MINDHUNTER is based on the 1996 book Mind Hunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit, by former special agent John Douglas and Mark Olshaker. For years, Douglas pursued some of the most notorious serial killers and rapists, developing profiling techniques to catch them. The book goes behind the scenes of some of his highest-profile cases, including the man who hunted prostitutes in Alaska, the Atlanta child murderer, and Seattle's Green River killer. To hone in his profiling methods Douglas interviewed and studied a skew of serial killers. Several book and TV characters have been based in part on him, including Jack Crawford in Thomas Harris' The Silence of the Lambs, Will Graham on Hannibal and Jason Gideon on Criminal Minds.

I had heard really good things about this show. Then to hear recently that the Executive Producer has stated the show is 'done for now', it brought the show back to the forefront, so I decided to binge the first season over two nights. Excellent.
What a fantastic soundtrack too, and ending the season with a great Led Zeppelin song... Brilliant!!
Great Acting with a so so script that gets better. Needs something. A good watch all the same. Very Slow Start..
No. Nearly two years.
