More Critic Reviews for Murder in the Bayou Season 1 All Critics (4) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (1) SKIP IT. There are better true-crime docuseries out there. Sep 13, 2019 | Full Review… Joel Keller Decider Murder in the Bayou might be set up for guilty pleasure viewing except for the effort it puts into establishing the context of the community and the crimes and the empathy behind the camera. Sep 13, 2019 | Full Review… Dan Fienberg Hollywood Reporter Top Critic Has strong echoes of the Southern Gothic genre in filmed drama... That's partly about the visual language (the series looks amazing), but chiefly it's because of the enormous gap between the wealthy and the dirt poor. Sep 20, 2019 | Full Review… Karl Quinn The Age (Australia) Top Critic Director Matthew Galkin and journalist Ethan Brown compile riveting interviews with those around the murders to paint an ever more disturbing picture. Sep 18, 2019 | Full Review… Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Top Critic View All Critic Reviews (4) Audience Reviews for Murder in the Bayou: Season 1 5d ago Truly one of the best documentaries I have seen in years. Filmmakers do an amazing job at focusing on the families and lives of the victims while explaining the many different theories as to how such a sad situation is possible in this country. A devastating must watch. Carl J Sep 27, 2019 Yet again, if you want to have justice you've got to have the money buy. Excellent documentary and truly moving. CJ K Sep 20, 2019 Well done, tragic case.
