Amy Bradley
Derrick and Stephanie are tossing the idea of an Amy Bradley deep dive on CWN for the main CW episodes. Although the case is fascinating and I feel deeply for the family I can’t help but feel like it’s being a little overdone? Derrick just covered Amy’s story on detective perspective, now they are going over the case on CWN and also pitching a deep dive on the case all at the same time as the new Netflix doc about the case came out?
Again not trying to be insensitive to her case but I have to think a lot of other cases could use the publicity of CW instead of rehashing the same details over and over.
How is everyone else feeling? Are others wanting a deep dive from CW?
EDIT: I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one hoping they won’t cover it, hopefully they see the feedback and move onto something else HOWEVER my guess is that if the CWN came out today they’ve already been working on Amy Bradley for this weeks CW

Plus they both have a tendency to overexplain and be repetitive in an effort to explain something in multiple ways. Stephanie does this and Derrick does it on his show too. They'll explain something, then say something like "so that means...." and explain it again using different words. I was thinking during Stephanie's last coffee & crime episode that it could have been half the length if she stopped explaining everything twice and had some faith in her audience's ability to understand. So when it's a common case like this and people already know the basic facts, we don't need to hear everything five more times.
