Web of Death Season 1 Review — Hulu’s best true crime
​docuseries to date

By M.N. Miller, - 1-20-2023
We review the Hulu true crime series Web of Death season 1, which was released on the streaming service on January 19th, 2023. 
My main complaint with Hulu's build-up of true crime docuseries to date is not the apparent competition between its rival, Netflix It’s the fact that most seem to be repacking old 20/20 murder mysteries. No surprise most of the new Hulu ventures are from the ABC News division. Where ABC garners acclaim with critically acclaimed documentaries like Aftershock and Jacinta their true crimes series can be tacky and even patronizing.

However, their latest venture has an exciting angle and manages to take fresh looks at engrossing murder cases that are as good as rival true crime shows such as Dateline and 48-Hours  ​

​ABC Tests New Model for ‘20/20’ as Viewers Demand More News Programming

By Brian Steinberg- Feb 26, 2019
"20/20"Amy Robach and David Muir aren’t in the business of making movies, but at ABC, they have gotten involved in the newsroom equivalent.
The two hosts of "20/20" have been instrumental in an intriguing experiment the Walt Disney network has been conducting with the 40-year-old news-magazine. For several weeks, ABC has run versions of the show that are two hours long and have fewer of the trappings usually associated with the format. Gone for the most part are voice-overs from the anchors, who instead are seen interviewing people integral...

By Jethro Nededog - March 12, 2015 
The executive and GM discusses broadcaster’s push into original series and her personal ”Holy Grail“ in TheWrap’s ”Office With a View“
Lessons have been learned at PBS from the ratings successes of “Downton Abbey” and Ken Burns’ “The Roosevelts,” which have both broken network ratings records. As a result, PBS is pushing harder into original series production.
In addition to a co-production deal with BBC, in which the media organizations are planning up to 10 new specials together, PBS has also greenlit its own original Civil War-era drama from Scott Ridley and is moving forward on original digital series.
At the same time, PBS’s chief programming executive and general manager of General Audience Programming, Beth Hoppe, said...
