    Love & Death

    ★★★½

    As stated in my review for Candy, I actually watched Love & Death before I watched Candy, not realising that both of the shows were based on the same true crime and murder.

After the first episode had ended, I immediately had to binge the next two episodes. Most of the first episode plays like a story about a teenage boy who shot his father dead. Showing no emotion or remorse for the killing, are we witnessing a sociopath with no empathy?…
