    Remember Geraldo Rivera and Al Capone's vault? This is the same thing. All sorts of hype and absolutely nothing to show for it. If Amaryllis Fox had any credibility before this show, she has surely lost it now. I suspect the people who put up the money for this and saw it go swirling down the drain, decided that a second season of nothing but circumstantial evidence wasn't worth it.

    It's a bad and Bollywood type documentary.A lot of splicing, awful eye contacts and the CIA's so called 'former operative' Fox was talking too much. In a simple conversation, 1 sentence was from an expert and 10 sentences were coming from Fox. Disgusting attitude. Every time, the worthlessness tryouts of linking Ripper and Holmes seemed pretty blunt.Each time, an irrelevant object was too much for that Fox. That's interesting' was hear 80-100 times at least throughout the show. Dullness at the best. The way she was acting, had to make me me forget all the joy that I intended to have before watching the show. History channel is a turd these days. The background music had no points. Showing same clips again and again and again. Ew...

    First of all, I want to say that I am pleased that some attention is being given to serial killer H. H. Holmes. This individual deserves some study, being a brilliant, prolific killer of the late 1800s.A lot of the so-called "evidence" is not compelling in the least, which makes me wonder why Jeff Mudgett is so heavily invested in proving that his ancestor was also Jack the Ripper. I am guessing that the Holmes-Ripper connection was established in order to attract viewers and advertisers. The entire series should be taken with a huge grain of salt. If one does not take any of this too seriously, it is entertaining and somewhat informative. I am a bit skeptical of the "evidence" presented, although I did enjoy seeing some of the locations where pertinent events took place.

    Eloquently or Not This Program still proves to be insightful and VERY Entertaining. It's too Easy to haphazardly make judgments, about such a Famous Cold Case. But the facts are too Endearing to ignore! Say what you want about American Programming, But the History Channel has brought life, at the very least a new dialog for the younger generation to form their own opinions.The fact that H.H Holmes's own descendant, is the soul force behind the show's existence doesn't take ANYTHING Away from the validity of the claims. It's a tale everyone whats to know the end to.It's a 6 part series, And I for one am going to stay tuned to see if Holmes's Lost Time can be accounted for!
