It's seems the negative reviews have some sort of ulterior motives, anyone interest in shows involving unsolved crimes/murders would find this show interesting.I can say despite the negative reviews the families who live in the wakes of these murders are happy to see some attention and light shined on these cases.

This is not good. It's a bad show, a very bad show. Please don't spend your money on it. They have good material to work with, but would rather be on camera themselves than investigating. This is not a documentary. This is actors acting like documentarians. I don't mind watching liars tell a good story, but they are not very good at it. They obviously lie all the time and they have obviously asked other people to lie on camera. There is a lot of biased documentary, but this is some of the most amateurish garbage I have watched since Killer Legends.

What started out as a interesting documentary on unsolved murders across America turned into a SJW-police bashing propaganda message. The directors padded this series with repeated footage and pointless dead end journeys. This could have easily been a great 90min. documentary. I would like to see more work like "Cropsey" which I highly recommend.

If anyone could make serial killings boring, it's A&E — and this rubbish "documentary" about the Gilgo Beach murders (among other things) proves it. Following the tried and true format of similar winners like In Search of Bigfoot, Ghost Hunters, UFO Secrets etc., The Killing Season features dubious "experts", a meandering storyline that doubles back on itself so many times it runs the risk of disappearing up its own sphincter, two befuddled amateur sleuths who spend more air time on themselves than anything else, and a complete rehash of the whole bogus mess after every commercial, so boozed up channel switchers can try to catch up. Funniest of all is the prime serial killer authority — a German internet "Websleuth" whose unfortunate accent is a brilliant evocation of Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno. This is simply an attempt to cash in on the popularity of controversial but authentic documentaries like Making of a Murderer. After six episodes, you know no more about the case than you did before you started watching. It's really an exercise in stretching out thin material and a thin budget to as many episodes as possible. There are endless "planning" sessions with the team, sudden revelations that turn into blind alleys, and constant video calls with mysterious informants whose faces are as blurry as their stories. Just pure unrelenting rubbish. Shame on everyone who contributed to this travesty.
