Yesterday, I bingewatched the "True" story (six part series) on HBO Max: The Murders at White House Farm. I'll refrain from providing spoilers, but this mini-series is about what initially appeared to be the murder-suicide of four victims (grandparents and grandchildren) by the mentally disturbed daughter/mother of the six year old twins, and the police investigation that followed. Although this incident occurred prior to the use of DNA evidence, the forensic evidence and other issues concerning how the case was handled is still relevant today. Great writing, direction, acting, etc... I'd highly recommend it!

I started it last night and am half way through. I think it's good not great but worth watching for sure!

The cast is a Game of Thrones reunion.

Wel, gosh, why would HBO rebroadcast this British series? Gee, I wonder. It couldn't have anything to do with that title, could it? No, of course not.

It has nothing to do with American politics or our White House!!! The name of the location where these heinous crimes occurred was "White House Farm" and the murders occurred in the early 1980's, but the series was only recently produced. Trust me on this: There is no nexus between these murders, the docu-drama, and our political situation here in the U.S.

I'm familiar with the story, but you miss my point entirely. Why did the people at HBO choose to rebroadcast this series? The title is the reason.

The series was originally broadcast in the UK in January of 2020.

You've got to give me a little credit for knowing up from down.
