Let me start by saying I love Investigation Discovery. I'm constantly looking for shows on ID that I haven't seen and I just recently located Nightmare Next Door. After watching, I deliberately came here looking for reviews to see if anyone else felt as I did about the narration and, lo and behold, almost everyone did. I like the stories. But ID missed the boat on the narration here by trying to make it lighthearted and humorous. Not only are the puns/jokes/metaphors ridiculous, they are completely inappropriate in this setting. The show is talking about murder and the producers of this show think that is something to joke about? The victims and families deserve more respect than this. Narration should be serious and fact-based. Period. Shame on you, ID. You have disappointed me.

I can't believe this show is even on the air. I just watched one episode about the investigation surrounding the sexual assault and murder of a little girl. The narrator makes horrible puns and jokes throughout the episode. I'm really confused as to why this format was approved for something with such serious subject matter. The episodes are very disjointed. They will be in the middle of talking about the investigation, and then randomly add in personal facts about the investigators. For example, two or three minutes were dedicated to talking about how the investigator was really good at making homemade pizza. It's a very odd mishmash of a show.

WTF in the world is wrong with this program??? The music and narration are both completely inappropriate. Like its some ironic post modern dark comedy or something? F@$%ing weird..... what a piece of sh@@ program.The narrator sounds like Joe Swanson off the family guy, and music and video "tricks" are lifted from one of those sh#$$y Paris Hilton reality shows from early 2000 or something? Garbage.How could this be so awful?Who was involved in the production of this trash?Worst thing I have ever experienced in my life!Buy it only to destroy it.

OK. I didn't want to like this show, but I can't help it! Nightmare Next Door is really engaging!! My wife was watching, and I sat down with her for just a moment. Got sucked right in. The stories are great and it looks good. And I really like the writing, and the narrator guy. It all really work. It's the only one of my wife's shows that I'll actually watch with her. The other crime shows she watches are just not that well done. They seems cheap. This one is good quality. I think the shows on Investigation Discovery look like they are getting better. I couldn't watch it before. But I do like the Nightmare Next Door. Wife shows that guys can watch too!
