Like many of the reviews already here, I found this show to be a (slightly) more tasteful version of the American show "1000 Ways to Die."
I did enjoy the overall presentations of the events and circumstances of each individuals demise. In most cases the performances were respectful, if a bit over dramatic, and the science and explanations of each event were well presented and quickly became my favorite part of the show.
However; like my fellow reviewers, I found the show's minor attempts at dark humor were entirely unnecessary. Unfortunately this isn't the reason as to why I have given the show such a low rating. My biggest criticism comes from the reporting of various facts and details regarding the individuals featured in the program. After hearing about one of the cases featured in the show, I would often try to learn more about them. A quick google search would allow me to read on about the case, and usually exposed a facet or detail that the show had gotten wrong. Changed names, wrong locations, or misreported circumstances were a frequent discovery while I was watching this show, and the primary reason why I cannot rate it any higher.
