Forensic documentaries show actual footage from crime scenes and autopsies, and sometimes include re-enactment of crimes. HBO's Autopsy series began running in 1994 and wrapped up in 2008. It featured actual photos from crime scenes and autopsies as well as commentary from the forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Baden.
While it might seem that only the most truly depraved of souls would be interested in such a program, there is educational value for individuals who might be interested in pursuing careers in criminal justice, forensics, medicine, or psychology. I am personally interested in true crime shows because during my entire life, I've wondered what can cause a person to completely lack empathy and to enjoy hurting and killing others.
