Watched on Netflix (or other streaming channels)

I'm currently watching a show called Mindhunter on Netflix. It's  fictionalized/biographic account of Ted Kaczynski  (Played by Paul Bettany) and the FBI profiler trying to pin him down.  Sam Worthington plays the FBI profiler.  Not as mystical and entrancing as the original Michael Mann's Manhunter with William Peterson as a profiler (that film spawned Silence of the Lambs) but it's still good nonetheless.  Good acting. It's on streaming.

You must have a better subscription.
I can't get it until October 13th. 

See I think I'm confused. I was watching this and it was called Manhunt...Sam Worthington and Kaczynski.  But when my Netflix sends me prompts it says "Mindhunter"  so I think "Mindhunter" is the series they are kicking off but doesn't have Worthinton and "Manhunt" is the pilot series. It's just another series about profilers.  Both are based ont he John Douglas works and writings  (the origins of profiling as a science. I think John Douglas is making a lot of money off his FBI days) But if profiling is depicted right I find it fascinating. So, sorry about my misinformation.  It's easy to confuse people are who aren't paying close attention. I'm sure you can find "Manhunt" with Worthington right now.

I'm sure he is, I think he always has. I read at least one of his books MANY years ago. I also find profiling to be fascinating.
I just hope this show or series is done right and not dramatized with cheap acting like so many others.

Or just really bad formulaic formatting. A lot of times the actors aren't so bad but it's just written like crap.

 Yep it's often both. I'm probably different that most but I like shows like "the first 48" more than shows like all those NCI shows.
The first 48 has no actors and no one wrote a script. It's real detectives and it's real suspects,criminals,witnesses etc.

A kind of funny show that seems cheap to me is Joe Kenda in "Homicide Hunter". He is the real deal and I like the way he talks.
But the show goes back in time to the 70's when he was working and they make kind of a half ass  attempt at recreating the 70's.
You see new buildings and new cars etc LOL
