Your Worst Nightmare is a 60-minute ID network true crime show. This narrated show blends reenactments of key events with commentary from law enforcement, criminal justice professionals, and friends and family of the victims.
I love murder shows and I've watched just about every one I can get my hands on and this one is one of my absolute least favorites. It focuses so much on the reenactments and not the police investigation. There should be a healthy mix for each side of the story - what the victim is going through and what the police are doing. This show just doesn't have that healthy mix. Instead it's an uncomfortable reenactment with really bad acting and a mediocre voice narrator. Also, sometimes they go overboard with some of the police/detectives on the show that talk about god. It's just weird and misplaced. I prefer when detectives or professional people on murder shows (not families of the victims) are a little more neutral when expressing their beliefs. For example, on homicide hunter, Joe Kenda will make passing comments on a higher power or "something" and keep it fairly neutral. It just seems more professional to me. Regardless though, this show could be improved a lot by having maybe a script writer for what the professional people/detectives/police on the show are saying and show more of the investigation instead of bad actors fake screaming and crying as villains over act creepy/evil behavior.
