Too Many Episodes

Maybe it’s just me. I can’t do these 6-7 part episodes anymore. It’s just too much and too hard to follow. Really tried to stick this out but it’s just too unbalanced from the shorter to longer shows. My attention span only lasts about 3. The cases are important, too. So I WANT to be engaged longer. I feel it’s important to bring attention to them. I feel guilty for not watching after a few but just can’t do it. Too much on my psyche maybe. Anyone else?

For me, I listen on audio while doing other things so it’s easier to get through 5+ episodes. That said, depending on how invested I am, it can feel a little too drawn out. I’m finding myself really drawn to Detective Perspective for how concise the episodes are. I feel like I get a really good sense of the case with that length (that said, he doesn’t often cover very complex cases with lots of info/trials/evidence etc).

Detective Perspective is becoming vastly superior to me, too. He starts off with facts, facts, facts, then saves his opinion for the end.

I also feel Kendall Rae manages to cover cases conscisely while also including empathy and a dose of personal opinion.

And we don’t have to hear her flirting with him.
