With their eyes set on a long-haul truck driver named Ronald Pergman, the team of investigators rushes to make sure that nobody falls victim to his crimes again. We’re starting off with a recent premiere from ABC: Big Sky.Ĭody Hoyt and Cassie Dewell are partners and private detectives who are investigating the case of two missing girls who were kidnapped somewhere along a remote highway in Montana.Īfter joining forces with Hoyt’s ex-wife Jenny (also an ex-cop), they discover that these two girls aren’t the only victims. With that being said, we’ve put together a master list of the best TV shows about serial killers to satisfy that true crime junkie in you – without bringing the paranoia of an actual true crime! Big Sky, ABC (2020 – present) Either way, series about serial killers can get really fascinating!

Other times, these shows go down the procedural path and show the viewers the process by which these killers get caught and apprehended. Sometimes, these shows even attempt to delve into the circumstances that led to the killer’s proclivity for, well, killing, as well as the possible psychosis that has affected their minds.

On the other hand, when you’re watching a scripted TV show about the same subject, the absurdity and unrealistic aspects of it take over and for a second, you kind of forget that serial killers do actually exist and have committed atrocious crimes in the past. The reality of crime and serial killers can be pretty terrifying when the podcast you’re listening to or the docuseries you’re watching really gets into the nitty-gritty of things.

Is that accurate? Yup, that sounds exactly like me, too.

However, since you love the genre so much and can’t stay away, you decide that a fictional, scripted show about serial killers is the best kind of breather from true crime. Let me guess: you’re probably here because you’re somewhat of a true crime junkie, right? Maybe the podcasts on your regular rotation are getting way too real so you need to take a bit of a break from real-life crime. We may earn a small commission from qualifying purchases.
