What the Critics Are Saying
“Builds a moving portrait of grief and the space it takes up in your life even when you refuse to call it by its name.”
“Reckons with so many of the ethical questions that most true-crime media avoids in order to keep feeding our insatiable appetites for more real-life horror.”
“Instead of a retread of Serial, this new series uses its visual medium to the fullest, showing us everything we only heard about in the podcast.”
“With The Case Against Adnan Syed, Berg isn’t just adding to Serial’s story. She’s challenging the playbook for how true-crime stories get told.”
