Hardly worth the effort of having to fast forward every five (5) minutes to ignore another five (5) minutes of just more commercials. The series portrays the life and crimes of convicted murderer Malcolm Webster. I give each of the three (3) part series an abysmal 4 out of 10 IMDB rating. The Widower is a British television drama originally broadcast in three one-hour instalments on ITV in 2014.
DATELINE THE WIDOWER SERIAL
A total bore with very little insight into the ego maniac and unproven serial killer named Thomas Randolph. A Las Vegas woman is murdered in an apparent home invasion, launching investigators on a 13-year odyssey to eight states. The murder of a Las Vegas wife and mother pits detectives against her wily husband who has many secrets and four dead wives. That is pure abuse by NBC to sell this quasi documentary as a three (3) part series and then populate it with five (5) minutes of story line then (5) five minutes of commercials, wash, rinse, and repeat, with five (5) minutes of story line then (5) five minutes of commercials. 1 - 'My Wifes Been Shot' After a night out with her husband Tom, Sharon Randolph is shot dead in her home in an apparent botched burglary. This was a three (3) part series but what is most evident is that of the four (4) hours of coverage almost fifty (50) percent of the content was heavily laden with commercial fillers. Having said that murder is a vile crime and should be punishable by execution upon convicted the producers did a lousy job of editing this special three (3) part series. I do feel great sympathy for the families who lost their three (3) beloved mothers while being married to the suspected and yet to be convicted Thomas Randolph.
