I'm hugely addicted to the ID channel. I get free Dish in this apartment I moved into a year ago, and I literally had to create my own custom dish channel that doesn't include ID ( or OWN, or msnbc ) because one glance on the onscreen schedule to see what they're covering, made me sabotage my progress in blogging, building my app, etc.

So I don't see the channel when I channel surf, but I allow myself to go to it on weekends. It's so fascinating. I think I enjoy the aspect of how the detectives track these people and catch them.

I've read at least 15 true crime books as well, but stopped that, because that's on a whole 'nother level of time expenditure.

For yourself as someone who will write about it, that's perfect research is always good. Best wishes on that
