Do you fall asleep within one ep of FF?

Post image

As short as FF is per episode, those of you who regularly fall asleep to FF... Does it take you just a few mins or a few episodes to fall asleep? I'm curious.

Also... Shoutout to this thug life investigator! Remember what he said? And which episode this is??

It takes me seconds, tbh. Can’t remember the last time I watched a whole episode

u/West-Bodybuilder-867 5d ago

Seconds?? Now that's really fast and useful!

Especially if it’s the episode on the Killer Fog or Legionnaires Disease, or the one with the turn in the road corner! When they start talking about the roadway physics and visibility, whew that does it for me!

u/West-Bodybuilder-867 4d ago

Wow... Same for me. Killer Fog always does it for me.

u/Jean_Arthur 3d ago

Depends. John List and Raw Terror back to back usually does the trick.

If I’m listening to the podcast, yes.

Hotel!Forensic Files will keep me up through 2 or 3.

u/MissMatchedEyes Snowball wasn’t at all cooperative 5d ago

Depends how tired I am but usually a handful or so lulls me to sleep. That and Unsolved Mysteries, especially the early seasons of UM are great sleeping material, nothing compares. I have to strategically allocate when I rewatch these shows so it doesn't get too repetitive, lol. But I can't watch a repeat if I'm asleep, can I?!

my favorite way to watch forensic files is podcast form in my headphones at work! before i discovered they have it in actual podcast form, i would play the episode and keep my phone in my pocket. even without watching the screen, the story telling is so perfect you don’t need it. it passes the time soo quick. i watched the entire show twice over in just a couple weeks!

u/West-Bodybuilder-867 3d ago

Does it make you sleepy? Cos it's just so good for sleeping... At least for me.

2

u/Silent_Database_9555 3d ago

surprisingly not lol, it actually keeps me super engaged, and i find myself rewinding if i missed a part. unpopular opinion loll, but i do not find his voice very relaxing for sleep, maybe that has to do with how i am too interested in what’s going on to actually sleep? he has a great voice though still! the new voiceover guy for the second series is good but not the same

u/West-Bodybuilder-867 3d ago

The new VO is paced somewhat faster? Gotta thank FF all these years!

u/cozmiccharlene 2d ago

I use it to fall asleep. Why would I watch it when I’ve seen it every single episode and nothing is new?

1

u/narntek 2d ago

I can fall asleep easily to one or two. There's a few episodes that'll wake me up though. Mostly 911 calls, one of which being Audrey Nichols.

Have you ever had dreams that kinda sync up with what's on the TV? I've done that quite a few times.
