than that this season is another solid piece of television.

But everyone involved with this project did so well! This show is not only well written even with the fictional elements of the story but it’s also very well shot, and the soundtrack is amazing. Overall extremely underrated I have introduced many to it. See more Chadd J @RT99579624 01/28/2024 I enjoyed the acting and writing. I really enjoyed the reverse chronological order format, they did that very well. The story did get boring from time to time and I felt the plot did get a little lost toward the end. I think it should have a different title because, it was not really about the assassination, it was about Andrew and how he became him. It would have been much better if the plot didn't go back and forth to random people at times that made no sense on why are we watching this particular scene. See more 04/07/2022 Really amazing show. Adds great drama to the killings of Andrew Cunanan while telling the story in an interesting, backwards sort of fashion. Darren Criss did a great job at portraying him, his expressions, motions, and way he talks was phenomenal acting. The characters are easy to sympathize with. I also really enjoyed the performance of Penélope Cruz. Made me cry. The scene where Andrew kept repeating "accept it" was my absolute favorite and a work of art. Definitely take the time to watch this one, as it is only 9 episodes and not a second is wasted on unnecessary dialogue. 5 stars!
